General Chat / Aircraft selection page...

« on: November 07, 2007, 09:23:29 pm »

I don't really understand this...

I'll try to create a route, I have one here that is 1003 miles long and there is a plane I can use it for with 10 hours available.

I have another that I look at with 763 miles on it, but it shows no planes available even though the one that shows on the 1003 route is still available.

Edit: I also have a plane with 18 and 11 hours, which doen't show up under either route. (These are all Curtis CW-20s so it's not like they have different speeds/ranges)

General Chat / Price to start base?

What was the formula for the price to create a new base at an airport?

I've forgotten what they cost since last round other than I remember having a couple incidents where I bought 4 gates only to not be able to afford to make a new base.

When I do Dubai International Airport to Karachi - Jinnah Int´l Airport it gives me 0nm.

The same thing happens when doing Dubai International Airport to Karachi -Quaid-e-Azam and Victoria Falls.

General Chat / Hubs vs Focus cities/bases?

« on: October 16, 2007, 04:13:51 am »

From the game wiki page

The limit is 6 bases. When hubs come online these will be limited to 4, so in total the maximum number of airports that an airline can fly from will be 10(not limit to Alliance Routes).

What is the difference between them and what exactly are hubs?

General Chat / People setting fares same as yours...

« on: September 25, 2007, 09:19:23 pm »

Was just wondering if this is like it should be.

Assume I put my fares at $195 and someone is at $200.

If they come back and put theirs down to $195, they will take all (or the majority) of the customer's even though are fares are the same. I've noticed it on multiple routes with different combinations of planes.

General Chat / I hate when someone comes in and absolutely destroys a route

« on: September 17, 2007, 06:31:05 pm »

but I guess that's competition?

Some new airline is just underpricing the hell out of me. I'm on routes with everyone at $400+ and this guy comes in and drops a plane on there for $90. argh.

General Chat / What do you do when you see someone abusing routes?

« on: September 13, 2007, 09:49:37 pm »

I saw an airline abusing .5s on a route with three .5s so I sent him an email saying doing multiple .5 routes is illegal.

He sent me a message back saying he didn't know and thanks for telling him.

It's been 2 days and the routes I saw are not gone and I just noticed another route with SIX .5 flights from this guy's airline.

General Chat / Game Rules?

« on: September 10, 2007, 03:54:23 am »

Was unaware of some of the rules of this game until I looked around the forum, such as the gate hogging, etc.

Is there any place with what is acceptable and isn't acceptable to do with your flight routes?

I figure taking a plane and making all it's flights be .5 is against the rules.
