Classic British Flight Sim

Not really sure why it's such an issue though guys.

There's no difference in benefits or pay, so why is it a big issue whether or not you're 100%?

It's the feeling....

Good 'nuff.

Since the number of pax you have is based partly on your pilots reputation, that last 0.1% might make the difference between filling that last seat or not.

It doesn't.

But it could, based on our initial description of FlyNET

The load you carry per flight is a factor of

Ticket price factor (too high and factor is low) x Airline Reputation x Seating capacity of act x pilot % ranking.

Granted 0.1% is not going to shift it much but its possible. Personally I see no reason why the formula for a pilots reputation should be different from that of the airline.

Good point, well brought up Joe, It would be nice though if you make yourself look a total pratt by leaving the lights on or off at certain altitudes twice in one flight to be able to eventually redeem yourself.

Just a thought lads, don't join Air Yemen VA, they'll chop your joystick hand off for the same offence.

Actually, Konny's calculations work in whole numbers to minimize the chance of a partial person, so it rounds to the nearest whole percentage point. Because of this, there is no change in load factor with your pilot rating between 95% and 100% regardless of aircraft size. Also, airline reputation never will be perfect if there have been deductions. Because reputation is a point structure you won't be able to tell as starting reputation isn't perfect either, so it ends up being really odd to figure out how to be "perfect" since no one is.

If .5 is a whole number then I am the Pope, gracious of you to admit no one is perfect. If you want to round out to the nearest whole go to McDonalds

WTF is a partial person??????????

Sean -

I said for the calculation purposes, the number is rounded to the nearest whole to prevent the system trying to calculate a "partial person". Thus if you have a 99.5% pilot rating, it will calculate your rating as 100% so that the end caclulation is a whole number and there is not a need to try and rectify it to a whole number post-calculation which could cause issues when then calculating the weight from passenger numbers and such.
