The sky is the limit, literally! Introducing Airplane Delivery!
Hi everyone, my name is Masterflare, Trikshot360 on Reddit or on Hay Day, LastFPS. I'm fairly new to this community and the forums in general after my lost account was lost. I've come to the forums today to showcase an idea myself and a few other came up with in the /r/HayDay discord chat.
So without further a do... Introducing the Airport Delivery Service!
What is it?
It's basically a new area called the Airport. It's a brand new area, and uses the same expansion materials for new land like your farms and fishing areas already use. It has an airfield and a new type of "shipping house" when you first unlock it. The goal of the shipping house is to fill and send out large bulk orders, which will be accumulated in the shipping house itself. Once you fill your order, your plane is on the move!
The Airplane(s)
There are a few main parts to your brand new Airport. One of those is the Airplane. Stored inside of your hanger, which can be upgraded using materials only found from Airplane missions and doing tasks around your Airport. You hanger, when upgraded, now has the option to hold more/bigger planes. Allowing you to have multiple planes all going to different missions at once. Planes will be locked by either level, or by mission completed barriers(For example, you need to do 9 plane missions before upgrading/buying a new plane!) for X amount of coins, increasing per plane.
The Shipping House
This is the main area where you do your tasks. Orders come and go inside of the main office, and once you pick one up, fill it up with the help of your friends or neighborhood(Friends + Neighborhood can contribute 10% of total needed goods for one item). Remember, these orders are bulk, so that means they are huge! For example, an order can look like: 1000 Wheat, 1000 Corn, 50 brown sugar, and X amount of other items. Depending on the amount/rarity of the items, the reward will be different for the missions given. Now the way these items get stored is the cool part. No more taking up barn space! Drop the items you need directly into the shipping house, and they will stay there until the order is done. Be careful though, dropping the order will make you lose all of the items inside of the shipping house! The level of the shipping house directly effects how big your orders can be, and how often they show up.
The Rewards
Rewards are always a big part of doing missions. Since these orders take up so much time, and effort, the rewards should be pretty worth while. Where it might come short of shop prices, maybe mimicking 80% of the maximum price, the XP reward would be high, rewarding a minimum of 1000 XP per shipment, and 2-5 vouchers depending on order size/speed. Rewards are collected after your Airplane returns to the runway.
Possible Additions
Something that could make this more interesting is having a plane break down, and need repairs in the hanger, meaning it needs time before it gets out again. This can be shortened by your friends by requesting help, or with the use of diamonds. Another possibility is having the ability to fly your townspeople out to places, for high ticket costs. But this would require a new type of a plane, possibly one like a passenger plane, and a cargo plane for cargo.
Feedback is extremely welcome! As this is my first post, I'm still pretty new around here. If you have an idea to add to this, feel free, I hope this can be something amazing to make Hay Day even more exciting than it already is!
Thanks for reading, and have a great day! XD
