The "Gonaives[戈纳伊夫]" City Building Contest

Thanks for that information
Also searched several sites for more data, and apparently, the A380 needs only 2,950m for taking-off
at sea level, but it needs a broader runway, though, between 45-60m, mostly 60m...
Still, it's funny...

Well, I think by using creating a runway orientated to the sea, I got some extra capacity
I mean, the inner bay won't have some container port or similar, that will be done at the south side.
Hence the planes landing on that north-south runway won't be blocking any sea route...

Would you say that 40 million passengers a year were a rational number for my airport?
And what about your own airport?

 

Oddly enough, the newer and larger aircraft than the 747, have more powerful high tech engines allowing for shorter landings/takeoffs.

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport remains the busiest passenger airport in the world for 2014 with 96 million passengers.
Growing up in Atlanta, I used to get in trouble from throwing rocks at airplanes as they flew over my house.

My real world airport today:
Jacksonville International Airport 5,230,988 in 2014.(pretty slack)

My Gonaives project airport, (spoiler) I'm going for more of a freight shipping/distribution hub type thing.

BTW: anybody recognize this log error or the mod it pertains to?

[11:23:22] GRAPH3D mshMesh.cpp ( 193) Error Multi-material mesh detected : C:\Users\PaulChristopher\Documents\3dsMaxDesign\export\r_pv_pavementesp2_07,5x40x60 (currently not supported by engine)

 

I can imagine that it must be hard to live close to one of the busiest airport (regarding movements)
in the world
Found that noise exposure map here:


Every residential communities within the blue area can/should have soundproofing.

Wow, did not know that Jacksonville had ONLY 5.2 million passengers a year.
Doesn't the city have about 820,000 residents?

Edit: no clue about that log error, do you have the whole log?

Yep, 821,784, plus 1 old fart that loves to build cities with xxl.

The said crash happened when working with "small farm road, environment park(dense forest) an the new(awesome) livestock farm w/out buildings".

 

Thanks. I can work with that information now that I know.
XXL (2015)
-Currently I have/am using the:
"cxxl_xln_pjc_15m esplanade roads all_in_one_ v1.0"
-Specifically:
"15M Esplanade Road with Marina 0ption" is the only esplande road used in the city at the moment.

I have a ton of your farm mod built. Don't seem to be any issues so far. That one crash is the only event since I've started this city.

 

Thought my number seemed a little bit low.
Let's don't forget my usually quiet (but not always!) community of Mandarin.

 

There's no forgetting Mandarin - great area. I'm in Deerwood myself. Our airport, btw, has only about 2.6 million annual passenger boardings these days.

 

Ha, two Jacksonvillagers (?) meeting via XLN.
But probably you guys have never even met in real life before?
I mean, Jacksonville is freaking huge.
2,250 square kilometres, damn, New Yorkers would be lucky

 

I've pretty much finished my airport on this map. Just need to figure out what kind of tree park I want near the terminals. Hope you like it. And if anyone can make a quick billboard for the highway entrance to it (with the second picture as a texture face), I'd be very appreciative.

 

Very nice!!! Will be a tough contest about the best airport
But maybe you should try to change some of the industrial estates in the back?
Have a look at some CJs here (and cheating is allowed, you can try to import some
heavy industry by cheating ).

BTw, can we probably raise the limit of photos to maybe 15?
Or do you think that was too much to look at for the jury?
