I was wondering if there is a way to make a complete airfields form scratch. I know how to make runways but i dont know how to make the taxiways that come off the runway and go to the hangers. Is there any way you can make these?

Its not very easy.

There are these things in your 'ships' section in full mision builder, they are called 'test runways' grab a couple of those.

Put some Anti aircraft guns and some objects and mark it as your home base and do what you normaly do on an aircraft carrier to take off and land.

And to make them taxi then I think you have to use those bridge/sidwalk things in the objects list.

As Owl has mentioned, it can be difficult

The "test runways" are what you need; however, the terrain you place them on is quite important

One of the test runways is invisible except for white marks at the corners

Aircraft carrier rules apply, which can be used to advantage when tying a flight to the test runway using the 'target' tool

The biggest problem is terrain not suitable to your needs. This can happen:



However, you can set up some scratch built airfields pretty easily once you figure out what not to do:

If you really want to make your own airfields there are several options over at the modding community .. AAA.

I made my own map...with dozens of fields and strips...and you can too...or simply alter a default map to your own specs.

Here's how I did it and it turned out really well. It's one of my favorite fields to fly from. I placed test airstrip #3s and then once I had them where I wanted them I turned them into test airstrip #4s to make them invisible. Then I surrounded it all with trees.

The entire area within the confines of the trees is flat smooth landing surface:
