Title: A few suggestions
Post by: Varun on May 07, 2013, 10:09:11 pm
i would like to give the suggestion that the game can be modified so as to introduce cargo services by airline or better still the passenger aircraft's which have some cargo space in them can simultaneously carry cargo to their destination to which they are flying.
another suggestion i would like to give is that the relation between 2 countries should also be taken into consideration before deciding the load factor on international routes.
the third suggestion i would like to give is that airline can sell some percentage of their ownership to other airline, for example an airline X which has just opened and needs money can offer to sell 5% of its stake to another airline Y at rates mutually decided between themselves. the minimum  price for the stake in consideration for sale and the maximum amount or stake allowed to be sold can be decided by AM or the airline X can issue its shares in a stock market ( which of course is created and supervised by AM staff).in this way an airline can expand much faster and the game will also become much more interesting. the increase and decrease in the values of shares can be decided by the action taken by the airlines owner for example and an order for huge number of aircraft's can increase the value of its shares while a increase in maintenance costs or the the gates costs which does not cause the DOC to increase proportionately  can lead to plunging of the airlines shares. also the promoter will have to seek permission from an regulatory authority managed by AM staffs which would oversee the percentage of the airline stake which can be made available for sale and other such needs.
if any of these ideas seems interesting to you and if some further clarification of these ideas are required then you can ask me and we could chalk out the ways to implement these ideas

We know cargo is a very requested feature, but we have other priorities right now, so cargo is not on the top of our list.

Airline Mogul is constructed on the "Open Skies" principle where any good or bad relations countries have in real life are ignored. That aside, it could be a nice challenge to have flights with very low loadfactor and other with a high loadfactor. I just doubt it will be implemented in the near future.

Quote from: Common suggestions
Though compelling and innovative methods have been thought up, it still does not seem to offer sufficient added value, while remaining relatively easily watched for abuse, to overcome the extensiveness of the suggestion
And even though we can control, we don't have much staff - I'm the only one doing user support right now.

It's good to get suggestions, even though they might already be in development. Continue coming with new suggestions! :)

Well, shouldn't it then be prioritized? :)

It would be amazing if you could be a cargo airline or passenger. Perhaps you could be one and then make a subairline to be the other.
