Wind direction: where the wind is coming from.
Runway heading: where the runway points to.
Wind from 360 means use runway 36, unless you want to have tailwind. :)

Taking off with tailwind is favourable? :o
It's possible, up to a certain level (manufacturer and/or airline ops limit), but the favourable way is to have a headwind for takeoff and landing.
Mark, I think there's a way to alter the Orbx YMML runway assignment. They have included a crosswind and a "normal" file, if my mind doesn't trick me.
Edited.
There it is, first item.
