Modifying runway and taxiway with road modding tool

[Leeijo 314]

Has anyone tried if it is possible to modify the runway and taxiway with the new road modding tool?

At first sight when I tried it in the editor it is not possible, those networks don't appear. But by an accident I found that if I load the editor up with an airport asset and then from there create a new road I can select both the runway and taxiway. In the editor it seems to work, removing all the lights looks good but it fails to load in game however.

Perhaps this isn't supposed to be doable since they are not available directly (bug)?

Or could it be that it fails to load because of loading screen only? Haven't had the time to try the "normal" way.

These are just thoughts, but I wanted to shout them out in case there was anyone else who discovered this or find it interesting.

it's not supposed to be doable but i've managed it. you'll have to figure it out though because i don't really have time to discuss it - it's a little bit of trial and error. just know that it is possible! I used modtools a lot!

Anyone have ideas how to do this? Or any pointers of what needs to be fixed in modtools to get it to work. I have managed to create the roads and in road editor it's s all fine but they don't load. 

It would be a nice addition but I have not been able to figure out how to get it to work.
