MP is quite picky for correctly formatted and simple KLM files.

Test: Open Google Earth Pro, draw a polygon and save it as a KML. You can load it nicely into MP.

It is very likely that your KML is malformed, or contains elements that is not understand by MP.

Apparently Google Earth Pro produces malformed KMLs by skipping default values at least for colors and line widths. It would be nice if Mission Planner handled default color and line widths.

Support for polygon fill would be nice too.

Changing polygon fill handling behavior could be an issue for those who get used to that all polygon fills are rendered transparent...

In my test there was no fill at all. (I tried 40% in Google Earth Pro). I remember polygons filled white (as were all objects in the given KML), wasn't fun.
