Unexisting airports or default single-runway layouts

[legoboyvdlp]

Actually, I just added the .dats of the new airports. They are for BACKUP only.
The SVxy is the only one to worry about.
Oh, wow, thanks.

[IAHM-COL]

LOL. I know what you did.
Another topic is whether I think that SVMI repository is the logical place for you to back up unrelated files.

For a thought. Keep in mind, any file you add to a git repo, is most likely gonna be there to stay: for good!
you can't remove a file out. It doesn't really delete. (as in you can always recover it from git history as soon as it is "commited")
So, adding files senseless or for a unrelated backup purpose is counterproducing --at least--

BTW
What area do I need to construct? I see lots of new airport in the SVxy.dat file, and I don't know the boundaries of the terrain needed. Do you have a lat lon quadrant that would be ideal?
(as oppose of me mapping out those ICAOS to figure out)

@Lego
Sorry
I don't have the landclasses.
The area to construct is too large. I only got the landclasses for Caracas vicinity those days.
The database still down.. so that stinks badly...

[legoboyvdlp]

Yeah, that's okay. I've waited so long, I can wait a bit longer till they fix it.
Yeah, the database stinks.

I added all of Venezuela's airports to the .dat. Just to prevent that awful bug where you lose the airports....
So, I'l need to find a latlon which covers most of Venezuela. I don't want to waste your bandwidth when the database returns, so maybe I should not have put all he airports in?

[laserman]

I'm sorry, dlaser, but you must not have pulled recently,

why didn't you upload it to the gateway ?

[legoboyvdlp]

I THOUGHT I did, but then though stuck a feather in the ground and thought it would grow a hen, as my mother told me.

[IAHM-COL]

I added all of Venezuela's airports to the .dat.

Scrap that!
Just let me know what airports you did in fact modified.
we will construct the minimal amount of terrain needed to patch the scenery. Don't worry, I have my methods not to loose airports. Look per example the Geneve package or the Homey package. No airport gets lost.

Otherwise you are expecting to build a whole country (and more since the package is an squarey tile) in your package! for no further improvement?
I think a "optional" scenery package makes sense if you have improvements in the layout over terrasync. Otherwise: Why exactly do you want to rebuild the whole terrain for the whole country!?

[legoboyvdlp]

Yes, I will do that.
And the list is in the README.... they are the ones I have modified.
I will undo that.
Silly me.

[IAHM-COL]

I'm not following the readme quite correctly

Are all these modified: SVMI SVCS SVFM SVMP SVBL SVHG SVLS SVEP SVMG SVIE SVWM

[legoboyvdlp]

Whichever are in the README are modified.
All are modified.
But some are new. Those are BL through WM.
