Announcing a new idea ... FLIGHT CLUB
« on: May 17, 2019, 02:45:27 pm »
So as a minor developer that pitches in once in a great while, I've been musing upon various possibilities for the game. In fact I've tried a few with some minor success, but I think I've hit upon something fun and want to hear YOUR opinion and ideas.

First of all, the main server is the main server. It's the master game .. it's the RISK of airline management (If you've ever played RISK .. you'll get it)! Give Patson all your love and hard earned dollars for the juggernaut he's created.

What I'm proposing and will be implementing on my development server (which as of now I'll open to the general public .. details below) is a slightly different model based on the system Patson has given us. Here is what I'm going to be working on:

  • Each game will only last perhaps 2 to 4 weeks
  • World Reset after each game concludes
  • Each game has a unique goal, for instance .. Rule Country X .. or provide the most service to a world cup location
  • Each game will have limitations .. like you can only have bases at Class 5 or smaller airports .. or no one can be based in the country to win
  • There will only be 2 "ticks" a day .. instead of continuous ticks, the system will process 26 or 52 weeks at a time
  • There will be a 2 or 3 day dead period at the start of the each game to give players an equal footing before begins
  • and more as I develop it

I know it's bad form to talk about flight club, in fact it's really rule number 1, but I never was good at following the rules.

Right now my development server is open at https://flight-club.md-88.net .. as an open world for me to test things as I get them worked out. Mind you this is a development server at this stage and prone to random wipes, changes, or ruthless dictatorship under the guise of My Holy Cowness. You are free to come fool around on it if you wish. I look forward to hearing ideas for possible games if you have any. Just remember, AC is still the main server and to give Patson his props for developing a wonderful system. I want this to be a little mini-game off to the side.
