Sam White 1214219 Posted October 21, 2015 at 08:58 PM Posted October 21, 2015 at 08:58 PM VRC Metacraft Forum[/url]"]Hi, For some reason some of the regions in my sector file are showing correctly and some are not, although - as far as I can tell - they are formatted in exactly the same way! This region - the blue background - appears: ;Blue_Background smrBlue N054.01.03.882 W004.45.09.288 N054.02.27.355 W004.27.28.773 N054.11.50.621 W004.26.34.349 N054.10.21.650 W004.49.46.279 This region - one of the aprons - does not appear: ;Area_Victor smrTaxiway N054.05.00.430 W004.38.13.336 N054.05.00.279 W004.38.13.019 N054.05.00.289 W004.38.12.962 N054.05.00.338 W004.38.12.922 N054.05.00.525 W004.38.13.303 N054.05.00.473 W004.38.13.343 The full sector file is here: https://w50.co.uk/vatsim/Images/EGNS%20VRC.sct2 Thanks for any help!

Board of Governors Nicholas Cavacini Posted October 21, 2015 at 09:28 PM Board of Governors Posted October 21, 2015 at 09:28 PM Check the order of the region definitions. If I remember correctly, VRC draws them in the order you define them so your first region definition would be your 'base layer'. Anything below that would be drawn on top of that base layer and so on. NickVice President - SupervisorsVATSIM Board of Governors Contact the Supervisor Team | Could you be a Supervisor?

Sam White 1214219 Posted October 22, 2015 at 05:19 AM Author Posted October 22, 2015 at 05:19 AM Thanks - I tried commenting out the green gr[Mod - Happy Thoughts] and blue background regions, but the regions still weren't showing. The strange thing is that the same region definitions work fine in EuroScope... VATSIM UK S2 Rated (Essex RTS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam White 1214219 Posted October 30, 2015 at 10:02 AM Author Posted October 30, 2015 at 10:02 AM Would anyone be willing to try and load the sector file on their VRC just to make sure the issue isn't just an issue specific to my VRC installation?

Board of Governors Don Desfosse Posted October 30, 2015 at 01:14 PM Board of Governors Posted October 30, 2015 at 01:14 PM Looks exactly the same to me. Don Desfosse Vice President, Operations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Board of Governors Don Desfosse Posted October 30, 2015 at 01:29 PM Board of Governors Posted October 30, 2015 at 01:29 PM I just checked and the example you cited, Area_Victor, is indeed showing. It's that tiny area just to the left of A9, and down and left of the gray area that's also near A9. (I changed Area Victor's color to red then yellow to verify what I was looking at.) Is it supposed to be that tiny? Don Desfosse Vice President, Operations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam White 1214219 Posted October 30, 2015 at 02:52 PM Author Posted October 30, 2015 at 02:52 PM Hi Don, Thank you very much for your help! It seems that I meant to use the "Parking_Area_Victor" region instead of the "Area_Victor" region... I have found that there was a very slight area where that region overlapped itself and that was preventing the whole region from showing, while in EuroScope only the area containing the overlap will not show, which is why the issue was not spotted earlier. EDIT: After editing the regions to remove areas of overlap: VATSIM UK S2 Rated (Essex RTS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Board of Governors Don Desfosse Posted October 30, 2015 at 06:35 PM Board of Governors Posted October 30, 2015 at 06:35 PM Ah, yes, that looks much nicer! Glad you found it. Don Desfosse Vice President, Operations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
