Three fixes targeting issues reported by players this week. Appreciate the reports — keep them coming. Crew Salaries Found a unit conversion issue where crew salary calculations were running about 100x higher than intended, plus a secondary billing overlap in simulation mode. If
Thanks for the bug reports — I hear you, and I've been digging into the issues you've flagged. This patch targets several of the most-reported problems. Some of these are complex interconnected systems, so I'm being upfront: I believe these changes address the root causes, but I'
- Fixed Contracts in Fuel Aquisiotion from duplication
- Removed the left sidebar entirely, moved all navigation into the top bar dropdowns - Added a status strip below the nav showing Cash, Fuel gauge, Wings, and EOS progress - Bumped font sizes across the app for better 1080p readability - FIDS board now shows the rotation-defined
Fixed a bug where loading a save could trap you in an endless Day Complete modal loop. If your game was saved mid-sequence (during the end-of-day flow or negotiations), reloading would put you right back into the modal with no way out. What was happening: The "View Summary" butto
The slot negotiation panel showed "Arrive KABQ" and "Aircraft returns KABQ" when it should have shown the hub airport. Both labels now correctly show the hub code.
PA Audio PA toggle now remembers your setting when switching screens Muting Sound Effects in Audio Settings now also silences gate announcements Slot Negotiations Fixed flight times showing as 90 minutes for all destinations regardless of actual distance. Negotiations now calcula
Thank you to everyone playing, reporting bugs, and pushing the systems hard. Your feedback drives every update. Keep it coming. CORE GAMEPLAY Flight creation unified across all modes. Routes created through the wizard, scheduler, or map now produce consistent, complete flights ev
Crash Fix Fixed a crash that could occur when aircraft are grounded for overdue maintenance, causing the game to freeze on the Ops Center or World Map screens. If you experienced a sudden white screen or freeze mid-session, this was likely the cause. Save System Fixes Fixed manua
CREW DEADHEAD MECHANIC (NEW SYSTEM) Files: CrewDeadheadMechanic.js, CrewPositionBoard.jsx Crew members are now physical. When they fly to Fort Lauderdale, they are IN Fort Lauderdale. No teleporting home. If there's no return flight, they stay stranded at $225/day (hotel + per di
Clock-driven flight phases. Game clock is now the single source of truth. Flights depart and arrive at the times shown on the FIDS board. Phase transitions tied to clock timestamps, not distance fractions. Speed slider scales the clock directly. FIDS now shows both DEP and ETA co
WHAT THIS IS Simulation Mode. A complete rebuild of Airline Ops from a casual arcade game into a real airline operations simulator. You start with $40M, zero aircraft, and nothing given to you. This is an Early Access build. It works. It's deep. It's not finished. You will find b
Critical fixes.
There have been some false, misleading and plainly uneducated posts and concerns that Airline Ops is a Pay-to-win game. That couldn't be further frokm the truth. First of all - it's not a multiplayer game. Second of all the only competitive aspect would be the leaderboard but the
Route deletion breaks New Route dropdowns. Native confirm() dialog in Electron was corrupting React's event system, making inputs unresponsive. Replaced with React-based confirmation modal. Also swapped alert() for toast notification.
Fixes: - All route polylines removed from map by default. Click a plane to show its great circle route. Click another plane to swap. Route persists until you select a different flight or it lands. - Origin/destination markers — Green dot + ICAO label at origin, red dot + label at
Overview You can now schedule flights to depart automatically at specific times; no more babysitting every route. How It Works From the Routes page, hit the purple SCHED button on any ready route. A modal lets you pick: - Route — pre-selected from the button you clicked, or choos
Fixes - TRACK Button — Fixed crash (Cannot access 'Gn' before initialization) and broken follow behavior. TRACK now programmatically clicks the actual plane marker on the map — identical behavior to tapping a flight manually (camera follow, zoom, selection). - White Screen of Dea
People are reporting intermittent crashed. Becasue this was built on React/Electron there can be some funky behavior in steam. Critical Steam Fixes * Disable Steam Overlay : Some Electron versions conflict with the Steam Overlay. Disable it in __Steam Properties__ to see if that
