Showing airports on map

Recommended Posts

Version 2.6.6

 It looks like the 2 menu buttons 'force map to show add-on airports' and 'show airports with soft or water runways' do exactly the same.

It might look like this depending on view but functionality is not the same at all.

Ok, I see the difference. But that brings me to another problem. With 'force add-ons'=off, it shows me a lot of airports as 'add-on' which are no add-ons at all.

With 'force add-on'= on, it shows just about every airport as add-on

Not a real problem for me, I just leave the switch off, but wanted to let you know anyhow.

The airports are probably detected wrongly as add-ons or you really have a lot of add-on airports.

Wrong detection can happen for some Navdata updates. Not sure which simulator you're using. MSFS?

You can exclude files and folders from the add-on detection in options on page scenery library.

Using P3D v5.1

I found all the extra add-ons airport are coming from the orbx library (north/south germany). By excluding (like you mentioned) that folder all is ok now

Thanks for your assistance
