Problem: hour Tick check: 0900 GMT Air sortie, the whole world. 1600 GMT second Air sortie, the world over. 2300 GMT third air sortie, the world over. This happens because: its an easier to code Or the code running sorties every hour somewhere in the world takes up too much resources Or its too hard to code.
Assumption; its easier to code because it would tie up resources anyway. Nothing is too hard to code, just have to find the sweet spot. Easier to code is also cheaper.
1. First proposal: Hour tick by province - sea zone not universal, checks for 0900, 1600, 2300 if true, then checks for aircraft assigned to sortie, then executes. Resource Expensive because every province, sea zone has to run tick checks.
2. second proposal: Air engine created checks each air unit for time and sortie information, runs if true in province sea zone assigned to sortie. less resource expensive but
First Proposal: Pros: easier to implement than two. Con: Resource expensive
Second proposal Pros solves problem and uses less resources. Cons expensive to code.
Solution, hire more of us coders
