Infinite Money in Sandbox Mode

I have a feeling this has already been talked about. (Sorry in advance)

I would love the developers to add Infinite Money to sandbox mode, as it would allow me to build a huge airport at my will without having to worry about money.

Hey there,

There already is a sandbox mode in the game, when you start a new game you just check the sandbox checkbox. Your funds will still go down as you spend money but there is no limit to how far you can go in the red. You can also edit the amount of money you have in the savegame file, you can find your saves in:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apoapsis Studios\Airport CEO\Saves\YOURSAVE.
Search for funds in GameData.json and edit the amount. (On your own risk :slight_smile: )

Thanks so much for the info :smiley:

Sure, no problem!

ā€œGameData.json and edit the amountā€

How?

Open it with notepad, use ctrl + f , in the searchbar look for ā€˜funds’ . Then press the arrows until you found the one with numbers behind. Be sure to make a backup first

THAAAAANKS!!! This little trick saved my great project… Now I can create the project of my dreams, with great joy and tranquility, watching it grow.

With this simple trick, I can say: ā€œWell, I have a check to invest ā€¦ā€ lol

Obviously, I made a backup of the original file just in case.

Very good weekend for you!

Pro tip;

Save an empty airfield, then edit the amount, then open it up again, safe it under a new name.

If you start an airport next week, next year, etc, just open up the old edited save and restart.

That’s exactly what I did. Except I don’t edit the amount :grin: or sandbox :open_mouth:

I tried deleting a whole airfield while I had 100 mil in cash;

  • You cannot delete stands/runways with flights on it
  • It is impossible to delete airline contracts, when flight are scheduled.
  • On high speed mode, with the airfield closed, and all runways closed, with auto SEND AWAY, flights still will queue up for your airfield.
  • It is horrible to delete flights (so you can delete contracts)
  • When deleting a Terminal building, everything you did build inside, is still there (benches, etc).
  • You cannot de-zone multiple zone types, you have to do it one by one. (all zoning should dissapear on terminal razing).
  • You have to delete rooms one by one.

That is why I went the other way around.

Agree with all of the above. Though I have lately found you can close a stand which will cancel all of the flights assigned to that stand.

Lol, missed that in the change notes.
