I haven't kept current with the code but AFAIK the elevation routines live in FGFS / src / scenery / hitlist.xxx The containing scenery tile for the point you are requesting elevation for *must* be loaded into the scenegraph for these to work I have forgotten exactly how to insure that an arbritrary tile is loaded and the code has probably changed anyway since I last worked on it HTH Norman > > But if you say "at runtime", you possibly mean to get terrain elevation > > while flying, so you can't simply teleport the aircraft to some lon/lat > > just to read out a value.
