Might this, perhaps, be the great hotswapping tool?  :shock:

I think it is :D

Right, since your all getting carried away with yourselves and have guessed incorrectly, its not hotswap.

I really like the registrations, however I noticed one issue.  For aircraft in the US, the numbers change but the N and the last two letters stay the same.  In the game, the last two letters change but the numbers stay the same, e.g. N111AA, N111AB N111AC, whereas in the real world it would be N111AA, N112AA, N113AA, and so on.

I cannot find the source for US data, there are a variety of US Registrations, however only one sequence is available per country. Also the way the registration system is designed its auto incremented from the last character going inwards.

Yeah, Stephen is right, the code is looping through the characters staring with the last one, and incrementing it. This seemed to be the only universal solution that will work with -123, -1234, -123ab, -abc and all possible postfix formats.  I might be implementing the US type incrementing later.

Now, however I'm concentrating on the new feature Stephen mentioned above, which will be.... no I just can't tell you yet  8)

Nothing like private worlds, private worlds are being worked on, thats not a secret..

This is something that will take the game a step closer to the real world, just like having aircraft registrations did.
The game will be more realistic and a little harder, slower.  8)
