Why does every bag get destroyed?

[EvanTheCEO]

Why does almost every single piece of baggage get destroyed when taken through screening? Even with fully 100% energy security guards (which pretty much never happens) it still only lets like 2 bags through per flight. I think it is very rare for a bag to get destroyed before being loaded, but why does it happen so much? It is really annoying seeing so many people check bags but then on the aircraft it says “Baggage loading completed” with 0 bags.

So what I’m saying is, the game should not have so many bags be dangerous and get destroyed.

Very few of my bags are destroyed. Perhaps one in 40.

Can you provide a screen shot?

[Rubble]

That as you know does not sound quite right. Is this on every flight? Does it happen after a S&RL? Assuming noting is out of the ordinary, and I know you have more than not, got it set up correct, if it still happens after seeing the setup, sounds like a bug report candidate.

I’ve experienced this as well, but only with small aircraft. There are far less baggage being loaded onto aircraft compared to baggage being offloaded the airplanes.

I think we need a few screens of your baggage system layout, this is not an issue I’m currently seeing in the backlog.

[Zolton]

I agree. I feel like so many bags get destroyed!!!

[EvanTheCEO]

Hmm now I feel like my baggage system is wrong.

Have bags go through level 1 scanner first, have rejected bags from that scanner go through all 5 specific scanners in series. Have the rejected bags each of the specific scanners go through a manual inspection. Have the reject from that manual inspection go to the destroyer.

I’ve even added a second manual inspection on both the reject and accept conveyors after the manual station just in case my manual scanner security officer was having an off day. Make sure your security officers are max trained and fire any that don’t get a full green bar when fully trained.

It’s a little peculiar. An aircraft carrying nineteen people had zero luggage loaded. However, a baggage truck came to the aircraft anyways.

My baggage setup is correct (at least I believe it is) and my security are at maximum efficiency even at the end of their shift.

I observed that it took about ten dangerous bags for one bag to be considered safe. All my check-ins are automated, with the chute opening up at the baggage drop-off but no bags being dropped off. It seems very few people have safe baggage.

With sixteen small stands, this is the amount of baggage at the baggage bay servicing the entire airport.

I haven’t seen this in medium aircraft. Maybe the dangerous bag ratio can be decreased or passengers will bring more baggage? Should I file a bug report? @EvanTheCEO Did you experience something similar to this?

[Blackout]

Imagine how much hijackings you would have if you had not had security.

[TheAviator]

Actually, if I didn’t have security, the aircrafts would not have been able to takeoff from being overweight with illegal baggage! And I would be fined half a million per day!

[EvanTheCEO]

Yes that is exactly what happens to me

[Blackout]

How much do you make per day in this game? I make about 500,000. LOL

[TheAviator]

I make about the same in profit, yes. The government would steal all my money!

EDIT: Turns out democracies oppress the populace financially!

@Olof Could this be tweaked perhaps in the next alpha, or is this not intentional?
