The sun’s elevation above (or below) the horizon is a dataref that can be read from a script, plugin or used for conditional rendering in full custom objects.

But the ATC system itself isn’t reprogrammable by users, it has no user-definable parameters that would alter its function in any way except for UTC time or weather conditions.

Thank you Mike!

And what’s nice is there’s a good variety of contributions from large airports, to remote bush airfields. If I could make one request, that would be to increase the frequency of the gateway scenery being included into X-Plane. Otherwise, keep up the awesome work!

I had trouble importing my ortho ref material while using the 1.80 so for months I used the 1.7.1 to import and then 1.80 to do my scenery work. I hope that this issue has been addressed in 2.0.
Thanks to all

(Facepalm) Thank you very much! 🙂

When it comes to airport operations rules, many things are valid from sunrise to sunset (certain RWYs, tower ops, etc.). Since sunrise and sunset happens at different times depending on the day of the year and the latitude of the airport, can you guys provide a hook into the astronomy calculations for use by airport authors?

WED2 rocks BTW

“View”
– “Toggle Navaids”
Seems to be working here.

The windsock is probably being culled based on the LOD settings of the object. As far as I know there is know way to alter the LOD distance of an object in WED; you would need to create your own object or hack the default resource.

Is there something special I should do?
