2 windsocks blowing in opposite directions.
« on: April 20, 2021, 06:19:19 pm »
Hello,

Just bought Basel on the MSFS Marketplace.
I spawned at Gate 22 - looked behind the aircraft on the grass - 2 windsocks side-by-side - blowing in opposite direction.

Hopefully we can just keep the correct one??   ;-)

Thanks.

It's likely you see two windsocks, one from the default scenery and another one from our scenery, since it's must have been moved in the France world update, so the Exclusion we made for the previous version must be updated too.

Dear FSDreamteam,

Yes the MSFS default windsock exclusion needs to be updated, however as reported since February, all your windsocks are wrong oriented, blowing against the wind instead of with the wind.

This is a common mistake many scenery developpers do in MSFS since default placement needs an additional 180° rotation, I think a quick windsock sanity check should be integrated to the testing routine...

Can we please expect a fix anytime soon?

Thanks in advance for your support
Best regards
Antoine

No, they are not, we updated all our sceneries already. The only problem left to fix is the exclusion area instead.
