I’d love to have a Bush Trip Editor, that exports a mod folder (to put into the community folder), so that the trip can be shared with the community.
I’d GUESS it would be rather simple, as the only required inputs would be the plane, weather, time and starting point for the leg (that’s basically the same influts as for a free flight on the world map), alongside with the NAVLog (Heading, time for heading and free text for the visual orientation tasks) and the destination runway for successfully completing the leg.
I’m sure many interesting and fun bush trips would come out of the community very quickly and would be great for people complaining about the lack of predesigned “missions”, improving this topic in a very efficient way.
Hi, guys! Well, for the very first time, I am REALLY enthusiastic about any flight sim. Finally, I can do what I‘ve always wanted: REAL VFR. “Sucking the marrow” out of this planet’s incredible geography. I very very soon discovered that the “bush trips” are THE great way to do so. I still have a few more days to finish them but I am really hoping there’ll be more.
Also, because they so elegantly leave anything by the wayside that still is suboptimal with the sim, ATC, for example.
I would also strongly suggest a way for users to create and share their own, a wonderful way to show to the world of simmers their region and country.
Very good idea sharing trips.
Hey guys, I got this idea:
We have bush trips / live events.
What if people would be able to make 'em themselves and enable a rating system vom 0,1-10
and a filtering system (Day/night/anything, length up to X nm / flight time between this and that etc.)… so that people who know the nicest places in the world can lead those who DON’T know many (like me) to them?
I think it’ll dramatically up the user activity since we a) gather useful information and b) get more people to fly the highly ranked routes?
What do you guys think?
Best Regards
Steffo
What I’m wanting the ability to do is create something akin to the bush trip missions. Where thr user can plan a trip with multiple legs and have each leg be a separate flight plan. Ie when you land the leg is considered completed and us logged as a leg rather than trip and the game does not prompt you to go to the main screen. I know you can add waypoints into a flight plan, but it would be nice to have thr ability to fly legs of a trip without having to fight with a g1000 and worry about deleting the flight plan etc. This would also make it possible for users to create sight seeing trips etc. My concern is really to capture the narrative that I’m on a trip. Realistically. I want to be able to walk away from the sim and come back and feel like its the same plane as I left it thr night before and not the start of a new trip from whatever airport I’m at. Last night I flew down the eastern coast of Australia on the way to Tanzania. I had to land due to some weather at an uncontrolled airport for fuel and safety. I saved the game, but I think tonight when I load up the game will put me back in the same storm at the instant I left, and wouldn’t a real pilot wait for weather to pass?
