Real world traffic


Recommended Posts

I bought this sim as a sign of support for a job well done. I am, however, looking forward to a somewhat crucial feature for me, that being real world traffic. An option to have a real schedule on a given airport, along with an traffic editor is, I feel, crucial to make this a complete package. Are there any plines in the pipeline for such a feature?

All the best!

I would have to agree that some form of real world load on airports would be a good inclusion in this if not actual real world then some form of parameter in the database that holds arrival and departure load for each hour of the day then when starting a scenario you choose the start time and the workload is randomised from the figures in the database for that time of day and subsequently updated as time passes.

Having an effectively static workloads i.e. constant rate of traffic makes it very boring after a short period of time as you always know what is coming. This results in a game/simulator with a very short life spam.

I have played a few ATC sims that have real traffic , although it's a nice feature I prefer to have random generated traffic as you never know what's coming or how May flights you have to handle and no two sessions will ever be the same .

For me the issue is that there appears to be no other aircraft, other than those within my sector. For instance, within the London area there is Heathrow, Gatwick, London City and Standstead (and Luton can be included if you must), and all of those airports have aircraft coming and going, and causing air traffic .... within the game we only have air traffic coming in and out of the airport we are directing.
