First off I enjoy these debates. We all remain level headed...
Secondly what do I define as a cheat in FsP? This is a tough one, but I define a cheat as something that is out of the confines of what you
can legitimately do in FsP because in FsP, you can, if so desired, make all your planes VIP by editing the .ini payload files that you are
entitied to edit. You can start off with a LOT of money or very little. You can have a very high modifier, or a very low one. You can buy, repair,
and sell planes for profit, and occasionally find planes that are cheap and immediately sell them without doing the maintenance for
some profit, because this is something that FsP does not stop you from doing. You can turn off penalties, you can fly while not at your
computer, you can basically do what you want in FsP that FsP allows you, if thats what will make FsP enjoyable to you.
A cheat might be hacking into FsP that most people might have no clue on how to do, and do something that is not coded into FsP, but
then again, thats up to Dan.
What you may never choose to do, someone else may do.
As for not liking the word cheat, I dont mind the word cheat, but I more define the word in context of cheating promotes you and damages
others. In the case of FsP, it is only a cheat IF it is something that benefits you and does something that you would not otherwise do.
And lastly, since you know programming and such, you know as well as I do, that if you know anything about editing the aircraft.cfg file in
certain areas, you can definitely give yourself a number of self imposed cheats that would allow you to get ahead of yourself in FsP.
So with that, good debate again
