Help with flight maps

[Navigata07]

They all had a purpose.. more income, more xp, better drops in general, more passengers, more max passengers etc.. I figured I wouldn't be doing these runs often so might as well get the most bang for my buck.

Yes the pax bonuses are helpful. I was referring to the spyglass bonuses. Save that for the event flights

 

[Navigata07]

I did a tun to tenochituan yesterday. I only do 1 map per 6 hour dice. Got 68 drops from jets. Not bad as i kept being distracted. Golden dice of course.

How much fuel....do you recall?

How much fuel....do you recall?

800 barrels more or less. 2 planes.

I'd always use sky captain

All f20 I presume?

Make sure you have a stash of weather items. I just activated a map for Chichen Itza and maybe got 4 flights out of it due to weather events. I blew through my fuel and pax counts trying to get a 2nd drop for the spotlight thing, but no go. What a waste of a map. I really hate the weather stuff.

If you have Meteorogical Lab, the weather items is not the big problem.

Thanks, I didn't even know of that building. Building it now. Once I get done with my Thailand alliance flights, I'm going to do some space flights with those planes. That can help me out.

@fertob could you tell me how does it work ? What do you need to produce weather item ?

You need a Resource Base (a helicopter-building, if I'm not mistaken) to produce the items that are required to produce weather items. So you pay coins to produce Microcircuit (10 coins), Gear (15 coins), Varnish (10 coins) and Sensor (27 coints), and for each weather item you need a specific amount of each of these to produce one weather item (e.g., 6 Microcircuits and 5 Gears for one Tesla Lightning Rod, but I believe these amounts vary each time you create a weather item. Not sure about that though)

Build it.

There are 6 weather items: Massive Spotlight, Nano Coating, Ice Detector, Stabilizer, Spiked Tire and Tesla Lightning Rod.

You need items from Resource Base (Helicopter Building) to produce weather items.

thanks a lot for your replies !
So, do I need to fly helicopters ? Or I Just need to build ressource base + meteo lab to produce weather item ?

Just the buildings. NO helicopters needed.

ah great ! really good to know ! I will think about building those buildings !

thanks a lot @Madge59230 !

Speaking about Meteo Lab, don’t forget to build and fully upgrade Weather Station. It will minimize the need of weather items.

Plus gives a Vintage Weathervane every 9 days!

Only if you have the planes to fly the requested destinations. I hardly get past the first 3 days before they ask for a Falcon, Thunderbird or Condor destination, even though I don't own such a plane or even some of the required buildings to fly those destinations

Same problem with Crescnt3. That game is no where near ready to buy or fly thunderbirds or condors, even though it is level 76. But is sure nice on my other 2 games.

 

[Jon Allen]

Yes indeed. That part of the process is really annoying. It should be classified as a bug in my opinion. You should not be stopped from completing the 9 day task by having a destination you cannot fly to.
Has anyone tried reporting it to GI?[/QUOTE]
