First and foremost I apologize if this idea has been posted before but I have searched and could not find a similar topic. If in case I missed it feel free to close.
Background
We are all here for one if not many reasons but its safe to say we love flying (airplanes) for sure. I have been into flying simulators since I was a kid (mostly combat) and lately into civil or airlines flying simulators.
Issues
When Im flying mid, long and ultra long routes here are some of my issues:
- im playing but im doing nothing
- Waiting
- App crashed
- Disconnects
Proposed solution
āCruise Simulated Timeā
How it works
We do anything normal start from gate, taxi, take off and climb once weāre in cruise altitude and properly configured we can press the simulated time button (2x, 4x or 10x of speed). Once weāre near ToD simulated time will automatically disabled and weāre back into the part that we love (descent, approach land etc)
Possible issue with this idea
While this might not for everyone we can open a new server specifically for this simulated time other rules and restrictions still apply as in the current live servers or we can enable this on live servers with additional stats or indicators that we are time simulated.
To prevent mid air collissions simulated time will automatically disabled if the aircraft are in close proximity of another aircraft and have high chance of collision. (We are expected to be present and in control during the entire flight in cruise simulated time). Or we can be in tunnel of our own time apart from the rest of the traffics.
