Title Format (required):
Start your topic title with a relevant prefix.
Accepted prefixes:
- UI – for user interface suggestions
- ATC – for aircraft control and movement features
- Economy – for changes to income, payouts, or cost structures
- Cargo – for anything related to cargo operations
- Multiplayer – for co-op, competitive, or social features
- Other – for anything not covered by the above (e.g. tutorials, accessibility, languages)
What is your suggestion?
1. Clear Stand Identification
Use large, yellow alphanumeric codes (e.g., A12, B05) centered at the lead-in line or near the stop position.
Helps both pilots and ground crews identify stands easily from the cockpit and cameras.
2. Lead-In Lines
High-visibility solid yellow line guiding aircraft from taxiway to parking position.
Add alignment aids (e.g., “T” or “split” markings) for precision during turn-in and final alignment.
3. Stop Lines & Types
Include aircraft-specific stop bars labeled by type: A320 / B737, B777 / A350, etc.
Each should have clear nosewheel stop points for correct docking distance.
4. Safety and Service Zones
Fueling area: red border or “FUEL” marking.
Equipment zones: white hatching for GPU, baggage carts, or catering trucks.
Safety lines: keep clear areas marked around jet bridges or propellers.
5. Passenger and Vehicle Guidance
Jet bridge arc markings showing swing range.
Vehicle lanes (white dashed lines) for ground traffic to reduce congestion.
6. Lighting Integration
Optional lead-in centerline lights for night ops.
Stop bar lights to assist precise parking in low visibility.
Color-coded markings by aircraft size category (A–F).
How would it work in the game?
Guidance: Lead-in lines help aircraft taxi accurately to stands.Parking: Stop lines ensure correct alignment for jet bridges and services.
Stand assignment: Dynamic highlights and color codes indicate suitable stands by aircraft size.
Safety zones: Marked areas guide ground vehicles and service operations.
Night/low visibility: Optional lighting improves visual clarity.
Gameplay benefit: Enhances realism, strategic planning, and operational efficiency.
Why is this a good idea?
Adding aircraft stand markings is a good idea because it improves realism, clarity, efficiency, strategic gameplay, immersion, and learning in the game.
Optional: Image or reference
