Can we rename Runway without changing heading??

Featured Replies

HelloJust wondering if in the BGL code there is a way to rename the runways without having to change the heading? Or are these two automatically related? I ask this because in Architect2002 the numbering are automatically done based on heading. However I do want to alterate the numbers without affecting the physical heading of the RwysThanksMichel

Yes, in the SCASM code there is a different parameter for the number and for the heading, so you should be able to set each of them seperate.Here is the example code of one of the runways of my project:[tt]Runway( 52.3082041780009 4.79359954782726 Altitude 0.0 Heading 41.28 Length 6608 Width 148 ID 04 Surface -1 Markers 0 Lights 02 ThrLightsN 1 ThrLightsF 1 StrobesN 0 StrobesF 0 AprLN 3 AprLF 3 VasiSlopeF 3.0 VasiSideF 115 VasiDistF 2475 VasiSpaceF 0 VasiBarsF 8 )[/tt]As you can see there is a heading and an ID parameter.

If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can't be done.

Sure thing! I noticed that in Architect we can Edit the code without affecting the visual interface.The only sad thing about FS runways is that they can't be customized in both ends. This means we can't let's say remove a numbering from one tip and keep it on the other one. Thanks!Michel

No, that is indeed not possible with those runways.I have not really checked if the new XML code maybe allows you to do that.
