Title: Empty Runway
Post by: Vonjo on October 22, 2011, 03:25:34 AM
Hi,
How to make aircrafts choose to land on an empty unused runway?
My planes always land on just one runway.

There are some ways:
1. one-way signs - for separating of landing planes from planes that take off
2. way-point between runway and one-way sign - for each line could have own landing and take off runway

No more is possible. Choosing of free landing runway (for one line, if one is just used) is not available.

In that way I could have following airport

Each of three lines had own runway for landing and for taking off - but inside one line, if runway was just used, other airplanes had to wait.

Perhaps there could be a 'Air Traffic control' building?  When purchased and attached to an airport it acts like a 'Choose signal' and directed aircraft to any available airstrip if its chosen airstrip was not available. Just a thought.

VaclavMacurek,
Thanks. I will try it. I should update if i get it done.
I like the airport. It looks nice. Airport with most runway I ever see in Simutrans.

Severous,
Thanks. I just know that this feature exists. I should try that too. I thought the ATC is just like another normal airport extension.

Vonjo..Good luck making it work.  Please note however I was just expressing an idea. I do not know if such a feature exists - indeed I have not used an Airplane in Simutrans recently.
