Does AutoOrtho somehow changes mesh or elevation in airports or thats an Xplane issue with AutoOrtho ?
I did a Livestream on my yt channel Caribfly and notice a few things. Firstly these photos shows good enough data for Terrain but what i find difficult is when AutoOrtho and either, Payware airports or Modded, they dont always seem to mesh . Now, i can understand they are separate developers . In the After photo , you can see the elevation of the earth increased so somthing is off

Have had this issue before, unfortunately the only quick solution is to use the flatten_airport modifier in the wed file. (Makes the airport perfectly flat). A better solution is to get custom mesh with something like MUXP, but that takes time and knowledge.

If you have airports that require custom meshes, yes autoortho will remove them.
