Guests get paid for visits, their PIP hatches, and the tower knows where the action is
Earlier today guests started earning XP, ranks and achievements on every catch. Three more pieces follow the same idea: whatever you do in Skydex should pay off straight away, account or not.
Visits and bridges. Two minutes low over an airport, three minutes over a city, a pass under a bridge. Until now a guest got a sign-in window for these instead of a reward. Now the reward comes first, with the same XP, Feathers and visit tiers an account gets, and the usual rank-up when it lands. Mayor, captain and governor seats still need an account, because they carry your name on the place page. When you sign in, every visit you made as a guest is recorded on your account, so your airports and cities are there from day one.
Your PIP egg. Every new pilot finds an egg. You warm it with a catch, and it hatches the next day. Guests could warm it but never hatch it, which made it a promise without an ending. From today the egg hatches for guests too, in the same browser, and you can give your PIP a name. Signing in moves it to your account, already hatched and with its name, so it flies with you on any device.
Where the action is. Some places are quiet: no ships in range, no aircraft over your head. After a minute of that, Leo in the tower now tells you which place on our network is the busiest right now, something like «Hamburg Airport: 30 ships and 5 planes», and the line has a Fly there button. The map radar does the same after an empty scan. The list is counted once a minute from the ships and aircraft our receivers hear, so it follows the real traffic.
Open skydex.online and take off. If your corner of the world is quiet, the tower will send you somewhere that isn't. Earlier posts: Fly without an account and still earn everything and A radar you can find.
