Why don't Jetways Connect

Why don’t my jetways connect? Also, when placing they always seem to connect
with the wrong end and so when you spin them around so that the ‘auto brains’
bit is supposed to connect they rotate into the ground.

So does this work for everyone else and only I have the problem?

Hi Sylvain, @FlyingRaccoon you quoted the following in another post: “That
said, If your question has not been answered, can only be answered by Asobo
and you end up stuck in your development, keep updating the post and tagging
me directly” and so I have here. Is there still an issue with Jetways? None of
mine connect nor do they play properly when placing. The extension always
seems to be backwards and when rotating stickup at odd angles. This is all in
the project I sent for YMML which I sent you for fixing crashes Pre SU7.
Another issue that never seemed to be fixed was with terraforming to say 1mt.
That is to say, making a ditch or raising the ground up or down in a small
area to lay a fence so it doesn’t disappear into the ground Hoping for some
feedback. Thanks

@Darwikey could you please take a look at this?

Hi Ironpot, Are they custom jetways with your models ? Could you send us a
minimal scene that repro the issue ? Regards, Xavier

Hi Xavier @Darwikey, did you see my comments? I’ve probably been replying to
myself….

Hi Ironpot, yes I have seen your comment. I will investigate it :slight_smile:

Hi Ironpot, I have repro and fixed your issue. It should happen only in the
scenery editor and not in-game. Unfortunately it’s too late to integrate the
fix in SU8. I have a workaround to “fix” jetways that go in the ground. Tick
and untick the “no snow” option in the scenery link. It will reset the
animation. Regards, Xavier

Hi Xavier. Thanks for looking at the issue. So to understand your reply: 1.
You have fixed the jetways not connecting? Is there something I can do in YMML
or is this an issue across MSFS and you are fixing for everyone in the release
after SU8 2. I understand the workaround for the jetways into the ground.
Will that go into the update after SU8 as well? Thanks. Philip
