some QOL features on Community Radar:
- added airport Tier/Level markers directly to the map
- alongside with neat tooltip showing some details
- non-player airports are marked as such now
- pulsating radar effect for DISCOVERY mode
some QOL features on Community Radar:
Hi ![]()
Added Aircraft Efficiency Lab — a new analytics module showing real aircraft efficiency based on completed flights.
What it does:
Comments:
Compare aircraft based on real operational results:
What it does not doing:
Aircraft Efficiency Lab measures operational efficiency (PAX/hour), not purchase ROI or profitability.
Results are based on completed flight history and are intended to help users better understand aircraft performance before making fleet decisions.
Addition of one extra metric to Aircraft Efficiency Lab
Hi Hill, there is something missing in your app regarding the rental of your own aircraft.
At the moment, you cannot see who has rented your aircraft, so the name of the current renter is missing. The timer is also missing, so you cannot see how long the current renter has had your aircraft.
Thanks for feedback I will check that one perhaps some glitch on your account. Will send you private msg as well.
Edit:
From what i can see its ok - it is showing rentals in ACTIVITY page
with details who did rent that aircraft
When it comes to 2nd one - it updates AIRCRAFT section with
You should not see it different than I do - its your data.
if it does not refresh correctly - perhaps something sits in your browser cache
hit : CTRL + F5 to clear cache and re-load pages (if thats the case).
Once your aircraft has been rented, you no longer know which airport it is located at, who the last renter was, or how long the aircraft has been without one of your licenses.
It could therefore happen that your aircraft ends up at a remote airport somewhere in Africa, without a license and without any active owner or renter.
No, I think the problem is not only about seeing the activity on the map, but also about managing your own fleet.
You should be able to see whether one of your aircraft is currently rented by another player, or if it is just sitting somewhere inactive, without a license and without any activity.
As I said, a timer is also missing. It would help you understand how long your aircraft has been under another player’s control, or how long it has been sitting without one of your licenses.
hmm it kind of does exactly say it:
Your last rented aircraft:

So all data(s) are there unless i am missing something.
when it comes to current status - it does show in aircraft page:
I may think about something like that below - to add “Active Rental” to be visible on main page in popout together with status of licenses and aircrafts.
That can be a little tricky and quite some calculations that will be server/DB heavy…
I will verify it and come back.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing. It would be useful to add a dedicated rental section where you can see who currently has your aircraft, where the aircraft is located, and how long it has been out of your control.
There should also be a timer showing how long the aircraft has been under someone else’s control. The timer would stop as soon as the aircraft comes back under the control of one of your own licenses.
Got it i will investigate what can be done…
… immediately i have some ideas how this could be done (popout called “Rental Details”.
Interesting especially from perspective of someone with large fleet.
Regarding the timer, which is a little more complicated, I was thinking it could work like this:
The timer would start from the moment the aircraft is rented by another user. If that user lands at another airport, the timer would keep running.
If the aircraft is then rented by a second user, and later by a third user, the timer would still continue running without resetting.
Even if the rented aircraft lands at one of your own airports, the timer would continue running.
So, when should the timer stop?
I think the timer should stop when the aircraft is moved using SimFly’s MOVE function, or when the aircraft is flown again using one of your own licenses.
These are the solutions I had in mind. Of course, Hill, if you have other ideas or a better way to manage this system, you could improve my proposal.
I will think of something that will not be to drastic overkill for database. Live tracking of timers for all aircrafts in the system… will be painful for database operations ![]()
My idea is to utilize existing aircraft table - add markers:
when user clicks on that marker for given airplane = it will show all above details.
Today is to late to start it
I will look into it tomorrow onwards. Have a good night ![]()
Example: (draft)
### For ON RENT aircrafts
Show:
* Pilot
* Status: Ariborne
* Departure — date/time
* Destination — ICAO
```### For RECENTLY RENTED
Show:
* Pilot
* Departure — date/time
* Arrival — date/time
* Flight duration
* Aircraft location — ICAO
* Idle at destination — HH:MM
that is the best that could be done there without EXTREMALY long loading time (when system should check if license is there it created to high load on Database - so I tossed that completely it was not worth).
Now you have all details that are actually based on real data and also creating lots of traffic between database and frontend.
ok is good. ![]()
