General Feature Requests

Yup, you can change Google Map size as well, its in your core/local.config.php:

Config::Set('MAP_WIDTH', '600px');
Config::Set('MAP_HEIGHT', '400px');
Config::Set('MAP_TYPE', 'G_PHYSICAL_MAP');
Config::Set('MAP_LINE_COLOR', '#ff0000');
Config::Set('MAP_CENTER_LAT', '45.484400');
Config::Set('MAP_CENTER_LNG', '-62.334821');

As for languages, once I finalize the admin panel, translations there can occur

Maybe I should get some rest before posting without reading the basics…

Cheers

Hi in the future could we include a built in message system for pilots and staff.

Like what we have in forums.

Well, you have forums already, with PMing systems already which are better than what I’d create, so I don’t see why I should duplicate a messaging system when there’s one already created/being used.

A mass emailing system would be handy, as not all pilots that signed up to the website have signed up on the forum aswell.

hey Nebeeil

it would be asome if we could have a downloads page for our websites. for our fleet.

Yep it’s in there already for the next release

Has anyone requested an exam system for joining pilots?

Yep someone has, but that would be huge, with some major changes. Maybe some day down the line, but not before some other plans I have…

Hi Nabeel,

Is it possible to change the backgrounds for the signatures, based on the rank the pilot has? For example, the lowest rank, ā€œNew Hireā€ would have a picture of an ATR as a bg, whereas the ā€œSenior Captainā€ would have the A346 as a background.

As of now, no, but that’s an interesting concept…

Have something in between admin and pilot… Such as route manager, someone who can do nothing more than add airports and schedules

I’m gonna figure something out for that after release of this next update. That’ll be a bit involving

Thanks… This is a stupid question… But how in the heck do I update

I have been thinking latley,

What if instead of ranks that after getting the required amount of hours you are promoted but instead you must finish a randomly generated test in order to advance. The admins can create questions and set the parameters(number of questions, answer types, time limit etc.) and then upon getting the required hours a test will be sent to your user profile and you can take it whenever you like. Upon completion your answers will be sent to the admin panel as pending, and an administrator can review the results and either promote you are keep you at your current rank. The test results can also be graphed and recorded for further use. I think this same system could also be used for a registration test if the VA pleases. Testing you members would greatly increase the realism in the system and in my mind make the system unique to the others out there.

Yeah, we’ve had this request before a few times. It would need to be customizable enough and be able to use it/not use it. Eventually is the goal…

Nabeel, what i would like to see is the ability to make a pilot inactive, i have added another line to the pilots fields with a gif image just to test, i have a green one and a flashing red one for inactivity ( http://grantsva.com/index.php/pilots ) how hard would this be?

I have the field there (the retired field), I just need to implement it. I’ll add it into the project tracker

How about something that will not allow a pilot to fly aircraft out of their rank privledges?

so the new guy can’t even select a 747 on day one. Perhaps can’t bid out that flight either.
