With the current route demand approximation system, it's too basic. What I want for AirwaySim is something like this:
Dp=(I1+I2)*(T1+T2)*100,
whereas Dp is the passenger demand, I1 and I2 are the infrastructure levels of the origin and destination, and T1 and T2, the traffic levels of the origin and destination.
In accompany, cargo demand approximations should be calculated, as follows:
Dc=L/(CL+CS+CH)*200,
whereas Dc is the cargo demand, L is the runway length at the destination airport, and CL, CH and CS, the amount of aircraft you have that can carry one, two, or three of these cargo types (light, standard, and heavy).
