Roadmap - Long Term Plan

Billing system update, and other minor updates

This round of updates is again mainly focused on backend updates and migrating certain key components to the AirwaySim 2.0 system.

New features

  • Added a new "Delete Alliance" functionality to the Alliance Control Panel. This function is visible / available if you are the last remaining member in an alliance. (n.b. the alliance is still automatically closed if the last managing member closes his airline - each alliance must have at least one managing member at all times!)

  • Alliance closure related features upgraded to v.2.0 standard (completely new code). No visible changes to users.

  • Added real-world alliance name list to the blocked airline/alliance names database.

  • The game subscription billing module is upgraded to v.2.0 with a new code and new look for the e-mail notifications. The billing happens now every day at 12.00 UTC.

Improvements

  • Some technical streamlining to the new alliance features. No visible changes to users.

  • More technical tuning to the new backend processes. No visible changes to users.

  • Technical upgrade to the database structure of the airports infrastructure expansion system. No visible changes to users.

  • Fully migrated all remaining parts of handling logos, liveries and icons of airlines and alliances to the new system also in the old UI pages. No visible changes to users.

Fixes

  • Tooltip popups were too eager to open if there were many on the same page and mouse was moved rapidly over many of them.

  • Tooltip popup at scheduling page on mobile did not respect display boundaries.
