Airport CEO Alpha 36 released (The Emergency Update)

Hey parillos,
thanks a lot for your explanation. I intalled ACEO via Steam and unfortunally I couldn´t find the JSON, or even the “Saves” folder.
I found “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Airport CEO\Airport CEO_Data\DataFiles” and then a GameSetting.JSON, but the content is only:

“{“edgeScroll”:false,“panSpeed”:0.9718734622001648,“zoomSpeed”:0.9718745946884155,“middleMousePanning”:true,“autoSave”:false,“amPM”:false,“unitSystem”:0,“passengerModifierValue”:0.7796869277954102,“mute”:false,“volume”:0.47998395562171938,“enableVsync”:false,“enableTreeAnimations”:true,“activatedMods”:[“9a7103e1-2042-47a6-af95-abfb171d98fe”,“46ec5158-8cbe-4ad5-a40e-218bc70f5396”]}”

Does anyone know where I can find the saves? Or where I can look up?
Thanks in advance!

Your save folder should be in a path similar to this

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apoapsis Studios\Airport CEO

USERNAME is specific to your PC. It is usually the name of the system user account you use.

Thank you for the reply, but I know all of this, which is why I’m asking this question towards the devs. As I said, I’m not asking about frequencies, but how the emergencies themselves are selected.

I’ve been away from the game for a couple of weeks or so, came back to find A36.3-5 on the default branch. Started a new airport, been handling emergencies like a champ, after battling throught the first two which came before all the facilities were built :frowning_face:

Moving on, I’m now stymied because whatever I do, the Cafe and Shop R&D projects are greyed out. I’ve hired a Procurement Officer per the tutorial, but still can’t start the projects.

Also, it’s difficult to deal with GA emergencies as there is no way to reserve a small GA stand for emergencies (as far as I can see). The open ones fill up as fast as they empty, and if the emergency goes to a briefly vacant one, I get a GA plane stuck at the end of the runway complaining that it’s allocated stand is not free. I tried building a spare GA stand and keeping it closed for emergencies, but once the emergency has cleared the stand and I rush to close it, an incoming GA flight has already been assigned to it, and so it goes on…

I really guess we might need stands to be labled ‘for emergencies only’ and have the game reserve and direct the planes to them. So basically spoken, in case of emergency the game looks for a reserved stand and if none is available it takes a normal one.

Reading about everyone having so many emergencies i’ve been playing on my old airport, just updated it. Completed the project built the facilities, haven’t had a single thing happening yet. I think i missed something or it’s a bug. What should i check?

Do you have a Strategy Director though? Those two are greyed out unless you have the strat. director.

You’d think that after 700+ hours I’d remember how to do these things… Yes, a Procurement Director, but no Strategy Director…

Serves me right for having some time off…

Do I have to cover the whole RWs with BSPDs? Or is it enough to cover the touch down zones?
