Feature wishlist for the future

Hello IPACS TEAM

Alright, now that our long-awaited Airbus A350 is finally here and everyone’s super excited, let’s take a quick step back down to earth — even though we love being up in the air (haha, get the joke?😆)

So, about this aircraft — I was completely blown away. What you managed to achieve for a mobile simulator is absolutely incredible. I’m speechless. I truly respect and appreciate your work. You’ve proven to all the other mobile flight sims out there that yes, it is possible — not just on PC.

I know you have a lot of features you’re working hard to implement, and I understand you’re not a huge team, which explains the long wait. But please, from the bottom of my heart, I’m asking you to add the ability to control aircraft weight — like letting us set the amount of fuel, number of passengers, and so on. Also, live weather and the option to start from any gate at the airport would be amazing. These are crucial features that would make a big difference to the game.

Also, there’s still an issue with the Airbus A319 — when you set the thrust to TOGA, the sound doesn’t play at full power, only halfway. And the whole A320 family and Airbus aircraft in general need some sound updates, please. To make it more realistic, you could add that specific sound effect when external power is turned on — the one that’s typical of the A320 — and the fan spooling sounds. Fuel pump sounds would be great too, and it would be perfect if you could also add the cargo door sound. The PTU sound could use a bit of an update too — it’s not the most accurate at the moment. I know it’s a lot, but these are small details that make a huge difference. I can even give you an idea — maybe add these improvements when you start working on the A320NEO Family (haha, got that one too?😂)

And last but not least — ground services. Yes, everyone is excited about new aircraft, but let’s also start adding the basic stuff we actually need. You don’t have to add people or animations (although that would be super cool, not gonna lie), but at least a couple of stairs, a fuel truck, a catering truck, and a cargo belt — that would do the job. Because there’s no point in opening the cargo or cabin doors if we can’t attach anything to them.

Thank you so much for all your hard work, and please take my suggestions into consideration. Smooth flights!
