  • Other – for anything not covered by the above (e.g. tutorials, accessibility, languages)

:bullseye: What is your suggestion?
Clearly describe your idea or the change you’re proposing.

This would allow planes, once they have the gate chosen, to be set in a landing pattern like actual airports. It would allow us to be able to then clear planes in order instead of just picking a random one.

:hammer_and_wrench: How would it work in the game?
Explain how this would be implemented from a gameplay or UI perspective.
Could be a schedule change, but you would pick the plane you want to put in order and if it is first, click clear to land. If it is second, you could click a drop-down menu that would set the order, whether you want it to be 2nd, 4th, 17th, whatever. There would be enough numbers for how many planes are able to land at the moment, so if you have 10 planes with a gate chosen and able to land, you could set an order for those 10.

:balance_scale: Why is this a good idea?
What improvement would this bring? Better usability, realism, fun factor, accessibility?
Would bring more realism, like actual ATCs. Also would bring some more fun, even if it could be a bit harder to learn immediately.

Attach anything that helps visualize or support your idea.
