I say we start in the 950s. Only because some planes seem to have their production start then in the game.  :twisted:


Its just to keep the Cargo only planes out of the loop. :)

The game will have a lot of updated features, there may not be as many new features as I'd like. Personally projects I had hoped to do were scaled down quite a lot.

but now we will operate DC-8, 707, DC-6 anyway, and why we can do a flight departing from Rio de Janeiro to Europe without legs???  :wink:

I think he means that 'can we do long routes which no aircraft can do in stages just like the good old days?'

not even a simple leg, like GIG-GCLP-LHR??? :cry:

in this round, the legs system can be inserted???  :roll:

whithout this system we can't do routes conecting South America or Central America to Europe, only from the northeast of Brazil to cities like Lisbon and Madrid :?

I was joking  :)

I believe that it would be too much of a hazzle to fix connections and stopovers on every one of my next 60 routes, it could work but I don´t like it right now, we´ll have to wait a new era or two and see

:( simple legs aren't so simple.  they take exceptions, valid and invalid exceptions, a change to the backend as to how the routes are stored... all that fun stuff, and frankly. no one yet has come to an agreement as to how those legs should function, mostly because i fail to see how flights into/out of an airport have zero impact on each other (even when no one is allowed to get "on" at that airport).

It really is scary how things that look simple, half the time are a lot more complex then they appear. and half the things that look complex are a lot more simple then they appear.  That's what coding teaches me.

Closest thing to legs we can get this age is through alliance hubs.

How about you do the legs feature after you get this round up and running? Im guessing it'll be ready by half way in the round, and it will still be useful, and a lot of support for it

I agree! Mid 50"s would be great....

50's aircrafts would not make leg's from Brasil (my Hub) to Europe. Only if we could make two leg's and on, there would be ok, but...we know it's other theme...

Sorry about my english...
