Things that (in my opinion) should be changed

It's OK, I don't mind the questions
So all three modes run off the same logic so I need to look at how to seperate it (or for it to run across all three). I will look in to it but it will be a bit further down the line as there are a few things that need doing before then. As I said before, no promises at this stage, but I will review. If it's not too complex, I will likely bring it in.
@NeoGeo78 Of course, thanks for considering it, take your time. In any case, I don’t think it’s much more complicated to remove or disable the sync than to keep it, mainly because it’s just going to give you headaches all the time, since as I said, it’s a feature that only causes problems for both the users who have to deal with it and the developer who has to fix it. In fact, I’ve already seen several posts here with problems of that kind. It would make your life easier in the long run.

Hello. I have not purchased this program, and I’ll explain why. Perhaps this could also serve as an idea for the developers. What I would absolutely love (and I believe many others here would as well) is the ability to create our own customized schedules. Please correct me if I’m wrong, but from what I’ve read, the program generates routes for you. I like to fly older planes (such as the Fokker F28, BAe 146, MD-80, etc.) from defunct airlines. If this program allowed me not only to create these airlines but also to recreate their past bespoke schedules, which are easily found on sites like timetableimages.com, departedflights.com, and flightsimdispatch.com, that would be fantastic!

I second that. It would also be great if schedules could be shared between users. I imagine a community page where everyone can upload a schedule.

Creating your own schedules defeats the purpose of the program...to fly the line, i.e. the schedule you're given. Even with APL2, which essentially is the same root designed product, you can't create your own schedules.

And I thought the purpose was to entertain its users
But more seriously: what's the harm in letting users generate their own airline with preferred airports? For instance, one that focuses on specific addon airports or mimics a combination of small airlines. I used APL2 for about 3-4 months intensely, but then it got repetitive. Letting users fiddle with parameters can keep them interested. -

I may have misspoken. What I meant to say is that I would like the option to create bespoke routes (not schedules) based on older airlines that are no longer in operation. Since the program already supports real routes from current airlines, it seems logical - and really no different from what the program already does - to also provide the flexibility to fly defunct airlines with their actual routes rather than (or in addition to) random ones.

This feature has been added to the next release. It's undergoing testing at the moment - it's quite a significant change so there's quite a lot to check but so far, so good. I'm close to finilising the next release so it shouldn't be too long.

I'm so excited for this. I can start using it again!
