Major Fix for Airport Configuration Files Implemented

Hi All!,


Sometimes major fixes may come from the most unexpected sources.

Intriguingly, Waldo (Wkitty42) had actually find a major bug in terrasync/terraGIT in the way Airport configuration files are located.
Furthermore, not only he finds the bug, but he finds the correct solution

https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic. ... 30#p294869

the following command seems to move the misplaced ones up one directory where they should reside...

Code: Select all

    cd /your/terrasync/Airports
    find . -type f -wholename './?/?/?/???.*' -execdir mv {} .. \;


AFAICT, they still work properly but i've only tested with a few...
BDF - Bradfield field, 38nm west of Brisbane, QLD, Australia
BD7 - Muddy Lake Field, 71nm east of Juneau, Alaska, USA
YB1 - Bush Strip, 38nm west of Brisbane, QLD, Australia
Y50 - Wautoma Muni
WBB - Stebbins, 45nm south west of PAUN (Unalakleet)
and some others randomly chosen...

After I verify this, within terraGIT, I proceeded as opportune, and implemented the fix

Now, in terraGIT 8500+ configuration files are now located as expected, and work properly

To obtain this fix

Simply update terraGIT



Have fun everyone,
(and safe landings)
