I hope this is the right forum to post this in, if its not then maybe a moderator can move it. I think it would be helpful to have a small tool that would calculate the distance between airports so nobody would have to buy a gate before the know if their aircraft have the range to reach it. Just my two cents...
-
This exists. Look for "Research Route" in the menus.
-
It's in the Veiw Routes menu, under the "Default setting."
-
What happened to the tool where you could search for gates within an specified range of an airport? It was there before... but gone now..

That is supposed to be a premium feature which you would have to pay to use. We accidentally released that and it is now locked again.

How long until we see premium account features?

Not until
- multi-world implemented, and
- more premium feature ready for use.
Multi-world has to be implemented first because the developers are going to code the premium features are finishing the multi-world (according to their to-do list... good thing I checked last night).

am i the only one that plots using google earth?

Until I found the "Research Route" function, I was plotting via mapquest place-to-place directions. It was really pathetic :D
-
this makes me feel really aerogeeky, but i would put it into the FMS or GPS of what ever plane i had running in x-plane (depending on what was on the panel)......
-
Id like to see the Research routes menu allow me to use airport codes. We just hit 2,000 airports, and having to scroll threw them all every time makes it un-usable.

i use MS streets and trips, create a radius circle around the departure airport to find cities within a certain distance
i still use research route for the longer overseas routes research

Are the "premium features" going to free?

Are the "premium features" going to free?
Yes, they are going to free up some time for the premium users for other things (provided they have a life outside AM :P )
No, you need to pay for those features.
-
Hope these "premium features" won't spread everywhere... might kill competition, prevent some people from playin and/or create a huge gap between thse who paid and tose who didn't as those last one would be a ta disadvantage...unless that's what you like, AM would soon because and All-pay game.
Maybe i m going too far in thinking? :D
Anyway so far AM's been great thx

There is no worry of AM becoming an all-pay game. have no fear.
premium features at best will be relatively minor convenience updates to a few pages, maybe an extra site skin or two. The real difference maker will be in the multiworld functionality. This is not wholely hammered out at the moment but generally speaking: there will be some form of token system created for multiworlds. say, 1-2 token(s) to enter a game (where you start out with something like 5 tokens); all players have tokens generated automatically as time progresses however the premium players get tokens at a reasonably faster rate. This is significant in that it'll cost between X and Y tokens to generate a private world of your own. I'm also considering capping the number of active worlds a player can be in, which would be eliminated for premium players. I've seen a similar system in action elsewhere, and it seems pretty fair and fun for all; incentive for those who wish to pay while providing the game essentially fully featured (gameplay wise) free for all who don't.
**DISCLAIMER: general outline may be subject to change while the principle that premium features are rather minor convenience oriented alterations or multiworld related advantages is locked in.**
-
What's the cost per month to be one?
-
seems fair enough, hope it won't cost too much
-
Nothing has been discussed fully on a staff level so theres lots left to do on that front. More important issues to solve before we go money grabbing. Unless we have issues with costs. :)
