Anno 2017 one does not simply enter or exit a secure area of a modern (bigger) airport without having their boarding pass or passport either checked manually or automatically.
I present, the manual (left) and automated (right) booths.
Note: in my head I would also see âQueuesâ being separated from the Booths.
Just like with Baggage, I would like to create Queues separately and connect it to 1 or multiple booths.
This way I donât have to create 432 queues, but rather have for example 4 queues that link up to 8 booths.
And in all honesty, I like the art they use at the moment, I assume they made it themselves.
So they are definitely on the right track!
My models dont contain any textures, but with a bit of work I think I can get close to their artwork so you wonât see too much difference, but thatâs something for when they will launch mod support
For now: I donât have any experience with 2D stuff and/or Unity, so no idea how they artwork is created or implemented.
Great idea, but I think the passport check should be optional. If you in Europ for example fly from The Netherlands to Italy, passports donât need to be checked. And sometimes the check is only be done in the country of arrival.
Definitely, tho up to the developers
As for NL to Italy, youâll still have to show your boarding pass (for example at Eindhoven Airport you show your ticket on the automated machine before you get to the security check).
In case of the manual one, you could have that for international flights.
This for example was done in 10/15min, you can keep something as beautiful and detailed as you want (i just make these out of small cubes without looking at real life examples).
Really depends on how much time you want to invest.
Also not. Cause after you embarking (maybe in the Netherlands) to the EU-Schengen area, from that point, when you travel in the Schengen area you donât need your passport.
This is absolutely wonderful. Should be in game sooner or later.
Devs, please mark both the idea and the person that came up with that idea, as he may well be a very skilled addition to your team!
Haha thanks, I appreciate the kind comment.
Iâm sure the dev team has it all covered just fine.
One thing I did notice during the design of all these parts:
The current vanilla stuff will look weird if you design them in 3D to be exactly the same as what you see in game.
A quick example is this coke vending machine.
Which one do you like better in the left corner view.
And which one looks better in the bottom right view.
Love the idea. Iâm not to worried about the queues. Pastport control is often the fasted part of an airport, especialy automated ones. Altough I think the automated ones would need another layer of procurement before they can be unlocked.
