citationx Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 I am trying to create a realistic airline, but I seem to have run into finance issues lately. The pricing per ticket is inline with what real world airlines are charging, but fuel seems to be so high that it makes the route not profitable. Is this a common issue and is there a work around for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketRod Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 What I have done is get the average fuel price from my hubs and used that price per lb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OA01 Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 The default fuel price is $5.10 p/lb, WAY to high!!! The real world price is $0.44 p/lb!!! Edit your \\core\local.config.php file and make it look like this (Mine is in Euro): /* Fuel info - Price correct as of 13-06-14. Sum=price(p/g) / 6.7 then convert to Euro Default fuel price, for airports that don't have live pricing And the surcharge percentage. View the docs for more details about these */ Config::Set('FUEL_GET_LIVE_PRICE', true); Config::Set('FUEL_DEFAULT_PRICE', '0.32'); Config::Set('FUEL_SURCHARGE', '0.0'); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
