There is not yet a night lit line texture. If you have an art asset that you think would look good with night emissive lighting, please send me a png – I would like to see what the effect would be used for.

…and something much more important than that … Would it be possible to have lines (. LIN) with of texture night capacity? … Although I add a POL with a lighted platform effect … when night falls they all (I refer to LIN's) turn black. But when you illuminate them with landing/taxi lights they "recuperate" their color.

If it is in the bug base and is marked as open then I am aware of it but haven't fixed it yet.

Interestingly, while the dialog box announcing a "fatal error… must quit" waits for dismissal, the file can still be saved via the menu.

It also chokes at times trying to rearrange hierarchies, even more often when the X-Plane Object Properties window is open. Cmd_tabbing to another app or the Finder and back seems to be the equivalent of a Heimlich maneuver for that.

Hence my interest.
