Anything that would encourage simmers to try failures and more complex aspects of the sim gets a thumbs up from me

.

I feel the same about it. Good idea. Not realistic is an arguement but it could motivate many to deal with failures they would otherwise just leave off.

 

Ofcourse you can fail a certain item at a certain time already...but I have a feeling that not many use this because of various reasons.

Lazyness.

Afraid it will be too much to handle.

The idea that not reaching destination, but instead having to divert to an alternate airport, sucks because you did reach your goal.

 

I think many would feel quite proud/happy/accomplished after they dealt with a failure correctly and maybe landed at an alternate airport. Even if a sim pause was involved.

And I see nothing wrong with that :-)

I let my sim run for 10 hours but that doesn't mean that I'm actually at the pc for that amount of time.
