Adding Taxiway Points creates tire marks and other artifacts

Version: 1.2.4

Frequency: Frequently

Severity: High

Bug description:
I am adding taxiway points to my airport rebuild in MSFS 2024 SDK and it is adding tire marks that I am unable to remove. I do not want to draw the taxiway surface as I already manually created them. I unchecked ‘Draw Surface’ which gets rid of the pavement but the tire marks are still there. I would prefer to add these marks manually as these do not display the proper locations, curves, etc for the marks. It also creates some whitish backgrounds and sharp lines as well at times.

Repro steps:
Create a taxiway path, uncheck ‘Draw Surface’ and you will likely see the tire marks. It does not happen on every taxi segment but does on most near curves/turns. It also creates some whitish backgrounds and sharp lines as well at times.

Hello @FlicMcFly ,

Did you try to change the default values of the opacity for the TaxiwayTireGum / TaxiwayTireStain in the airport archetype (Airport properties) ?
See the documentation here.
