A Question For the Devs

[andyjohnston.net 617]

As we know the devs keep an eye on this forum, I hope they will see fit to answer two of the most important questions we have been asking:

 

Will there be ATC included?
It is essential for IFR, etc

 

Will there be AI aircraft

Essential for realism.  There was something mentioned somewhere that there would be "green dots" indicating the location of real world aircraft.  Of course, a dot and not a model kills the realism effect, and they will not respond at all to the above mentioned ATC (if included.)

Way too early,  they've said what they could. And what they've said has been repeated. We have lots of time,  and more and more features are put in daily. Soon enough we will all know what will be in production. They are nowhere close to production .... or Beta yet.

These questions have been answered several times by the devs. ATC is not included yet but will surely come in due time. AI Aircrafts are there.

They mentioned that they could use some of the code in FSX that used to work well. I think the ATC in FSX was a fairly good, out of the box, feature for users to get some kind of basic clearances...

Of course there is always room for improvements but at least it's something that could be used somehow and not re-written.

Another altnernative is to buy/license some ATC simulator framework out there and implement it 🙂

Oh?  I haven't seen anything official related to this.  Must have missed it.
