Title: Creation of base/focus city
Post by: andylawrence on March 18, 2007, 06:02:15 pm

forgive me this is only my second round, but i seem to be having trouble creating a base at LHR.  I have two bases in the us.  Is there a limit to the number of bases you can have?  I have 10 gates at LHR.

Thanks in advance.

There is a maximum but I doubt you are there. Can you give me your airline ID and I can manually do it for you.

just 1 query

i thought you could only make bases in the continent you had ur first base I.E

if your first base was in europe the rest could only be in europe.
if your first base was in the USA you can only base in the usa.

could you clarify this please

many thanks

unlike AE, Mogul is a bit more realistic it means you have to operate like a real airline. if your airline flies about in the USA and u want to fly in europe you have to do long haul like real life.

other than that it stops people taking over the whole world which happens alot in AE which is one of the reasons i rather play this.

I had this question last round:  what does it take to declare an official "hub" on mogul?  Base/focus city I understand; minimum of 4 gates at a specific airport you wish to make a focus city at.  I keep going to the "select hubs" option under the "gates" tab, and nothing comes up.  Do you have to have a certain amount of gates to open a hub, like 25 gates or so?

There is a charge of 30mil correct? if there is, it would help to add a 30mil price tag to the option :) , so no new airlines/players find out the hard way.. going 25mil into debt..

The price of setting up a base depends on the airport, go to very large airports and the price reflects this, go to an airport with only a few flights and the price should be a lot less.
