ATC Ground Point changes
This update to the public beta contains a new type of game mode, Time Schedule. In this mode a schedule file is used in which each flight has a specific landing/takeoff time, callsign and aircraft type which means it is possible to match real life schedules. For this mode a new supporting program has been created, the Schedule Viewer. It shows all flights and also hourly numbers for arrivals, departures and stand usage.
To start with only two of the default airports (CYVR and EGLC) have schedule files. However, the plan is to have one schedule file for each of the default airports. The builder and workshop have been updated to make it possible to upload schedule files.
The builder has also gotten more updates, for example it is no longer necessary to specify icon after airplane model. The game will automatically match the model to an icon based on the size of the aircraft. Furthermore, maximum wingspan for stands and possibility for stands to block each other has been added.
Thanks for playing!
