Fuel Cost is added as income instead of substracted - AltairZQ - 16-07-2005

Lood at this report:

Financial Report:

Ticket Income: +70€ (85 Nm)
Cargo Income: +5€ (39 lbs)
Services Income: +0€ (0 sandwich 0 hot food 0 drink)
Services Cost: -0€ (41% quality)
Fuel Cost: --190€ (-45 gal 100LL)
Airport Taxes: -2€ (Small Aircraft)
Insurance Costs: -4€ (5.32% rate)
Total Real Income: 261€
Total Sim Income: 13'081€ (real x50)


You see Fuel Cost has two substract signs "--" and it seems it's being considered as an income. Also something is wrong in that line,
it's not aligned with other prices when I paste it, although it looks ok in FsP report. (edit: I see now that prices are not aligned in the post, but they are aligned when I edit the post, all except Fuel Cost)

I made the calculations by hand and counting the Fuel Cost as income I get 259€ so it doesn't match the report exactly but almost. Taking
the Fuel as a cost, I would have lost 121€ (maybe where is the problem, getting a negative result?).

note: fuel cost is so high because of using max throttle almost all the time to get on schedule with a not so-well designed flight plan for a
Cessna.

True the tanks are almost full. Guess there is something wrong with this airport, no refuel area where I taxied and parked.

Ok, mental note "avoid refuel areas" Drink

Those refuel area's have been in Flightsim since version 5, and probably even before that. Friend

They started as yellow box's on the ground at airports, and had a little red gas pump. I rememberd always hating it that in FSFW95, some of the AI
traffic (crappy MDL's that flew in circles around the airport) would get fuel truck service, and I had to taxi. In todays game they are the blue and
white gas pumps seen around airports. They are also marked with a yellow and red box on FSNAV. Their sole purpose is to fill your tanks when you taxi
close enough to them.
