Addition of hubs in automatic promotions

Post by alanchalevrai » Thu Dec 22, 2022 3:33 am

Hello Joe. We think it would be interesting to be able to automatically assign certain hubs during pilot promotions.

Currently we are forced to do it manually with each new promotion. And as we have a lot of pilots it takes a long time to do it.

What do you think of this idea ? Thank you

I am not sure what your asking, while in a rank you can specify which airport you have to return to for promotions, and fleets can have specific airports as there headquarters, we don't really have a special concept of 'hub',

Sorry I use Google translate to write. I try to explain. We would like to be able to assign the hubs in the same way as the assignment of plane in each promotion. For example, a pilot who passes a level, is also assigned somme hubs . I don't know if it's very clear. The site does not work today, i'm cannot take a screenshot to illustrate my remarks.

To go further in the explanation. We have a career system and some hubs have difficult lines that we want to assign depending on the rank in the company. Without having to do it manually for each pilot and each new promotion which gives him access to new hubs

Are you asking for rules that would allow you to restrict which airports a pilot can use based on there rank?

I take this opportunity to ask another question. When I create a new HUB, I have to assign them to each driver, one by one.
Is there a way to assign them to multiple pilot at the same time ?

You keep saying 'assign to hub' but there are no hubs. 'Hub' is a concept we don't support. Do you mean fleet?

I don't think I want to start assigning airports by rank or fleet, I think the complexity is too much. You can already limit routes to aircraft of a fleet and you can limit use of fleet aircraft to a rank and that should be enough.

Being able to bulk assign pilots to a fleet is not a bad idea and I will look into that.

Yes it is indeed fleet that I meant. I understand that it can be complex. This is because we have tough fleet bush trips that we manually assign to pilots when they reach a certain rank. And since we have more than 100 pilots, it takes time to follow and assign :roll: . Anyway, thanks for the feedback Joe. :wink:

I have added a simple page to be able to bulk assign pilots to a fleet. If you go to the fleet page there is now a link to 'Assign Pilots' in the management options.
