Game World #3 is our dedicated "Modern Times" scenario that focuses on managing the airlines in the present and future era. The overall play duration of the Game World #3 is about 10 months.
This new scenario utilizes the new settings with a play time extended to year
2036!
This game world will follow the standard settings for long AirwaySim games:
- Standard difficulty level
- All airports, all aircraft models (including the "prototypes") and all features are included.
- Time span: 1998 - 2036
- Game's speed is 30 minutes per day (faster than the usual 35 mins per day).
- Fuel prices are customized and may not follow real world history.
- Passenger demand levels follow the standard realistic settings but are lower at the very start of the game and will gradually grow.
- The aircraft production rates and amount of airport slots are higher compared to the standard "realworld" setting.
If it has been a while since you started at early stages in a major AirwaySim games, here are a few reminders and tips:
- The game clock is paused for the first day and will start moving after 24 hrs.
- There are plenty of used aircraft available to begin with, but the used aircraft market will soon become limited and the popular aircraft types are sold/leased very quickly. Take care when picking the aircraft you plan to use. The used aircraft market will refresh several times during the first static 24 hour day.
- Be patient with the route sales figures since your Route Image grows slowly. Do not spend all your cash on planes at once, remember to leave a good reserve. It takes time to gain profits and there might be unexpected early problems..
- Some popular airports, or other small airports, will for sure become limited on airport slots soon. This is normal and you should use larger aircraft or other airports in that case.
- Consider joining an alliance from early stages of the game, they are great resources for improving your game play (tips and help from fellow players).
