Hard surface question

[OleBoy]

Firstly, my apology for asking here in this forum, as my "?" is off-topic. Considering "most" do not go deeper into the forums, I thought to hopefully get my question answered here.

If I create a hard surface, do things like autogen grass, bushes, trees etc, protrude through it when placed?

Not if you create a ground poly Don, afaik. Ask at FSDeveloper: they're right into scenery creation there.

Hi Tom. I had a feeling you (if you were around) would try to assist me.
I considered FSdeveloper, thanks. I'll go over for a visit.

Have yourself an enjoyable end of the year

The answer depends on your understanding of a hard surface. The rendering in FSX/P3D works in layers that have certain properties, some allow autogen (and need exclusions if it is not intended), some exclude autogen by principle and need to be annotated. Are you intending something specific?
