Hi Folks,

I have been trying to run the Endeavour 1EO TAL Practice from the Shuttle fleet 4.8. Now, as per the tutorial, my TAL site is Zaragoza. However, in the Map, ZZA shows itself in the middle of the ocean near Africa (screen capture below). What gives? Also, the TGT spaceports list in the MapMFD list ZZA twice. What's up with that?

In the ZZA config file found in Config/Earth/Base folder, edit
Code:
BASE-V2.0
Name = ZZA - Zaragoza
;Location = -1.0467	+41.6683
Size = 200
MapObjectsToSphere = TRUE
to
Code:
BASE-V2.0
Name = ZZA - Zaragoza
Location = -1.0467	+41.6683
Size = 200
MapObjectsToSphere = TRUE
If you don't see it, the semicolon ";" before Location is removed. The location should be OK now.

For the fact that ZZA appears twice, you may have downloaded another Zaragoza or you have installed Shuttle Fleet twice, and not overwrited, but changed the new name to "ZZA (2)". Therefore, you have two ZZA bases, but the name of the base in Orbiter comes from the "Name" parameter in the config file, so therefore, when running Orbiter, you have two bases with the same name.

I see that you also have two Edwards bases. It may be the same thing

Yeah, I saw that in the file, but just was not sure if that belonged there or not. Thank you asbjos. :thumbup: Also, any idea why I see ZZA twice in the TGT list?
