aarbee Posted October 29, 2012 Report Posted October 29, 2012 Hello, I am getting my routesystem together. But slowly I am also thinking about adding some bigger planes, and bigger airports. Yet I know, that you need a special permit to fly to London City, or Innsbruck or Lugano (They have steeper arrivals or the ILS is not in line with the runway). Suppose I have an ATR on some routes including the above once. Yet I do not put a trip from Maastricht to Amsterdam not equal to a trip from Maastricht to Lugano. In that case I would like to restrict these 3 routes to if you have a higher rank. How can I accomplish this? Restrict them to an airplane? I was thinking to put the trip to Lugano on a smaller aircraft. Quote
Moderators Parkho Posted October 29, 2012 Moderators Report Posted October 29, 2012 Are you using the default booking system? If yes, I have a module which is based on 2 different modules which I mixed them. That module has aircraft restrictions and the pilot who's rank is not high enough won't be able to see those heavy aircraft to begin with. Here is the link: FlightBookingSystem_V1.0 Quote
aarbee Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Posted October 29, 2012 Does this mean that pilots have to bid on flights? Because that is not what I intended. Quote
Moderators Parkho Posted October 29, 2012 Moderators Report Posted October 29, 2012 What do you intend to do then? Cause if you're trying to restrict some routes for higher ranks then that goes to schedule_results.tpl which will be showed when you are to bid on a flight. Quote
aarbee Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Posted October 29, 2012 I have no bidding intended. Considering me, everybody can fly what he wants. Even if 2 people fly the same route, the same day ;-). Quote
mischka Posted October 29, 2012 Report Posted October 29, 2012 In that case I would like to restrict these 3 routes to if you have a higher rank. Considering me, everybody can fly what he wants. I'm confused! At any rate, you can set a "minimum rank" to every single airplane in your fleet, it's not by type. So if you have route 1, 2 and 3 by an ATR callsign RB1, and route 4, 5 and 6 by ATR callsign RB2, you can restrict RB2 to a minimum rank 1st officer. Then you can do all the "difficult" routes with RB2 while newbies can still use the ATR on routes 1, 2 and 3 Quote
aarbee Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Posted October 29, 2012 No confusing intended. I do not want to use bidding. People can fly whatever is available. Yet on 1 plane I have 5 trips. And I want to restrict 1 of them to a higher rank. Quote
mischka Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 Why you don't want to use bidding? As far as I know, I can file a pilot report manually even for a route I'd normally not be allowed to fly. You have to be very vigilant approving pireps without the bidding system, if you want to restrict certain trips Quote
