That's what I have so far as far as gate management goes. I still need to implement renewal/cancellation of gate leases. "Status" will indicate whether the gate is currently in-use, and "Utilization" will indicate the % of usage for each gate, both individually (2nd screenshot) and for the airport as a whole (1st screenshot). i.e. what percent of the time is the gate in-use, versus not in-use. 


Let me know if you think of anything that could be added to these pages.

Clean and simple I like it, though the rest test will be in play Smile

So basically when a plane lands, it checks the available gates at the airport. If there is a dedicated gate available, it will always use that before going to a shared gate. If there are no gates available, it lands and then a warning appears on the gate management page telling you that you have more planes on the ground than you do gates. Eventually there will be financial and reputation penalties when that happens, but for now it's just a visible warning.

How are we going to balance gate numbers vs airlines in the game?

Well there's an unlimited amount of gates available to lease at each airport so it won't be an issue.

The only thing is that airlines will not go to alternate airports. The number of gates should be huge but not unlimited.

This looks great! Just one thing, and its sort of a nitpick, but... should 'shared' and 'dedicated' be capitalized?

Well I don't want limited gate quantity to be the reason that airlines have to expand to other airports. I want to accomplish that with the supply/demand model.

Yeah. It'll be fixed before public beta.
