how to change takeoff direction on an airfield?

[David198502]

the title says it all...im not able to change the takeoff direction on an airfield.
there is the option of "both rich" which is i think the possibility to take off and land from both direction of the landing strip, but its somehow not working.
cliffs wants me to force to takeoff from a certain direction, and i have no glue how to change it.placing the first waypoint on the other edge of the field doesnt help either, nor does rotating the pasted landing strip for 180degrees.
any hints?

Ai always takeoff into the wind. Change the wind in the mission parameters by 180 degrees.

just a little hint- the way wind is defined in fmb is 'less than intuitive'
0 deg = from West and adding degrees moves wind anticlockwise so +90 deg wind comes from South

thx will give it a try

doesnt work for me...changed wind direction from default 0 to 180, and the plane is still placed on the "wrong" side of the runway...
one thing i noticed, after saving the mission, and loading it again, is that the winddirection is not saved, but back again to default 0°.
