[UI] - Queue contract cancellation after handling

World of Airports Gameplay Suggestions

:bullseye: What is your suggestion?
Currently we can only cancel (hit the cancel button) a contract after finishing handling, but sometimes the planes are not on the ground but we already have a plan to cancel the contract after handling.

I wonder whether we can add a bottom that can cancel the contract automatically after the next handling (so we don’t have to remember which contract until finishing handling).

:hammer_and_wrench: How would it work in the game?

Even if the flight is not handled yet, add a button in the contract card that will cancel the contract after handling is finished.

:balance_scale: Why is this a good idea?
This will increase the flexibility of contract and also the efficiency.

If you really want the contract to end then you would make the effort to do so. I think if we get to the point where all we do is pressing buttons for stuff like that then it wouldnt be the right way to play because it would take the fun of just watching things to instead we get to wait and tap to certain things.

This is a weird criticism, this doesn’t really have anything to do with automation or other features that would end with the game being just “look at things happening”.

All this is asking for is to be able to cancel a contract at any time - because the game is currently limiting it to when a plane is not assigned to any stand.

Yes this is true. I also want to emphasize that it is more like a delayed cancellation when the plane is assigned to a stand.

The reason I posted this was that I use the ATC all the time, and my sequence does not help me land the contracts that I want to cancel that quickly. The original thought is that once I have this kind of button, I can just focus on dealing with planes on stand instead of keeping looking back to the contract page once a while.

But I think what you said makes sense! I should make an effort to do so.

thanks, the ATC example makes the use case clearer. would you also want to be able to undo the pending cancellation before handling finishes?

Adding to the request, it would be nice to:

  1. be able to cancel contracts at any given time, for exemple: if we use the ATC and an aircraft is assigned to a slot, it cannot be canceled until after landing and handling.
  2. Please prevent us from being able to cancel favorited contracts. Before the cancel confirmation, which were a great step, I accidentally canceled an one time reward plane from the Pass. Imagine loosing that one and only A225. Not cool…

Thank you kubasan; that feature is great. Also, FocusedDictum70’s idea is pretty cool. I think this is pretty much it if you get my point. Sorry for the confusions earlier; I wasn’t expressing my idea clear enough.
