Custom Airport Issue

[dresoccer4 118]

So I just did a LNM DB refresh to add a couple new custom airports to the map (to get the yellow circles), however upon update completion, LittleNavMap went crazy and highlights every single airport. Did I discover a bug and how can I fix this? Cheers

If you do a search on the word Yellow, you will find a lot of posts about this.

Have a good weekend!

Should be fixed in the latest 2.6.18: https://albar965.github.io/release/2022/04/09/littlenavmap-stable-2618-released.html

I just downloaded the latest version 2.6.18 and there are still far too many yellow airports. With this version, not every airport is a custom airport like in the previous version, but most still are according to LNM.

Did you reload the scenery library? This is required to fix the issue.

I did, yes. That's actually when the problem appeared because I skipped the previous versions.

Now this is really strange. Can you post the section "Scenery" with the BGL paths from the airport information from one of the stock airports?
Do you use an add-on management tool? Are the add-on airport folders symbolic links or something?

Ok, this is so stupid of me. The additional yellow airports are from Black Square's Real Taxiways Europe/US. I used AddonManager to exclude them from LNM. But now I remember, I updated these addons recently and this replaced my symbolic links with the full directories, so they were always active and LNM picked them up as custom airports.

Sorry for the drama. But the problem is solved now. Thank you very much for your assistance.

No problem. 🙃

BTW: You can exclude unwanted add-on from yellow ring display in LNM options on page "Scenery Library Database". Add the folder to the lower list.
