August 30, 20205 yr How many other virtual pilots out there have discovered airports whose tower building is nonexistent? My home field is KPAO, in Palo Alto, CA USA. I've been virtually flying from there for about 20 years, and this is the first version of MSFS I've owned which did NOT have its tower building present. Rather surprised about that omission, figured that if any building should exist at an air field, if it has a tower it should be there. Definitely a bit annoyed about this, but at least the tower does exist as far as the radio is concerned. General editorial: One problem with attempting to create so much detail is that flaws in that detail are that much more jarring when noticed. Overall what bothers me the most about the MSFS 2020 terrain engine, at least when using the High-End preset, is the presence of "flash" sticking up all over the place, just like a badly molded polystyrene model airplane kit. I've found that any preset lower than High-End makes the autogen look like the aftermath of WW3...absolutely worthless IMO. One is much better off with P3D/XP/FSX-SE in that situation.
