Due to some major changes with the script, including the load factor algorithm, we'll be reseting sim 2 this weekend. I understand this game was short, but as we get more and more of the bugs worked out, they'll get longer, I promise.

The major change you can expect this weekend is that it will be more difficult next time. Also, just to try it out, I'll be including a minimum ticket price restriction of $25. You can set it below $1, but it will just set it to $25.

Yay! Glad the idea I had is used (About the $25 charge). Should make the game more open =D.

This is great news! Auto pricing seems to have gone crazy now. Even when a route is giving 90% load factor for a price range of ~$900, when i try to introduce a new flight on that route, autopricing sets the fare to $128 with a $3000 loss! And then if i try to manually set the price, I can't find any price that gives even a dollar profit on that route anymore.

My guess is that it's either something to do with the new script miller has done, or the amount of capacity on the route. How many seats are there already on that route?

Because I do have a job, and Saturday is the first time I can spend enough time to upload the newest version, and reset the game.

Yeah, you are right its probably because of the capacity. A 787-8 just got added to the route so that brings it to 415 seats already on the route. So no way my beech 1900D can make money here right? Although, these 2 are big airports...and both are my hubs. My other 1900D is make a decent profit though on this route ~$5,816.

All load factor equations will be incorrect because of the changes. Expect next round to be much more realistic.

Okay, thanks for the update!

[BabyToy]

Please fix the gate leasing algorithms. There are times I am charged as much as 6x the actual costs, and sometimes no charge at all.

Can you please include a breakdown of gate leasing costs in the finance page?

[Maestro69]

Thanks for the update Miller.. lucky ill be home all day that day

[colsie]

Can we change our airline names ofr this next round.

[costos]

nooooooooooooo. too short of a game. but I think I'm getting the wind of changes. the prices on routes even now seem to be more realistic, and I think it's only messed because of all older routes.

I cahn't wait.
