Re: Suggestions for the Future of Air Command
Wow, a stale nine-year old thread. Why not respond? I was a young man when this one started.
Okay, things I want:
1) Some indications on where the planes entering are coming in at, as well as their altitudes. I've had planes dusted that are all happily on their way to the VOR and suddenly a plane comes out of the sun and game over. Sigh.
2) Better vectoring to the VOR. Sometimes it works well - like Atlanta. Sometimes it sucks, like LAX. Really, you need the planes to try to fly the short leg of the run to the VOR first, so they come in on a more usable angle for landing. It makes such a difference to be able to tell the guy to find his own damn way to the airport without me stearing him him.
3) Yeah, emergencies. Click this option on, and some plane, somewhere, will declare an emergency. For every five minutes you keep him up, it cost you points. It would be really cool if you could land them anywhere. If you have an engine fire, you'll hardly be picky.
4) The fast and slow differentials are too great. Planes just run away whem they throttle up and hand in space when they throttle back. Half the effect would be nice.
Thats all I got.
