new updates for xxl and sim3dii

[rdklein]

I would like to start a new poll on the upcoming xxl and sim3dii features etc.
just to set priority.

For some of them we need really some manpower, other I can work simultan - but despite that would be good to set some focus on this.

--
xxl will get a major update anyway with some features,
but here some of the todos: that script idea is part of it.
- automatic ship handling for platinum users (auto bunker, auto drive with tugs, auto drive through or not if critical for storm, default speed settings, pop up disable for events,) -- but be aware that a full autoplay is a computer player then, that might be a mix of it.
-some others
strike options for tugs to be payed,
--
ship statistic improvement: distance the ship has gone in past (nm/km),
ow many orders ended with delay (panelty) or how many fright was not picked up (from another thread)
-- minor improvments coming --
ton and teu reservation more precise reservation system.
stock market: to split your owners (companie), go to the stockmarket with your companie.
-- sml features to mix the current map system with the routining system using google traces with high precision (files are ready testing...). This will make it possible to use the north sea canal etc.
--

I'm looking forward to playing it.

Schön zu sehen ... es geht voran!!

Aber schade das man oben nur einen Punkt auswählen kann ...

Eine Bitte hät ich nur. Auch wenn es ab und an nen kleiner Mehraufwand ist ... wäre schön wenn einige Infos hier auch mal wieder in Deutsch auftauchen würden!! Danke.

Ansonsten den zweiten Punkt einfach im Thread nennen.
If you have a 2nd priority just tell it here.

I voted Liner Service. But in my case for container shipping. This has to be incorporated together with 2 other features to make it workable though:
- option of unloading cargo in a third port to load it again on another ship.
- the new freight system with loading and unloading ports calculated somehow from a script.

what I would really like is an easier way to make 2d ports as I cant get my head around the current way, a drag and drop would be ideal

Good Evening
I must admit that it is very exciting with all the changes being read on the forum. What I would like to see is maybe that a ship owner could invest in a warehouse at a port and then have smaller vessels carrying cargo to the W/H port and then have bigger vessels coming along and "clearing" the warehouse to another port (which also has a w/house) and then have feeder vessels again to distribute the"BIG" load to smaller ports.
I think you all have the picture that I have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, i`m think automatic-autoplay is the wrong way = Because that`s MY company and MY ships and i want contolled it myself !

I did not vote for the first feature, because I work on it and I know that it cannot be done in a reasonable time. Some of the proposals like "liner service" or the shuttle system need the new cargo system to work properly.

rdk has introduced many innovations we waited for since long. When all this will come out in time before xmas we will have a reason to be happy.

Hi Wolfgang,

I understand the automatic system as a feature for digging gold. You set the route once (e.g. Luebeck - Helsinki) and it works in the background and shovels money in to your purse while you deal with the major fleet business.

...I miss Sparky in the different threads, i hope of no accident, knows anyone more abaot him ?
