I can't see how you can have tickets @ 3.4trillion

Airline Aircraft Type Frequency Seats Ticket Price
***** ******* ****** A380-800 14 575 $3,415,218,648,705 F / $38,144 C / $203 Y

Its quite possible. In a full game, when there's enough players, those prices will be driven by competition.

not sure what airline that is but the max amount of should be 5 figures.

I would also like to remind people that this is beta , any and all bugs etc should be reported immediately here on the forum. That's the idea of beta testing! So feel no shame in mentioning which airline it is.

As I thought.

It's NEA :)

Shame on him for doing this! If people are not going to be bothered to treat this as a beta game and not report stuff like this then there is no point in beta testing.

Ditto your comments Glennos, David should place a temp :Banon this user after removing their access to the game, this should be a stern warning to other who love to take advantage and think that the eyes :-1Eyeof the AE world are not looking.

10/10 to the original poster for spotting this :-Clap - keep looking as one day this hard work of David's will be what you will be playing on.

The bug that made this feasible has been found and fixed.

As for NEA, you job as a beta tester is to find and report bugs so they can be fixed, not to find and quietly take advantage of them. What's the point of getting to #1 on a testing server that can be reset at any time?

actually this is beta, the point of beta is to break the system. this happened last time when lurch found it, and i saw it happening again so i kept doing it to figure out its breaking point. now if you would like to know the info i was able to gather by letting it sit for 2 hours let me know ill be glad to share it with u because there was other bugs that went along with it.

its not like that couldnt be hidden... jumping ranks in 2 hours that big sort of gives a hint, just like it did when lurch did it and that wasnt even talked about until i brought it to attention. i actually was getting on now to report it... but i was beat to it.

The point of beta is to report a bug. You were able to place a trillion dollar fare , so report it , you don't have to use it!

Why try to figure out a breaking point? It's not as if trillion dollar fares will be available in the public release version!

I think everyone would like to know the info? That's what we are here for.

What other bugs, I do not see any other bugs reported by you after making this comment?

At least your signature matches your position in the game now, that's some good to come out of it :sdrool:

the price was at 3 trillion, however the payout wasnt, which if you look at the rankings you would see (as im not in the trillions). from the time he reported it from when i opened it was only 1.5 hours, i left it open because i thought the system might fix itself since its happened in the past and was already fixed.

but anyways it might have been connected it might have not, but the system has a block on how high you dop can go. when i had that route going my dop was only 8.8billion. now, i had made all my other routes so that they werent making anything and it was just those 4 routes that was providing that dop, when i made all my other routes come back into the green, the DOP stayed the same.

now this brings up two possible things (if they arent connected), the dop might not be calculated right (can some small airline count up all there routes and make sure its the same) or there is for some reason a block in letting the dop going any higher. now if there is a block, that wont really affect most, but it could the largest one if airlines ever get that high (really build them or through mergers). however i think if anyone ever has a 8 billion dop, then the game needs to be reset anyways.

Individual route profits are capped at $2,147,483,547 because of the way it's stored in the database. That's probably the limiting factor.

thats what those routes were at, but there must also be a overall dop cap also because when i was changing those 4 routes i had changed my other routes so that they wouldnt make any money. but after those 4 routes mentioned maxed out in their dop, i changed my other routes back so they were in the green and the total dop of all my routes stayed the same.

I can't think of a cap that applies to total profit, because that's not stored anywhere. It's just calculated by adding up all your route profits.
