DOCUMENT:Q109857 07-MAY-2002 [homegame] TITLE :Flight Simulator: Splash When Taxiing Around Meigs Field PRODUCT :Microsoft Home Games PROD/VER:MS-DOS:5.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Flight Simulator for MS-DOS, version 5.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= If you taxi around Meigs Field in Chicago and the aircraft travels outside the taxiway, tarmac, or runway, you may get the message "Splash" and Flight Simulator will reset the situation. You can avoid this by clicking Crash Detection from the Sim menu and activating the Ignore Crash option. MORE INFORMATION ================ Flight Simulator generates the "Splash" message when the aircraft touches blue-colored pixels at ground level. Some of the pixels in the Meigs Field bitmap are blue so you will get this message when taxiing over them unless Ignore Crash is set.
