One of the bugs I reported to Zendesk was an elevation issue on one of the taxiways at KINT. If anyone else here spotted it, it wasn’t mentioned. I just loaded up there with the 1930 patch and found that not only was the taxiway fixed, several other elevation issues were flattened out and several trees that weren’t supposed to be there are now gone too. Color me impressed!

Also the water is beautiful again and they added some missing airports like Malaga.

Pity they didn’t model it properly with the correct runway!

No they won’t model missing airports. They are automatically generated i believe like all 35,000 airports but sometimes the AI doesn’t recognize them automatically as an airport. Maybe due to quality of the satellite images.
Only the handcrafted airports are modelled by people.

I reckon you just got lucky by random because they were doing it anyway…
I’m not quite that cynical - I’m betting it was on of the “60 airports improvements based on community feedback” as listed in the release notes. I don’t have a lot of faith in humanity, but I still have at least some.
It seems they also improved some standard airports in Japan. I was just flying over one and i thought it was handcrafted but when i looked closer it had a standard control tower and buildings, but they were very well placed.
The stated that they were doing improvements across the board there, so this doesn’t surprise me. I’m just happy that Nagasaki was one of the new hand-crafted entries. It’s a great place to start from when touring the southern end of the country. I still haven’t had a chance to check it out yet, but I’m looking forward to it!
Is the Hiroshima monument modelled? Such an iconic building.
I haven’t been there yet, but my bet is they did, given all the other improvements.
I flew over there years ago and I will swear blind there was a “presence” the like of which I haven’t felt since visiting Auschwitz.
Are you just saying that from the patch notes? Seeing lots of posts that reflections no longer show on water making it look awful at night.
If you mean the concrete arch the resembles a bunker, try these coordinates as a custom waypoint:
34.392962, 132.452566
Thanks I will when I get back home.
The patch notes don’t mention anything about reflections, but I’m pretty sure that MS/Asobo are already aware - just like they were probably aware of the sensitivity menu about five minutes after 1830 was released. But honestly, if that’s the worst thing that’s “broken” with 1930, I’m not complaining!

For sure - def not the worst thing. I’m looking over the forums and seeing a lot not fixed or even worse, broken now. Hate that we’re on 2 week updates. Wish they could do hotfixes.
