G'day,

as I'm not sure if it's a bug or wanted, I chose this forum. Also, I checked for other threads of similar topical nature, to no avail.

So, I'm wondering what the current status on the aircraft delivery time is. Until ca. one day ago, most aircraft (except for the ones with 48hr delivery) would be delivered after 23 real-time hours. If the ETA said "2 days", that meant "next hour" in real time. Now I see ETAs of "1 day" and "0 days", which of course makes sense, I'd like to think of it as a bugfix. Yet it seems to me the deliveries now take up 25 or 26 real-time hours, which would be more than the in-game 24 days. For example, I ordered an aircraft (ID 95486) yesterday ca. 10am local time (CET), meaning 9am GMT. But now, at 10:30am CET (09:30am GMT), its delivery is still pending.

Could anyone please look into this. Also, I offer my apologies if this topic has been covered elsewhere.

Something weird just happened.

I had some brokerage requests listed with Hampo. He accepted just within the last 30 minutes, and now I have the order ready for pick-up! The only in-game notifications I have are the ones where he accepted, not ones where they have been listed.

I bought one aircraft (ID 98217) to see what info it had.

This happened last round.

All the aircraft on order somehow got delivered before they should.

Sooo ... is anyone able to answer? Right now I can't really rely on the given ETAs, which is kind of ... let's say sad.

It happened again with a brokerage order that Hampo accepted a few hours ago. This time, it took until the next day change for the planes to be immediately delivered. My alliance members have been experiencing the same issues, as well.

I will also say what happened to flausunco happened to me yesterday, as well.

Moderator ... this thread should probably be moved into the Bugs forum.

essentially what you were saying is aircraft were delivered an hour late... if that is correct. then yes. it's been fixed, and it was an error.

Sorry. The issue I brought up (in post #2) in this thread is different. Brokered planes (Constellations) are being delivered 23 hours early!

hmm... i'm not seeing in the code why that would be at the moment.. I'm going to take a break and then look it over again with a relaxed mind.  from initial scans however, this should be alright.  You know, a requester only receives the notification that the aircraft has been listed to them, no other message is put in the inbox.  

I'll definitely be looking into this.

I receive a notification when the brokerage request has been accepted, then another when it's listed. Currently, I get the accepted notification; then, at the next day change, the planes are delivered without a listing notification.

delivered as in in your fleet or delivered as in waiting for you to buy.

Sorry. They appear in the Incoming Private Offers section.

This also seems to be why people have been confused about why a brokerage request accepted a few hours prior (with a 24 day delivery time) suddenly changed into, for example, 68 days.
