Add in real routes
-
Hi, I just purchased and have been working on getting things set up. Everything is going smoothly, and I am hopefully starting my 1st leg soon. I've entered American Airlines at CLT (also my VA and Hub) to fly the A319 on the many routes AA flies.
I noticed, however, that many of the short routes are actually not populating even though I have the timer set for 30 minute minimum. There are at least 20 destinations within a 45 minute block-time that AA flies to. Is there a way to add in those destinations? -
Hey - this may be because of the airport size restrictions that are currently in place. Fly the Line only supports medium and large airports but it will support small airfields soon. I think once it does, it will show up some of the missing airfields you're referring too. Another thing you can try is to reduce your runway length under advanced. It's set by default to 7000ft. Slide it down to 4000ft and you will probably see some more appear.

Hmmm, that didn't change anything... plus, quite a few of the airports are larger airports and have long runways (some, have multiple) but are fairly close to CLT...
Some of those are KRDU, KCHS, KMYR, KGSO, KGSP, KAVL... Which are serviced by AA. If they can't be manually added, it's ok, I guess. There are plenty of other routes to fly. -
Hi Neo ,
if we took at VOE schedule data there are a lot of routes missing , any idea on this?
They operate in real life I've sent screenshots to the fb page ,
On the system there's only 12 routes from one airport IRL its double the routesRegards

Leave this with me and I'll see if I can refine it. I suspect, as it randomly picks the routes, it's simply not picking them up. You may find if you regenerate your schedule a few times the routes will appear. I've also had several requests for adding an "Airports to Include" option as well as the exclusion option. That's already on the to-do list may solve your issue by forcing certain routes. Watch this space!

@NeoGeo78 The "Airports to Include" is exactly what I was thinking in my first post. That would be perfect! I'll definitely keep an eye out for that.

Just wanted to add to this - I think some of this is related to min flight duration. I'll refine as I go but in the next build I've reduced the the min runway length to 3000ft and the min flight time to 20 mins and Im seeing more of the shorter routes. And I'm testing small airfields. This should ensure more airports appear in real world routes.

@NeoGeo78 That sounds great Neo! Looking forward to testing it out.
