Heliport on top of building

hey guys,

i have some trouble with my scenery.

I created a hospital in Blender with a heliport on top of it. Exported and set in the MSFS 2024 SDK. Everything is fine and the hospital is there.

Now i will define the heliport.

So i set an airport first, then i add a Helipad, the i add Parking position and add a taxiway point. Then i linked the with a taxiway path.

But my problem is to lift up the taxiway point and the parking position to the top of the hospital. Both are always snap to ground. But there is no checkbox to deselect “snap to ground”.

With the Gizmo it is not possible to lift up both objects.

So how i can set the parking position to the same level as my helipad?

Thanks.

ok, it seems the problem is the Airport ground level. Parking Points are connected to the airport ground level. And because Airports are always on ground, Parking Points are on ground level.

A helipad can set on top of a building.

My problem is to start with a Helicopter Cold & Dark. If i start from the helipad, all engines are ready.

It is not possible to start from a helipad Cold & Dark. (with HPG H145 helicopter)

Any solution?

Hey @QuadratZwerg495,

At the moment it is not possible to start cold and dark from a helipad.
Helipads are considered like runways, on the runway, the helicopter/plane will always be started.
We already have a bug for it in our backlog.

Best regard,
Romain
