I've joined this world, replicating Air Canada (Air Canadian). Should be a good challenge.

Suggestions / Re: Spacing in the purchase aircraft table

« on: January 28, 2012, 04:17:29 pm »

Just a thought. How about right justifying all the numerical columns. You have to add a little right margin to make sure it doesn't crowd a text column to the right. Right justifying allows you to read down the list and see them in order better, for example it would be obvious which planes are 10 million euro or more. It would also eliminate the crowding to long text in the left column.

Suggestions / Re: Changing fuel prices/2011 2012

It appears that fuel prices change over time already, although I don't know if it's tied to real historical prices.

If you look in your operations department, find a month end/start that your revenue doesn't change. Then take a look at your fuel expense. It will change on the 1st. It looks like it is the only daily expense that changes with the month rollover.

General Chat / Re: What is Your DOC?

All it takes is 350,000 per aircraft and 600 planes. It means a route to every possible airport <1500NM (even 0 PAX) as well as every reachable airport over 5 million PAX from all of your hubs. You need to move a lot of passengers. It's a lot of work to build, but it will get you over 200,000,000 and more if you have good hub cities. My best DOC so far has been a little over 250,000,000. There is one airline out there in one of the public worlds that's doing about 350,000,000.

Watch out for the maintenance costs, they can kill you (I've been over 2 billion a month).

If only it were real money....

Game Strategy / Re: When to build a terminal?

« on: November 18, 2011, 03:28:53 pm »

One thing to keep in mind about building terminals, since the minimum purchase is 5 gates, you should plan your build so you have enough planes/routes to be able to use at least 41 of the 50 slots created before the automatic gate return kicks in the month after next. Otherwise you will end up losing rented gates and have to extend the terminal earlier. After you build a terminal, you can no longer rent gates.

Bugs / [Fixed] Aircraft age increases in Mass-Sell Aircraft

« on: November 18, 2011, 03:19:12 pm »

When using Mass-Sell Aircraft feature, the age of the aircraft goes up significantly with each step in the process. I just listed some 3.3 year old aircraft, by the end of the process, it shows them being 7.7 years old. The aircraft get listed for sale with the correct age, the problem is only on the Mass-Sell Aircraft pages.

This happens regardless of game world, and presumably user (mine is 52188). I've seen this occur every time I've used this feature.
