Gametime vs Real time
« on: August 27, 2019, 11:28:46 am »
I'm new to the game so I'm still confused about how time passes.

I see there is a date and hour on the top left, so I assume the game is not real time. However when I check an airport the departures are listed using the current time.

So, how does the time work within the game? Is It real time or not?

Thanks!

Each week is a turn, every change you make will take effect on the next full turn.

Currently each turn is about 40 minutes. However long it takes the server to process every route is how long a turn takes.


Ignore the clock. It means nothing.

Basically weeks represent how long it wiil take for changes to take effect then. What about the flight schedules in the airport view? Are they related to the real time? Are flights completed in real time?

The departures view of the airports is for show and entertainment only - nice to look at, but not really relevant to the game. Flights are not in real time. The relevant time unit of the game is a week, which takes about 40 real life minutes. In a week each of your planes completes as many flights as you attribute to it (flight frequency of a route).
