Alpha 21 > HF4


Added


  • Loading an addon-bgl file where there is a single airport will also load any associated scenery object placements and user included exclusion rectangles.  This matches the behavior before the change of decompiler but load times are lower.
  • displayName (Comment) and group attributes added for Apron.
  • Instrument Landing System (ILS). See Instrument Landing System (ILS)
  • Comms (add, edit, delete).  No two way edit Dev Mode does not support comms but retains the source XML so source in ADE is protected.  See  Comms
