In Topic: Maximum runway length

20 October 2011 - 07:36 AM

I'm sorry, but i agree with Pineair.

Whats the point of showing up London City in the browse airports page, when you won't be able to fly there with an A380?


That's when you can fill in the minimum runway length needed by the a380 and LCY won't show up :hi: :hi:

In Topic: Maximum runway length

Have to agree with natsirt44 that there is no point in adding this (my opinion).

If the runway length would somehow be linked to the gate lease payment or the popularity of the airport it would make more sense to me.

Also I guess that this is really hard to add to the game since the runway length is the length of the longest runway at that specific airport. This indicates that there are more runways at that airport (real life) and that there probably are shorter runways. Someone would then have to add this for all airports in the game.

However adding the option to browse for airports using a maximum ( already active) and minimum number of miles from the destination would be a nice addition to the search engine :)

In Topic: Next theme game idea

19 October 2011 - 07:18 PM

Is there a way that a theme game could be set up where the number of new and used aircraft is limited per month? In real world airlines can't add 20-50 planes in a month like I have done several times in games. If we could limit to say 5 new and 5 used planes a month in the theme game (slightly higher or lower). Or limit to 10 total aircraft purchases (new or used) a month. That would be cause for some serious thought in aircraft acquisition strategy. Not sure it can be done. But I think that would make for some interesting problems.

Just an idea.


Like the idea :thumbup: would sure limit the speed in which the airlines grow and would make people think better about the type of planes they buy.
On the other hand if the number of airplanes is lower the competition will probably be less heavy too.. as far as you can call that a bad thing B)

In Topic: extend lease payment

19 October 2011 - 07:06 PM

guys i was wondering if we could pay the lease on like 6-7th day of the month.. cuz usually ill get few -mills and it takes just 2 days (ae time) to recover.. just lost 2 aircraft today.. :P


I usually do not spend any money after the 20th of the month so i have 4 days of profit for the lease payments.. or what you can do is check what the ammount of lease is going to be and make sure you have that money left.

But don't you usually get 1 or 2 warnings before the aircraft is seized? O_O

I spent 300m for my thailand airline on beta game, start to think to cancel my monthly marketing :whistling:


300M ????? WOW that's crazy.. Spending 300M requires 300M extra profit to break even without even making more profit.. Guess I'll stick with the employee parties :partyhat:
