Welcome to
Microsoft Flight Simulator’s SDK Q&A Platform!
Please take a moment to read the platform’s guidelines before you get started!
I thought it would be simple to add a pond at one of my newly created scenery airports - but no.
Did the usual polygon outline, then terraformed it to 3, then lowered the level of it just a wee bit, then added Water material. This did not work. So I tried adding Pond, also did not work.
Not sure if I am missing something or is the water feature broken in the SDK?
You need 2 polygons. One to make a hole for the pond, and another on top of it for the pond itself.
So I tried your suggestion many times and ways - still no water.
I did a Polygon Hole and terraformed and lowered a wee bit - see screen shot.
Then did a Polygon and checked WATER then tried POND as well as WATER - see screen shot.
Then I tried the Material Editor and chose ASOBO WATER - that only gave me grass.
@rhumbaflappy is correct,
Maybe the team can add some functionality to prevent adding polygons with multiple features that won't work when added together ( and updating the docu as well)
Another type that requires "exclusive" property is vegetation iirc
Already in the backlog @Boris_ ?
Hi @mamudesign ,
Such a feature is not planned but we will make sure to update the documentation with this information,
Thank you :)
Regards,
Boris
