Headquarter Patch 1.1.7 - english language! |
 Our new Flightmanagement-System is running now for a few months. And we are very happy and proud about the progress. The stats are looking good and the development is going on.
Based on the feedback of our pilots, the next update of the Headquarter will include some new features.
Here is a list, what you can expect:
- Schedule and Charterflights will be seperated
Charterflights wont be simulated within our Fleetsimulation anymore. This solves the problem with flights which are not bookable by the current system, because of the missing transfer-flights. Anyway the charterflights are included in your logbook and the avag-stats.
- FlyAVA-Flighthours will be implemented
This is for the former AVAG-Pilots who used the old Fly-AVA-System. Your Flighthours will be imported to your current pilotlog.
- Flightbooking-System changes
The booking-system will be changed. If you book a flight, the plane for this flight will be locked automatically. So it wont be possible that another pilot "steal" the plane for another flight in the meantime.
- Logbook changes
The logbook will be reworked and it will become a menu-item within the main-menu of the Headquarter.
- Freeflights
Many of you asked for this, now it will become reality. You have the option to do a free flight. Choose departure, destination, aircraft of your choice, file a flightplan and take off. The flight will be stored in your logbook but it doesn't count for the Headquarterstats. Same for the flighthours, they will be added to your personal logbook but not to the official AVAG-Flighthours.
We cannot give an exact releasedate, but it will be in 2009:)
Regards,
Chris |

Headquarter Patch 1.1.7 |
Seitdem das neue Headquarter in Betrieb genommen wurde, haben wir viel Feedback zum aktuellen System erhalten. Mit dem kommenden Patch auf Version 1.1.7, werden wir die erste Funktion-Erweiterung freigeben.
Die wesentlichsten Änderungen im Detail:
- Trennung zwischen Schedule- und Charterflügen
Charterflüge werden zukünftig aus der Flottensimulation herausgelöst. Somit können auch Flüge gebucht werden, welche derzeit nicht buchbar sind, da die dafür notwendigen Transferflüge nicht simuliert werden.
- FlyAVA Flugstunden werden importiert
Die versprochenen Flugstunden aus der alten FlyAVA Datenbank werden euren aktuellen Piloten-Accounts gutgeschrieben. Bitte beachtet nochmal, dass ihr euer altes FlyAVA-Callsign angegeben habt.
- Buchungsprozess wird aufgeteilt
Um zu verhindern, dass euch Flugzeuge während der Flugroutenplanung wegebucht werden, wird der Buchungsprozess aufgeteilt. Der erste Schritt der Buchung wird, wie derzeit üblich, via OPS erledigt, der zweite Schritt erfolgt über das Logbuch.
- Logbuch wird überarbeitet
Das Logbuch wird komplett überarbeitet und wird als eigener Menüpunkt zur Verfügung stehen.
- Freiflüge
Es wird eine Möglichkeit geschaffen, mit welcher ihr beliebige Flugstrecken erstellen und abfliegen könnt. Auch bei der Wahl des Flugzeugmusters seid ihr nun nichtmehr auf den aktuellen Flottenstatus limitiert.
Das sind die wesentlichsten Änderungen welche mit Patch 1.1.7 eingeführt werden. Ein genaues Release-Datum liegt noch nicht vor, wir planen jedoch den Patch bis Ende des Jahres einzuspielen. |
