Even if it’s very broad, it would add to the immersion, and make your choice more important. I’m sure some simple, general rules can be applied that certain coordinates will have better or worse weather, and that certain locations will either be more tourist focussed or more business focussed. But it does make you feel more immersed, at least if you go along with it. You can also choose a location, which doesn’t seem to affect gameplay. Ok, that doesn’t sound great but with a custom paint tool or image importer that would be great! I don’t even think you can name the airport in SA. You can name yourself, name your airport, and pick a (limited) appearance, from a collection of creepy faces.
#How to add custom airlines to simairport Pc#
A big example is the tablet-style user interface, which tries to make you feel like you are using a professional application or running a serious simulation rather than a much nicer, and more streamlined, PC game-style user interface. Or, the two should be called “Interior” and “Exterior”, which might be an even better way of doing it.Īdmittedly, the immersion ACEO tries to offer can sometimes be at its detriment. In SA, the control tower and aircraft gates should probably be under construction and not objects.
Regardless, the large number of choices outweigh that.
SA does lack (or at least I think it lacks) colour customization for objects.
Overall, neither is really that more or less restrictive than the other.ģ. For gameplay/progression, ACEO is a bit better. Would have been nice to have even more airport variations, which I discussed in an earlier blog post.įor customization and design, SA is better. It reminds me of building a small, simple convenience store in Another Brick in the Mall, and adding more complex stores as time goes on, rather than starting with the biggest. These give the airport a much greater sense of progression, and allow you to build a simple grass airport on the cheap before moving on. With the one way roads, you can also build roundabouts, and add decorations in the middle! Decorations is something that SA has plenty of, which is what would give SA the lead.īut then, ACEO also gives you varying taxiways and runways, such as the grass ones. This would put ACEO at the top however, you can get around this in SA by zoning a drop off point away from the main road, painting it to look like the concrete bus stop like in ACEO, and drawing two one-way roads next to each other in opposite directions to make your own 2-way roads. You can even place these at the start without any slow research! There’s also service roads and service gates, a nice addition for the behind the scenes areas. I like the addition of bus stops, construction drop off, parking, and 2-way roads that can be placed pretty much anywhere in ACEO as actual props. Terminal Exterior Construction – Complicated Draw Both have regular updates, devblogs, forum interaction, and even the odd vlog.Ģ. Minus the issue I have with the walls of text and massive paragraphs that are in the Airport CEO devblogs, both developers do offer good communication with their buyers. This isn’t like a comparison between Planet Coaster and Rollercoaster Tycoon World! The choice may come down to nitpicking more than anything. Sim Airport has been in development for a further 6 months than Airport CEO, so keep that in mind as well.Īlso, note that both games have very similar goals and design choices, and neither is really that much less quality than the other. They allow you to build and manage an airport, are in early access, and are being developed by two small indie studios.īecause both games are in early access, it is important to take that into consideration when determining the “value” of each game. The niche war that 10 people have been waiting to hear about!īoth are recent airport simulation/tycoon games that are vaguely inspired by Prison Architect.
