Named airports and access - Neils Iyssada - 03-25-2019
Hi guys !
What if we could set a named airport as a destination in the order menu ?
Having a simple rank access would be cool too. You could then decide if a said airport is usable by an ally empire (for example).
- Simple system, with few ranks (own empire / ally empire / all)
- Full rank gestion, including the above and each empire rank (+NPCs)
Btw what about some kind of landing path for ships, to make some kind of forward-enter hangar ?

Can't we already do that? There is a "Land at Airport" order.
Or do you mean as a shortcut? Meaning "travel to the system containing this airport and land at it" as a single order?

I believe you can mothball any spacecraft that is landed on a connected building's site. So I am not sure I understand what you are asking here.

i think he means naming 1 pizza and another taco in the same city. my guess is to have a player taxie system

I suggested a taxi/flight path thing for airports a few times too. So I agree with thst idea.
Just isn't what i think of when I read this thread, hence my questions for clarification. ^^;

Something like that yeah, to land on the appropriate airport when there's multiple ones or when I want to do something really quick. For example if I want to land at the airport which is far away from my main city.
Actually you can select a different airport, but the name you set don't appear iirc.

It could even be used to navigate in a station's hangar if you can set the max ship size per landing path.(03-25-2019, 02:03 PM)Neils Iyssada Wrote: Btw what about some kind of landing path for ships, to make some kind of forward-enter hangar ?

If the airport name doesn't appear on the order window's airport list, it is a bug and should be reported.
I have always wanted to be able to go to an airport and ask for a NPC to fly me to another airport in the same system. If on the same planet they could spawn a helicopter and fly me there, or a space transport if the destination is on another planet. Easy flight path system similar to most MMOs like World of Warcraft or Tera.

Might want to make a separate idea thread for this then, since it is only gonna cause more confusion to have two totally separate ideas in one thread.

Time to pay a month and play again to check that :D

I'll make two more thread then, one for spaceship path and one for a kind of taxi building (need NPC vehicle pilots before).

Check what?
It doesn't exist yet, it is just something I have written an idea thread before, and many others before me too.

I know it's not there yet.
To check if I still can't see the airport names.
