I was changing the frequency of a route (ACE - LPA) and the next thing showed up

I have a flight not showing up in the map.

It's from Nice to Stockholm. All other flight's are shown except for this flight

It is reported within this thread, you just have to wait for Miller to view the post and he will make alterations

An other finding is that if you change the ticket price on routes that you flown before you made the hub. They will also get connecting pax. beside this i could raiseall the prices due to more custumors. I originaly had about 435K profit on routes out my hub. After raising all the prices that figure gone up by about 100K$ to 545K

I have some connecting traffic after i deployed a new route from my hub to a non hub. the route i had before i made GVA a hub aren't getting any connecting's

FCO customers:1004.61
MAD customers:948.38
Game capacity adjustment: %230

Total Daily Customers: 2,574<---
Total Capacity: 17401<---
Customers Adjusted for Distance: 2,574
-------------------------------------------------------------
Load Factor - %100.00

Projected Revenue - $1,689,178

Projected Profit - $1,529,153

This doesn't look right according the rules of economics.

total capacity exceeds the demand 8 times and still you'll get a full plane

Well I made Geneva my hub. And I didn't notice any difference, other then that of other competitors

Also for me no connecting passengers at all.

On the route GVA-CDG (geneva-paris), cunard is I think testing something out. he has wel over the 20 flights. But i'm also making a good money on that route with just two flights. Also if i use the reaserch tool it shows that there is some amount of connecting traffic. But that is not flying with me, somehow.

Thought i recognized the name, fellow ATCBOX'er

klopt helemaal!!!

I was shocked to see that the player who is playing by the rules and is doing exactly what Miller would want to see:

1. Hub a location
2. Make a Spoke effect from that location

If this is actually the test subject i'm willing to change my hub (geneva) in a Hub shortly. But it wil take some time as i'm some how not growing to fast.
I just have ocupied 5 gates at Geneva with a fleet of 3 Dhc8-400's and a single A319. I will leave it like that for a day. Monitor my DOP, and after that i will switch to a Hub and monitor that situation as well.
So for this test I ask other players to wait a day or two before joining a route where Foesah (5364) is flyin' on, so there can be some consitenty(or how is that spelled). In other words the monitoring results can be compared.

thanks

This game is meant to be a simulation, right?

So it should be as close to reality as possible. The new LF system is a bit closer to reality then the current one. And as in real world no airline has an every 5 min flight between to airports. So the LF system should some how prevent that from being possible. Mayby working with passengers intrests some how expressed in the length of flight, if you understand what i mean(I can understand if you don't )

And a 200 nm is more often done by ground transportation. Unless theres a sea in between.

I also didn't get a message of my sold aircraft.

But hou do you think about the amount of players in this game?

I like it a lot!!! if there are different games in V3 they should have max amount of player around the 200.

We are testing the LF equation, not how many airports there are in the game. Airports are easy to add into the database, fixing the LF equation to perfection is more important.

ah right, I thought of it because it looks like routes get very fast saturated( i can understand that becuase in real world you would have a frequency of 5 or something between to big city not like the 25 or more in AE original game)

The following qeustion emerged in my brain.
Say the demand is 100 and i've a capacity of 50. Some one else joins the route and with another 50. Is that route saturated or does the demand grow?

wow that research feature is lovely!!!!

I hope we can buy one day a F100 or somethng. it's a very finance friendly aircraft.

Not to brag, but could there be, when V3 goes alpha, a bit more airports in it?
Look at ryanair and easyjet. They fly at everything but the major airports. Like Franfurt-hahn, or Milan Orio.

Another way of finding cheaters is by looking at the couple of last pages of the rankings. You wil find some airliners have suprisingly simular names and also some of who i'm competing with. Beside that you also find a couple of airlines who have exactly -10 mil cash. That smells... i can't figure out how they all managed that. Probably by selling them for 50% and then buying them back for the full 100% and again selling them at 50%.
