General Pre-Release Discussion

Probably. They tried to make this with HKG but there were some issues. Should be ready with ZRH.

One thing to say is that HKG is not designed to work as efficiently in the other direction, at least for the first phase before T2 and the third runway. Most airports will have a ā€œbetter directionā€ when it is designed, despite monsoon or regulatory changes. I think dual-direction operation will face some issues with route finding under the current version of the taxi system in the game, since the airport is naturally designed to be that. Unless a new taxi system (an autopath finding with no fixed routes input) is used, changing runway direction will require redoing the whole taxi system individually for each airport.

Although the smaller props tend to land from RWY28, People already complain SXM is slow with backtracking after arrivals, adding that for departure queues is gonna be a really bad addition for SXM.

Personally SXM doesn’t need a change in landing direction, just the airport and island remodel with missing stands added

I don’t really know if they could do variable/flexible path finding since that’s another level of complexity.

That’s honestly awesome and it just means a more realistic airport for us :smiling_face: . I wish the devs would be able to do this for all airports but that’s obviously not possible. Looking forward to it with some realistic stands as well!

Not pre-ordering Forza again after the last one where multiplayer was broken for a month after release. I might pick up the Game Pass and try it through that.

Also, don’t forget with ZRH we’re getting the 747 Classics hopefully, long awaited lol. Hoping to have a fair few B743 contracts at the new airport but we’ll have to see.

I think I’ll but the CD version. Maybe this time it won’t have the problem that you are talking about. And it costs less in Poland.

Also, ZRH will be very interesting airport.

The tracks in Prague will be used in shifts, or as someone knows how it’s working every time the wind changes in real life…

Its absolutely possible :slight_smile: we just need to find enough people willing to spent cent or two :slight_smile: than we can do this on any airport. The guys didn book 5 star hotel and first class flight, so its doable.

Yes it will depends on wind and real closures of the 24 RWY.

I’m really looking forward to the next update, and I’m also excited about PRG and ZRH. Are the realistic sound effects for the aircraft and the pushbacks currently in development? I’m still incredibly impressed and happy with the last update. The gameplay experience has really improved, and it feels fantastic. I’m truly delighted. Hats off to the developers!

I’m truly impressed, Charlie. They’re replicating the airports to the fullest, and I think this Prague one will be spectacular, just like the new INN. You know, I have a suggestion: they could launch the 737s with the renovation of San Diego Airport. It’s a good airport for that later this year. It’s not a bad suggestion, since they’re almost there. Too many B737s is a suggestion… Thanks for everything you do, by the way. Will the 757s be released at some point, or will the missing ones no longer be added?
