Will having to be delayed because of traffic have an effect on your final score? And what about mid-air collisions, will they be treated as a
normal ground crash? Will Ground traffic affect your score as well?
Will delays affect your score? Yes, if you choose that option. Both air and ground traffic will affect your score. When you board your PAX,
you are given the option to enter both a Destination airport and an Arrival time. If you arrive within 3% (total flight time in minutes) of your
specified time of arrival, you get a bonus. If you arrive within 12% you don't get penalized. However, if you arrive outside of that 12% of
flight time in minutes window, you get penalized (yes, even if you are ahead of schedule).
What about mid-air collisions? That depends on your Flight Simulator settings. Dan will correct me if I'm wrong on this one because I
haven't tested this scenario but if your settings a on crash and you crash (wether it be a building, a plane or a runway) FsP will detect it an
your flight will be affected accordingly. Depending on the nature of the crash, you might have minor damage and injuries or you could
have a totally destroyed planed with everybody on board killed (yes, even your pilot).
Will ground traffic affect your score? Yes, if you taxi too fast, passengers panic and if you it another airplane or building, you crash!
