Airport out of the city doesn't accept anything.

Post by BigBug »

I hope there is already a solution for my problem, and I don’t have to copy my post in suggestions.

It concern Airports and passengers.
In big cities airports are usually build out of the city. In Transport Tycoon, if you build it out of the zone of cover, the airport doesn’t accept passengers, goods, mails. You can still send passengers, by installing a bus station near the airport, and unloading full busses in the airport.
But once again, it’s impossible for airport which doesn’t cover any houses, to accept anything.

Can you please give me any clue to solve this problem?

If there is no solution at this moment, my suggestion is to create special type of busses, attached to airports. So they can assure the link with the city. Also it can be a train (considered as subway, with underground station).

Thank you for your attention , and sorry for my poor English

An airport, as any other station, can only accepts passengers, mail, goods when there are houses that do accept them near enough to be included in the coverage area.

But your idea of shuttle busses, trucks or whatever you require to ring passengers/mail from the city to the airport will work.

AS for goods, it would be a matter of bringing it to the airport and then send it by truck to the city/town.

Tedious, but it works
If you are not ready to work a bit for your ideas, it means they don't count much for you.
OpenTTD and Realism? Well... Here are a few thoughs on the matter.

Thank you for answering.
There are lots of good changes in Open TTD.
In simple, deluxe version there were no money given for transferring goods.
Anyway, now it’s possible, even if you have to have two airports, but it’s possible !
