The
wind rose indicates the effecting wind in the current altitude.
The
altimeter shows the height in which you fly.
The
variometer indicates the rising or sinking of the balloon. 0 means
that you are keeping your altitude, 1 or -1 means slow rising or sinking,
3 or -3 indicates quick rising or sinking.
The
burner is operated by clicking. It heats up the air inside the envelope
and the balloon rises.
By clicking on
Abwurf Lose you can drop a ticket. This only works in panorama
view mode.
Caution: To avoid a collision with the stadium, the balloon has to fly higher
than 40 meters. You have four tickets available, of which only two can be in the
air at a time. If a ticket has touched down in the stadium, a little message will
appear.
At the right side of the basket, you can see how many tickets you have dropped.
Tickets that have missed the stadium are crossed.
The
tank scale shows how much gas you have left to operate the burner.
If the gas tank is empty, you can't operate the burner any more, and the balloon
will go down.
By clicking on the
map you can switch between panorama view and map view.
So these are the game rules! Maybe you're a bit puzzled right now, but it's not
