Feature Requests to save time
« on: April 09, 2024, 12:07:20 am »
Firstly, thanks for implementing the dynamic number of luggage carts based on payload :-)

GSX is great but still more time-consuming than it needs to be. And, faster is more realistic.

1) Make the baggage handlers throw suitcases faster. That belt should have at least 3-4 bags on it at once. Surely they aren't ALL lazy unionized workers.

2) Have an "initial prep" option that will have the ground crew just install the nose gear pin and connect the tug. That can happen at any time, including during boarding, and will save time when initiating the actual pushback.

Faster is not automatically "more realistic", because if you time the timings, they ARE realistic compared to real world, mostly because we are not loading an exact number of bags related to the actual number of passegners but, instead, a reduced amount ( 11 per cart, so it's a maximum of 66 bags at most ), so it's basically the same as we took your suggestion to load 3-4 bags at once, because we basically are, since 3/4 is very close to the reduced ration of bags compared to real life.

It will save you like 30 seconds. But we already confirmed is a planned feature.
