#48485 Sim2 Has Been Reset
Posted by D.Y. on 05 June 2007 - 05:58 PM in Announcements
The routes in Africa are quite lucrative (without hubs but hubs give only relatively minor increase) and I have not only Q400s but also many A330s and 739s now and still it is impossible to increase prices like that even between main hubs and if there is competition the prices need to go down even further. I have no plans to expand into America currently however so couldn't check whether maybe in America hubs give larger profits than here, when other people who are based in America will open more hubs we'll see.

Regarding Africa this is the thing I have already mentioned previously. In Africa the cities that are major in real life may be not profitable to fly to (the Johannesburg-Durban example I have mentioned, also Lagos-Abudja, Johannesburg-Cape Town to a lesser extent) however some smaller cities are profitable for some reason.

One thing which I don't understand (which is perhaps not related to the sim2) is how the value of the airline is counted? I am constantly having higher profits and higher revenues than the airline that is above me in the rankings, but the value of that airline is bigger and the gap is getting larger and larger.

MISPELLED NAMES:
Frankfort (should be Frankfurt)
Tokyo Haneida (should be Tokyo Haneda)
MISPLACED AIRPORTS:
Kimberley, South Africa (sim2 - severely misplaced)
Niamey, Niger (sim2 - severely misplaced)
Ankara (should be hundreds of kilometers west)
Bergen (should be hundreds of kilometers west; now is in Sweden instead of Norway)
AIRPORTS LISTED AT WRONG CONTINENT:
Abu Dhabi (listed in Africa, should be Middle East)
Bahrain (listed in Europe, should be Middle East)
Algiers (listed in Europe, should be Africa)
Leipzig (sim2; listed in Africa, should be Europe)
Kota Kinabalu (listed in Asia, should be Southeast Asia/Oceania)
Also, there should probably be consistency with cities of Egypt - either Hurghada in the Middle East, or Cairo in Africa. Turkish cities may as well be moved to the Middle East.

Another question:
When you order a new aircraft when it will be delivered? Exactly after one month or at the time when the current month changed into the next month?
#47278 Gatehogging
Posted by D.Y. on 12 April 2007 - 02:08 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests
However, both solutions would be better than current situation in my opinion.
#47274 Gatehogging
Posted by D.Y. on 12 April 2007 - 12:27 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests
In my opinion, this is what should be implemented:
After the airport runs out of gates (and there are no airlines anymore that does not use their gates) the airport would send messages threatening to revoke gates for all airlines, which fly small aircraft many times a day to the same destination. These airlines would have to switch to larger aircraft (if there is demand) or decrease frequency and, in order to keep gates, add new routes. Probably aircraft under 100 seats would be considered "small", this message could be sent to airlines which operate same route either over 5, over 7 or over 10 times a day with small aircraft and the ammount of gates to be revoked would depend on the ammount of such flights (leaving only 1 or 2 gates for same route).
Gateghogging therefore would still be possible, but more realistic - the airlines would have to operate more different routes; and due to the limit of airports close enough it would mean that the total ammount of gates possible to gatehog would be somewhat limited as well.
Another measure that might be implemented togther with this one is that after there are no more gates possible to revoke under this rule, airports would threaten to revoke gates for airlines which use small aircraft to fly to it (at first 19 seats, then 30 and so on; the ammount of gates to be revoked would depend on the ammount of gates used for flights with such aircraft), therefore forcing the change of various minor local routes to major ones and, over the time, further realistically restricting gatehogging (this measure would however effectively remove newly registered users from major airports later in the game, therefore is probably more controversial than the first one).
These measures in my opinion are realistic and goes together with interests of the airports.

2.Regarding ordering planes - is it still so that you have to have only 50% of money at the time of placing order and that you could use your credit to pay for gates in case you are in debt? As I have read some contradicting information.
