I had done all grants and completed all the research, but my airport was still pretty small. After I completed all the government grants, I didn’t really feel like I built a particularly cool or advanced airport. All of these tracks are presented at once though, without indication of which are more appropriate for early or late game. Some of the first tier items were not sustainable to afford the daily costs of early game, as I learned with my first airport that went bankrupt fairly quickly.
However, I didn’t find that they gave very good directions to the player. Searching for each item in the kitchen tutorialįor progression in the game, there’s a set of government grants that lead the player like quests through a number of different tracks. This was true for a lot of things, such as conveyors not showing up when looking for baggage related items.
And then even after finding it, I don’t know what section it would’ve been under to try to find it again int he future. For example, I had trouble when I was trying to build my kitchen I wanted to find what I would call a “stove”, but neither that nor “kitchen” found the item because it was called a “cooker”. Then next time I wouldn’t have to search for it again. In lieu of that, I wanted to know what section an item was in after I found it. If the player wants to build a ticketing zone, then all the things that probably apply to a ticket zone should be together, or just the ability to search ticketing and find all of those things. I found it difficult to find things and I really wanted things to be organized by zone. The biggest one was the item organization within the menu where players select items to build. However, there were some aspects of the building that I found difficult. Workers can access areas without a door, allowing players to prepare an area before allowing in passengers Just laying the foundation to build any new structures costs a significant amount of money as is expected, but I found myself AFK with the game on for nontrivial amounts of time, just to get the money, to be able to build something interesting and then leave it running again for a while.
I also found that the player ends up sitting around a lot, just waiting for income. The player has to sit with max fast forward and wait for nearly a minute for the night to pass every night until they can get lights in on their landing tracks. There’s no way to skip over downtime when the player first starts out and they don’t have the ability to accept flights in the dark and there’s no way to skip over the night. Probably the biggest pain for me was the early game of the airport.
Everything from negotiating with airlines in order to give them dedicated offices, restaurants, and first-class lounges, to maintaining oil pricing and fueling, running underground baggage lines, organizing kitchen prep to service cafes, and optimizing security throughput. I was pleased that there were many simulated aspects of the airport. For example, in order to take flights at night or during high winds, or to have control over buses and light rails that deliver passengers and staff to the airport. There are a number of ways to improve fine-grain control over the airport. With improvements to their airport, players can handle larger planes with more crew, earn more income per passenger, and optimize movement around the airport. For instance, the player will likely need to provide food or shopping areas in order to keep their passengers happy and will likely need to build offices, conference rooms, and dedicated areas for certain airlines in order to negotiate higher value deals. But there are many aspects beyond that that are necessary to successfully grow and build the player’s airport. To get the basics of an airport up and running, they’ll need a ticketing area, security boundary, airplane gate, taxiway and runway, and baggage area. Players can start either with a prebuilt starter airport or a blank canvas. SimAirport allows players to control the many aspects of owning and operating an airport. Finding this review helpful?
