Very low load factors return

On some routes LF is low even with very low prices (major routes).

Is there any competition?
How many frequencies?
How big is the plane?

Yes there is a lot of competition and overcapacity is there but the script does not work very well. I was on the route for a while. Now new airline enters and my LF goes down all the way to 0% (not realistic). In order to get my passengers back I need to drop price to 79 Eur.

Also since edit route is down I have to close my route and reopen it paying for research again.

Yeah, I think its due to the loadfactor formula that was supplied. I got help with that one but its very sensitive. Its very fond of price drops. I will have to spend a few hours on excel reducing its effect a little.
