Are they ever going to fix the warping runway center lines and taxiway lights placed on the taxiway pavement?
Hello! 
With the world hub tool this can be easily fixed. If you don’t know what that is, the World Hub is a tool where users can edit airports in the sim using the SDK and submit them to MS to have them place inside the sim.
Most airports are AI generated, and taxiway lines are placed based on AI. Where the taxiway lights are placed depends on where the taxiway lines are placed. They aren’t relative to where pavement is placed, if that makes sense.
For example, the set distance for where taxiway lights are placed may be 10 Meters from the line, but the pavement is 15 feet from the line. Since the SDK is set to place taxiway lights to be 10 meters from the line, it will be on the pavement.
Let me know if you need further clarification

The centerline jobs are due to people/the AI/whatever not lining the nodes up. There is a way to straighten them, but it is cumbersome. This is especially so if you’re dealing with a line that has multiple branches off the trunk, like a ramp path that has offshooting parking paths. Then, every time you adjust one, you have to go back, select them all, and straighten them again.
It would be nice if they were automatically kept in alignment between two selected end nodes and you could still make lateral adjustments for the nodes in between. Lots of QoL improvements still necessary for the SDK.

Where do I find that tool?
Thank you!
The world hub has not been released to the public. Only a select number of simmers ever got ahold of the beta for it. It was suppose to drop several months back, but it continues to be slow rolled.
Yeah Im not going to even bother fixing something the developers should have done or should do.
There’s definitely a lot of understanding that is gained from being involved in the world hub editing process. You’ll end up seeing why the AI did what it did and the how the original limitations of the initial AI sweep set us on the course we are today. You’ll see how successive updates to the aerial are difficult to reconcile with any official current database or chart because of the lag time. You’ll also see the tools, objects, and workflow that are fairly lacking (despite some people learning how to overcome it pretty well).
More than anything, you’ll see why there are hundreds of thousands of labor hours necessary to update the tens of thousands of global airports to what exists today, only to need updating again tomorrow. It is a monumental ask.
