ATC-pie has been incremented to r8, a new release featuring an '''en-route control mode'''. It allows to play without a base airport, and to centre the radar anywhere on Earth, i.e. to detach it from any available airport position. The good news is that it supports solo games as well, which brings a new type of fun into the program. In solo CTR mode, aircraft transit your airspace following assigned routes. Your job is to reassign levels, routing points, etc. to have aircraft fly across safely until handover to the neighbouring CTR. | |||

'''ATC-pie is one year old!''' On January 15 last year, the initial beta version was released and put to real game testing. On February 1, the first version (r1) was out, initiating the string of improvements that took place until today. This is certainly a time for the developer to thank all users who have tried or adopted it and those who have helped to improve it. Perhaps also an occasion for happy players to wrap up a nice present for it in the form of a kind review? ;-) | |||
