API

[vestal breach]

can I get API so I can make a bot? if so where or how to contact the person

[timber mirage]

API access was discontinued quite a while ago. Trophy Support can explain/ elaborate.

[vestal breach]

so I can't create bots?

[timber mirage]

There are some bot peeps around here. Maybe they will assist you.

[vestal breach]

I found in the files the names of the airports, their locations, etc. Do you know if I can find data somewhere on the number of passengers in all the hubs so I could add it to Excel?

I only need passenger data

[timber mirage]

There are various route bots already.

[vestal breach]

I understand you, but I have a project that will do it better for me and I only need to know where to find the file with the data on how many passengers are in the hub

[timber mirage]

Uncle @latent kraken ken you scheck zis out and gib ze guy some helps?

[latent kraken]

I'm not your uncle, my son. 😂

I'll take a look!

[timber mirage]

Me no no Botpro. 😂

[vestal breach]

a file with data on the number of passengers in each hub

[latent kraken]

Then I'll take care of your question.

Task 1: Very simple:
Google
Search for "am4 bot discord"
=> 1, result: cathaypacific8747/am4.
What a miracle we are presented with. The bot, this Discord!

Task 2: Search the directories. Somewhere you will find .parquet files.

That's right, that's the data you need.

Task 3: Convert data for your own purposes.

Question: Why develop a new bot? Ask the developer if you can help.

[latent kraken]

It doesn't work like that. There are about 3907 airports and from each airport there are routes with defined demands.
So you have a triangular matrix with
3907 departures and 3906 destinations behind which the demands Y, J, F are.
So a total of 7,630,371 routes!
Then you have to take into account runway lengths, the aircraft and their speeds, etc.

[vestal breach]

I have enough computing power to make my project work

[latent kraken]

Then ask the developer of the bot if you can support him.

Oh @timber mirage I still have to write to the developer that the bot in realism mode doesn't show routes that are possible in the game. Thanks for the reminder.

[timber mirage]

I tried but I run out of patience with this stuff and selectively forget things.

Fact is that rwy-reqs do not apply to RM planes operated out of any hub, regardless of rwy length.

so I can fly a B748 out of a grass field with 2000ft as long as the destination has 10250ft.

[latent kraken]

That's exactly the bug right now. The bot won't generate routes for HIR when playing Realism!

[timber mirage]

Additionally, I can buy and base a plane to any owned hub, operate it out of that hub, but never ferry it back there due to rwy req.

That... is bass ackwards

[latent kraken]

You can do a ferry flight.

I'm pretty sure but not a normal route.

[timber mirage]

Unable to ferry a A380 into my base due to RWY requirement. Despite the fact that the aircraft was delivered there, ferried to another hub but not able to return

[vestal breach]

So how do I find the passenger data file in each hub?

[terse drum]

you can host the discord bot and/or a web api yourself, the detailed documentation to set it up can be found here:
https://cathaypacific8747.github.io/am4/development/web-api/

let me know if you have any other questions
