Oh no… just multiple floors which means an entire new grid system and literally a new dimension for the AI (will be super fun to merge out development branches on top of that), localizing the entire game (which @Alexander is having a “blast” doing) and adding a bunch of additional turnaround services… at least it’s going to be super fun! :smiley:

There was a minor service vehicle bug in Alpha 30.1-4 that has now been patched, i.e. we deployed another update on the default branch. Same version number and everything but just though I’d let you know! :slight_smile:

I have full confidence in you three. Brings the game to a whole new level (pun intended)

Looks like we’re quite stable with the default release, we won’t deploy an update today as we’d rather rely on more bug report data coming in before making decisions on what to patch. With this update now out on default, we will now start to really prioritize new development for a while meaning that the patches will be lower in frequency. We’ll detail this in Monday’s dev blog! :slight_smile:

Just loaded my first save in 30.1-4, and no soundtrack, and tons of dings from shops/food rooms opening/closing. Please, could someone then explain what the solving of Bug ACEO-11638 did?

187

I have noticed that new plane (Yellow Bastard) landing on my runway which is set for taking off only, after loading my save game - which is quite frequent with the amount of bugs I am experiencing (most seem due to remote stands and delayed aircraft getting stuck in the ground procedures).

188

Did you change the runway’s setting short before saving?

189

I have reported this a few times, but the fixes have gone past my bug report number. Please can someone tell me how I fix the issue where all the passengers of flights are just not showing up for flights, as shown on the timetable attached.

No I have not changed the runway settings since last year. One for landings and one for take offs. I noticed its happened twice.

191

I feel like you should open up a new topic in support section to discuss the problems you’re having. It’ll take some time to analyse, and you’ll be asked for screenshots. Start with screenshot of your arrival zone as well.

Possibly not a bug, in my own experience: Do you have enough possibilities for public transports? You could try to build additional public bus stops or subway stations.

edit: … also there could be to few check-in desks. If this is the reason, you should get notifications (see the icons in the upper left of your screen) about missing check-in desks though.

Sure you haven’t muted the soundtrack or something? The room dings were reintroduced but will be crushed today.

194

@Olof, no, my sound was on 5%, which is more than enough for my machine, otherwise I find it overpowering. That’s not that big of a deal to me as the room dinging Haha.
