Zero Tolerance

[pseudoswede]

Here is where we need clarification...

If a single plane is doing more than two x.5 routes (that includes 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, etc., then it shouldn't be allowed, right?

Just re-posting this on the 2nd page, because this is a quesiton I'd like to see answered.

There are some airlines out there whose entire route network is made up of one 0.5 frequency route per city to a bunch of different cities.  In effect it doubles your airplane's hours, but it's blatantly unrealistic.

Daniel says it is fine.

I guess I'm going to re-do my strategy (not to mention defy common logic) and do nothing but 0.5 routes with my planes from now on.

I'm very disappointed, but, hey, if it gives me an advantage, and it's legal, why not?

You could also try to simply play fair. By the way, with the new skript you seem to get the most money out of routes with 2 or 3 frequencies!

Just play a game the way it's meant to be played, realistic or not.  Ridge racer is hardly realistic.

Here's how the "new script" works for me...

2-frequency route = 119k
Two 1-frequency routes = 189k
One 1-frequency route and two 0.5 frequency routes = 223k

This is on a route with two other airlines (one doing a 2-frequency and the other doing two 0.5 frequency).

But you're killing the game for everybod else on the route, great archievement

No. The other guy with two 0.5 frequencies also has 100% loads.

Here's another way to look at it.

You're standing in front of two identical slot machines. Both say, "You will win every five tries." On one machine, it says, "We pay out according to the pay tables listed on the machine." However, the other one says, "The casino management has allowed this machine to pay out 50% more than what is listed on the pay tables."

Which one would you play?

so what should i do if i find airlines are abusing the 0.5 frequency?

Send a PM to Daniel, dktc and/or StephenM.

Remember: it's only considered route abuse if they are flying the same route with more than two 0.5 frequencies.

Everything else w/r/t 0.5 routes is legal.

I understand. Thanks for your help.

Email staff a t airlinemogul dot com. It will get a staff member to respond.

Just want to clarified, we are only allowed to have one 0.5 frequency per route?

Cause i remember last round we were allowed to have 2X 0.5.

If only one 0.5 is allowed, can i have 2 different planes set at 0.5 without enough hours to make 1 frequency route?

[pseudoswede]

It's two 0.5 frequencies. Doesn't matter if it's on one plane or two.

[dktc]

It's two 0.5 frequencies. Doesn't matter if it's on one plane or two.

It was last round. This round... let's wait for the clarification from DanielD. He did say 1 0.5 in this thread.

I thought he was answering a different question there.  I hope he was, since allowing multiple 0.5 frequencies per plane is unrealistic and unfair to those of us who want to play the game realistically.

Someone ask if he can have three 0.5 routes on a place. Each 0.5 route going to a different city. Daniel said yes. It doesn't matter if it's 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, or 99.5 because it's the .5 that makes the difference.
