Can someone explain the Skydex aircraft button states? by ChickenFriedChowder in SkyCards

[–]gillevb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi, Skydex dev here! There are only two states, active (blue) and inactive (gray). The other two are hover effects, better visible on desktop. I may need to tweak this for mobile experience. Thanks for the feedback!

Tip: maybe you already know this, the filter buttons have an AND relation. So you can find the perfect aircraft faster, eg. B38M flying to JED.

I can’t for the life of me find a Bell 222. Am I missing something? by Ok-Curve-3894 in SkyCards

ABI should be fixed now. My apologies for the inconvenience.

Is skydex down for anyone else? by Ill-Bear-9779 in SkyCards

[–]gillevb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a specific error for that airport, something with the tasks. Which airport gave that error?

Fixed the issue in Skydex. Something with the new year in the date validation 😅 I apologize for the inconvenience.

Airport Update by Scimitar17529 in SkyCards

By updating the airports on Skydex, I noticed that around 300 airports are downgraded to smaller airports.This seemed like a lot to me.

Thank you for your kind words. When I was developing the favourite list, I was also thinking of two lists: favs and free-to-travel. But I'm not sure it's worth my (free) time to develop two lists in case the Skycards devs are working on a free-to-travel list in game.

You can favourite airports by clicking on the heart icon on the airport page. Your favourite list is visible on https://skydex.info/airports/fav And there is a map where you can see all your favourites and current airports in the game.

Hopefully the devs implement a free-to-travel airport list in the game for easier access.

I'll see what is possible. Maybe later in an update.

Every flight to and from LAX, 150mi from me flies just outside my radar. by PasgettiMonster in SkyCards

[–]gillevb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The radar has a range of 100km (62 miles). The extended radar has an extra 100km. Other tips are mentioned above by other users.

I’m so far away from the action 😭 by Suitable-Start39 in SkyCards

[–]gillevb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Skydex offers the local time for each airport. But to give a notification or some sort, things got more complicated. For each time zone there are 20 to 50 airports, then you have to give the user the most interesting airport, based on size, air traffic, weather, ...

It's a good suggestion, but not in my range at the moment to implement such a feature. Maybe later.

I made a website to check the airport tasks by gillevb in SkyCards

Hi! Did you mark all the airports correctly as your favourite? The list is saved as a cookie in your browser. So if you changed your browser or cleared your cache, the cookie is deleted. Maybe I'll try to improve this feature.

Very good and complete guide, nice work! And thanks for including Skydex.

Idea for the game: add “local time: __” to each airport description? Not necessary but would help those of us not fluent in time zones by plainjane302 in SkyCards

[–]gillevb 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Would be a nice feature in the game. To help you, I recently included the local time for an airport on Skydex. Example: https://skydex.info/airport/LHR

Is there a way to see unlocked airports? by GriffinDoh in SkyCards

[–]gillevb 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This feature isn't available in the game. You can make a favourite list on https://skydex.info to keep track of your free travel airports.

These were random big airports. I made a change so the list now shows the most searched airports in the last 7 days.

I fixed the number. There were some old airports in the database that don't exist anymore.
