Loaded up at EGPR (no scenery mods) and taxied out to the sand runway. I’m in the middle of doing my preflight when I look out the window and all of the sudden the ocean has flooded onto the runways in big chunky blocks.
Anyone ever seen this before? I’m assuming its a bug but wasn’t 100% sure. This is an Asobo Official airport so found it extra strange this would happen.
Moved to User Support Hub Scenery & Airports for community support.
Never been to EGPR but PAJO is completely under water. I spent a week watching SDK tutorials so I could fix it. A simple exclusion polygon should take care of that for you.
Could be specific to steam users. I’m not seeing it on my MS-Store version:

thanks for taking the time to load up the airport and check it out.
so when I first loaded up in airport the water was where it was supposed to be. it wasn’t until like 15 mins into the mission during my runup that all of the water began creeping in. it almost felt like a high tide coming in, which would be a cool game mechanice…except I know that’s not a thing in MSFS!.
so now i’m at a loss of what could have caused it. if i hadn’t of grabbed a screenshot i bet people would have thought i was crazy 
Probably the tide has come in, wait 6 hours and it will be out again.
@ SinfulDanTheMan:
v1.37.5.0 is downloading on my PC now. I’ll re-test later & this time fly around the airport for a bit to see if the, er, “tide” appears… 
OK, I can’t repro on v1.37.5.0 either. Took off from EGPR, flew around the island, flew over the airport - no change, headed north, returned about 30 minutes later to the airport & landed. No change.
thanks for trying. maybe it was a 1-off bug. see if i can reproduce
Barra wasn’t in the sim until the UK world update. The update included a custom airport with plenty of terraforming and ground trimming.
If that airport isn’t installed i expect it’s a slack mess, as your experience seems to prove.
I made it long before Asobo and had to do a lot of fiddling to make the area behave.
I presume they installed the base elements and saved the refinement for the extra content.
