# Generated 28 points for 'Atlantis'. Ready to use in Orbiter. To use with Waypoint MFD: http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=5831

And the same without the comments gives me a CTD. Both tries writes in the Orbiter.log :

Great ! I'm trying to make a route file, but this code gives me a runtime error:

Hi SolarLiner,

yes it's not corect the parser looks for a runway but can't find anyone.

I will corect this in the next beta that a runway is not reqired.
Does it work if you add the following lines:

BEGIN_RUNWAYS
0 1
END_RUNWAYS

?

Best regards
Topper

 

[SolarLiner]

Same issue: Runtime error or CTD. With the same Orbiter.log.

 

[Topper]

Hi SolarLiner,
can you check if this file is working?
I can load this in the MFD...
Best regards
Topper

 

[SolarLiner]

Even this file makes me a CTD ...
Thanks for the reply !

 

[Topper]

Hi SolarLiner

Thank you for testing!
Can you check if this verison can load the file "test.route" i've attached?
[edit]
attachment removed and updated at orbit-hanga...

 

[SolarLiner]

Great ! It works !

 

[Topper]

Great ! It works !

Ok thank you updatet at oh...

 

[Topper]

Does someone can explain why this add on was voted with "1 / 5" at orbithangar? Does something is not correct with this add on? I do not take that personally, I want to know why? If there are Bugs i want to fix them...

Thanks

Topper

I've just rated it 5 out of 5. Editing the route file is a little fiddly but I've got a simple HAC for Ascension now. I'll be testing it out in a T-38 over the next few days and will let you know how it goes.

topper - Any objections if I upload HAC type route files for Ascension?
