Flight Contracts

[LordRick]

How can you tell what size planes a contract is for? It used to say small or medium but now it just says flights.

[Bravochick]

As of right now the way I discern is "cheap" means small stand :)

[Bravochick]

if you're opted into the beta though i have been having an issue with all flights turning into cheap flights and then in turn they're all for the medium stnad

[rucusmalan]

1. Yes on Beta you cant tell if a contract is for small or medium and once you build a medium stand almost all contracts are medum only

2. BUT devs are working on changing the flight planner and I assume that will include contracts so changes are coming

[LordRick]

This is a game breaker for the beta. I constantly have to pay penalties because my medium is full and I'm looking for contracts for the small. I would think they would get that fix out there quick since you can't really play without it.

LordRick: Just avoid accepting contracts if your medium stands are already full, you're not forced to use small ones. ;-)

Btw., with the recent experimental update I got one recurrent contract for small stands. Though, it still doesn't show if its a contract for medium or small stands. Just still be carefull when accepting contracts, so that you can fullfill them in time (you get up to 9 days minus the flights you need to service) even if they are for medium stands.

Yeah, I'm waiting for the new contract system getting finished too. But you can still play in the meantime, it's no gamebreaker from an technical sight of view. And if you have too much of small stands, you still can replace them with medium ones. Light aircraft contracts seem to got rare anyway.

[LordRick]

But what if I replace the small stands with medium and then get a small plane contract? That would be a cancellation fee. I will wait for the next patch that hopefully overhauls the contract system. Hopefully large stands are coming!

[Seraphin]

Just don't remove all of the small stands, but just the ones which you don't get contracts for. ;-)

Btw., with the recent patch the size of the aircraft is mentioned again in the contract. Though, once I got a recurrent one talking about light and medium aircraft, but gave only a medium one. So still seems to be buggy for now.

I just managed to sign two contracts for mixed flights, like 5 small + 2 medium, didn't go across pure small flights contract tho.

You're kinda stuck clicking each contract or hovering over the planner right now to check what plane is what size (which suuuuucks). I hope that when they change the contract system they make a way to seperate the different plane sizes for each contract.
