Beta 1.5 with optimized route finding algorithm and optimization available now!

Fly Corp

Develop your own transport network in different regions and cities: open new routes, buy and upgrade new planes, and increase airport capacity!

As some of you may have noticed during long game sessions, sometimes passengers fly with transfers using less than optimal routes. This was the case - route finding in complex situations, when there are many open cities and connections between them, gave approximate, close to optimal routes. We have been trying to improve the route finding algorithm for a long time to increase its accuracy and performance. This is really a non-trivial task. And now, finally, we are ready to present an improved version for your judgment. [b]What changes should you notice?[/b] As noted above - look at complex situations, when there are a lot of routes between cities. [b]Now passengers should choose the most optimal possible route[/b] for transfers from the departure city to the final destination city. At the same time, [b]performance should improve[/b]. Therefore, if you have experienced problems with the game slowing down earlier, please share how much better it has become for you.

We set a limit of 100 cities per territory and a minimum distance of 100 kilometers between cities for [i][b]new[/b][/i] scenarios created in the scenario editor. Please note that the [i][b]new limits will not affect old scenarios created on previous versions of the game.[/b][/i] [b]How to join the beta?[/b] [b]We are starting testing in a closed branch of Steam (Windows version only!).[/b] To switch to the testing branch on Steam, find the game in your library, right-click and select "Properties" from the context menu. There, go to the "Betas" tab and enter the code "flycorppublictest". After that, you will be able to switch to the closed test branch public_test in the list above. [b]Warning![/b] Do not forget to switch back to the default branch after you finish exploring the test branch, otherwise you will not receive game updates in the future, which are published in the general branch. As always, we are looking forward to your feedback! Enjoy your flights!✈️ As always, we invite you to our Discord server to discuss the newest Beta - http://discord.gg/invite/9eHyYap and to subscribe to our page on Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/developer/kishmish.
