alright sooooo basically I was gonna suggest this earlier but I completely forgot and only now have I decided to make this suggestion because of another similar instant.

essentially this is a system that lets you completely refund aircraft however I believe there must be one basic rule, which is the fact that the aircraft must be fresh and never used, at least under 1 minute of use for it to count as refund eligible, however it does not matter if you spent money on maintenance or paint as none of that would be refunded, again, the aircraft must be never used, even if its 100-99% repaired.

pros: You get to get all UP spent and all WP spent on purchasing the aircraft, this means, if you accidentally buy an aircraft when it suddenly goes out of stock, you can easily refund it.

cons: You will not be able to use the aircraft again, and there is a (X amount of time) refund timer for that aircraft (this is up to you aero gods)

I have provided a simple image of what this could look like
(also if you bought it without up you can only refund for wp)

they could possibly code it in but idk

Because I believe how the Aero buying system works is that it just simply checks if you have enough then gives it to you and it doesn’t mark any identification on the aircraft besides the person who purchased it’s name.

idk how code works and shit

But it is a really good idea

#

And it does have it’s practical uses

#

Such as if you accidentally bought something using UP

I accidentally bought the giant 6 engine sea plane that was at Rawaki lol

vapid shell
#

I bought the that big ass plane at experimental works the same time another player did

#

and it didn't show as offsale for me

#

and just today I bought a 124 the moment it restocked

Like trying put it into a cave

#

That I found using my F/A-18

#

But generally it is for intercepting people

lol I remember when my friends and I teamed up and intercepted a streamer with a bunch of sky ship 600s with funny liveries

#

And flew around his area

Every time I join Aeronautica now it is just to do fun things

#

One time it was to fly around the entirety of Aeronautica using a Heli

#

Before the Aesir update

vapid shell
#

damn

#

did you do it?

#

I think I gave up after halfway through Avalon

#

Because I already had es’d one fresh helicopter

#

But I think I will do it again

#

But this time plan a route that goes to all major locations

#

Because the entire idea was to ES as many Lynx’s as possible

#

In Avalon

#

Basically I would ES one then use another

#

Then repeat

This is understandable, however, some people may abuse it for trolling. Like buying a rare vehicle from the dealer to refund WP just at next moment, but the vehicle doesn't appears on the dealer again and no other players can buy it without UP. Well I think there should be more ideas to prevent this (I don't know how other people would think).

#

So if you refund the aircraft then the stock gets increased by 1

calm tree
#

Yeah that may work (I am not a Scripter yet so I wouldn't know how difficult it is to implement this though lol)

rich fulcrum
#

It might work

#

It all really depends on how the entire backend of the game works

calm tree
#

Ye

#

Well Idk if somebody would implement this, then there should be another system like purchase logs or, amount of the UP / WP that players have spent appear on the screen (to notice player if they have spent UP accidentally)

#

It would be a rare case however

#

Instead add a confirmation that you're about to spend UP

#

Someone suggested this iirc

#

Right but

#

may happen so-

#

It is a difficult problem

I didn’t think that would work

It was hidden now it’s viewable

#

Is it unique to you

vapid shell

#

Or is it global?

vapid shell

#

Global

#

If you trade the plane it still has the same ID

#

like 75% of me wants it but 25% says no for some reason

vapid shell
#

again Im just suggesting and seeing what the devs say but I do realize this is very very uh

#

whats the word...

wind urchin
#

bad

vapid shell
#

no

#

complicated

wind urchin
#

I’d say to eliminate the problem that causes this to begin with, make it so that if 2 people try to buy the same plane at the same time when only 1 is stocked, whichever request the server receives last will be met with a “purchase failed” message

#

Or just disallow UP purchases for the first 10 seconds of each dealership restock

You can’t buy “accidentally”anymore

#

Since dealership menu refreshes with dealership itself (god sent gift by Fly)

I like this. But just imagine the bitches that buy planes and screenshot the hangar stats then refund it right away, so they can scam people

#

Free up

#

Yes

#

How system meant to know if you bought for up or not

There can also be people who buy like orange planes in stock just to refund it immediately so nobody can get it.
