I'm having a bit of a problem with a surface base I'm using on Mercury. It is appearing under the surface. I am using Myron Base by jplaja and the high-resoulution Mercury terrain from the official Orbiter website.

Here is the beginning of the code from the config file for the base. I modified the location from the original:
Code:
BASE-V2.0
Name = Myron Base
Location = -84.679001 71.227997
Size = 1000
ObjectSize = 100
MAPOBJECTSTOSPHERE = True

BEGIN_NAVBEACON
VOR MYRO -84.679 71.228 110 500
VOR PWPL -84.679 71.228 111 50
END_NAVBEACON
 
Apparently, this is only a problem exclusive to the D3D9 client.
