v0.6.101.29: Casey's Aircraft Price Audit

  • Casey pulled the invoice records and found the Skybus A320 listed at $10M. The A319 costs $24M. Something was off. The A320 now costs $24M, right where it belongs between the A319 and A321.

  • The Bering 777-200 was carrying 350 passengers in a three-class layout. Casey measured the cabin and says that's a 777-300 worth of seats. Corrected to 305, which matches the real-world config and sits properly below the 200ER's 313.

v0.6.101.28: Casey's Suggestion Box

  • Met all era objectives early? Casey now puts a 'Claim Victory' button right on the Era Objectives panel. No more waiting for December to roll around. If there's a next era, the button says 'Advance to Next Era' instead.

  • Antitrust regulators will no longer fine you or force-sell your routes in a region where you're the only airline. If the AI packed up and left, that's not your fault. Casey argued the case in court and won. Regulators will still try to spawn competitors to keep things interesting.

v0.6.101.27: Casey's Export Compliance Report

  • Airframe modifications (winglets, fairings, aux tanks, denser seating) now show up in the Bulk Fleet Modification panel. Casey found the parts catalog was using a filing system that only works in the hangar, not in the shipped build. Swapped to a proper manifest.

  • Nine African cities south of the equator were being classified as Oceania by the map's region heuristic. Durban-Johannesburg was flagged as an overwater route requiring ETOPS clearance. Casey has updated the charts.

  • Brand traits (manufacturer bonuses and personalities) now load correctly in shipped builds. Same manifest fix as the airframe mods. Your Bering fleet was secretly flying without its brand identity.

v0.6.101.26: Casey's Route Visibility Fix

  • Fixed a bug where airplane sprites on the map would appear during load, then vanish and never come back. Casey's radar was showing ghosts. The map's performance mode was escalating to 'hide planes' mid-rebuild but never de-escalating when route count dropped.

  • Route removal (from AI pruning or manual close) now re-checks the display mode. If you drop below the threshold, your planes come back on their own.

v0.6.101.25: Casey's Runway Inspection

  • The upgrade recommender no longer suggests aircraft that need a longer runway than your route's airports can handle. Casey was getting tired of recommending 747s to bush strips.

v0.6.101.24: Casey's Polish Pass

  • Settings panel no longer forces horizontal scrolling. Casey found the options were wider than the window. Labels and dropdowns now clip to fit, the banned-aircraft buttons stack vertically, and career stats wrap onto the next line.

  • Map pan on ultrawide monitors no longer warps the cursor to the wrong spot. The drag release was converting coordinates in viewport space, but the OS expected window space. Fixed on standard pan and controller-to-keyboard handoff.

  • Hangar tab now shows a custom-spec badge when any stored aircraft have non-stock order specs. You can finally tell your extended-range birds from the stock models.

v0.6.101.23: Casey's Spec Sheet Upgrade

  • The Custom Order Spec panel now shows what your choices actually do. Effective range, passenger capacity, and fuel efficiency update live as you toggle aux tanks, weight variants, and seat configs. Casey was tired of pilots ordering extended tanks and then asking 'so how far can we fly now?'

v0.6.101.22: Casey's Calendar Correction

  • Quarterly Reports now show the correct quarter. Casey caught the bean counters labeling September's books as Q4 instead of Q3. The report title reads the snapshot taken when the quarter closed, not the ticker that already flipped ahead.

v0.6.101.21: Casey's Manifest Audit

  • Transfer passengers now survive save and reload. Casey found the manifest getting wiped during boarding. Your hub network keeps its connecting traffic exactly where you left it.

  • Pausing mid-month no longer drops a month of bookkeeping. The settlement paperwork goes through whether or not you step away from the desk.

  • Solo play with zero rivals stays solo. Casey stopped the dispatchers from sneaking competitors onto your tarmac after loading a save.

  • Suspended routes with no fleet can no longer be resumed into a zombie state. The Resume button now checks that you actually have planes before waving the green flag.

v0.6.101.20: Casey's Labor Relations Office

  • When your crew union contract expires, Casey walks in with a clipboard and a stack of demands. You now sit down at the table with the union and negotiate: accept their terms, slide the numbers around with a counter-offer, or reject outright and hope they don't walk out. Each deal shapes your wages, crew benefits, fatigue policy, and reputation for years.

  • Route economics now scale with weekly frequency. A route flying once a week carries fewer passengers and burns less fuel than one flying daily. Changing frequency in Route Details shows a profit delta in the toast so you know the math before you commit. Casey inspected the books and found the old formula charging full price for planes that were mostly parked.

  • The CREW & LABOR section in Route Details shows your active union contract terms: wage raises, benefits package, and rest policy.

v0.6.101.19: Casey's Discord Dispatch

  • Changing weekly flights now shows a toast with slot ops impact and transfer appeal shift. Casey likes to see the numbers move before he signs off.

  • Pausing during a month rollover no longer drops a month of bookkeeping. Casey found the settlement paperwork in the wrong tray.

  • Routes suspended by seasonal capacity restrictions now reactivate reliably when the restriction lifts. The Route Manager also shows seasonal, off-season, strike, and sanctions status instead of hiding them as active.

  • ETOPS overwater calculations now use the correct max diversion distance instead of doubling it. Russia counts as Eurasia. Advanced avionics unlock ETOPS-330 for transpacific twins.

  • Transfer passengers survive save and reload. Casey sealed the passenger manifest.

v0.6.101.18: Casey's Live Gauges

  • Route stats now update live. Open a route, and you see current projected load, profit, and demand without waiting for the monthly tick. Casey installed real-time gauges in the cockpit.

  • The Route Manager table refreshes when you create, swap, suspend, or close a route. No more staring at yesterday's numbers.

  • Adjusting the pricing slider recalculates stats on release so you can see the impact of your fare changes right away.

  • New routes show a CURRENT PROJECTION header instead of LAST MONTH until the first monthly tick runs. A hint explains the numbers are estimates.

  • Tooltips on the Route Manager's load and profit columns tell you when a value is projected vs. confirmed.

v0.6.101.17: Casey's Sticky Spec Memo

  • Custom order specs now stick. Configure your aircraft once and order as many as you want without re-entering the spec each time. Casey laminated the build sheet.

  • Order specs survive save and load. Your avionics and seating choices are right where you left them.

  • Bug reports now combine history logs into single files to stay under Discord's attachment limit. Steam display name and ID are included in the report embed.

v0.6.101.16: Casey's Spec Sheet Audit

  • Custom order specs now update the Aircraft Info display. Capacity, range, fuel use, CO2, and cabin config all reflect your MTOW, tank, and seating choices. Casey stopped reading the stock brochure.

  • Placing a custom order now charges the spec-adjusted price and delivery time. Your Comms Log shows the real numbers, not the stock sticker.

  • Selling aircraft to the used market now carries the original build year. A 1955 DC-7 no longer pretends it rolled off the line today. Pricing reflects proper depreciation.

  • Aircraft Info refreshes automatically after saving or clearing a custom spec. No more closing and reopening the panel.

v0.6.101.15: Casey's Black Box Upgrade

  • Save & Exit now writes to the slot you last saved to, instead of always overwriting the autosave. Casey spotted the misfiled paperwork.

  • Diagnostics and engine logs now keep 10 sessions of history. If something goes wrong, the flight recorder has the evidence.

  • Bug report panel gains optional 'Older session logs' attachments. Attach up to 10 sessions of diagnostic and Godot logs when filing a report.
