Weekly Update (2017-05-04): Liam

This Week

The main advance I made this week was departures. Airplanes start on the runway, accelerate, and then move into the flying state. Right now this happens randomly, but I plan to add a queueing system later.

I also made several minor improvements to gameplay, including:
  • Changing the ascent and descent rate to make it more reasonable
  • Adding a handoff button for flyovers and departures (not yet functional)
  • Removing planes that have landed
  • Added descent during landing (not yet fully implemented)
  • Added a "cancel" button for landing airplanes
Here's a screenshot of a departure on the runway and the new cancel button:

Tasks completed:

  • Implement departures
  • Add landing capabilities

Next Week

Now that we've migrated to a new task list, I plan to add functionality for the handoff button and descent during landing (properly).

Asana tasks to complete:

  • Make final map
  • Implement flyover & departure targets
  • Fix altitude implementation
