How does one go about changing the elevation of an airfield? Some airfields are way above the surrounding landscape. I now how to get the actual elevation by using the Z key,once I have a good idea of the elevation I want the actual airfield to be how do I go about changing it?

Hi GOSD, go into the global layer .csv file, there is a column in there to set altitude for your facility.
Worth then updating the .lib file just to make sure.
cheers,

Thank you for the info Daiwilletti , how do you update the .lib ? I made the changes in the global layer .csv file but they dont register in the game.

You need to run the csv file through the make_gsl.bat tool included in the Terrain SDK. It won't work unless you do. That will make you a new gsl.lib.

Glad it worked, GOSD. Sorry I didn't go into detail about creating the .lib file - I was dashing out.
