Costs and Profit Reference

Note - Route Operating Profits do not take into account the maintenance costs of the gates used for the route. This is because the gate maintenance costs are fixed costs that are paid regardless of whether or not they are used for a route. For reference, gate maintenance costs for gates used in a route are equivalent to the route size factor.

Other Costs

• Route Launch Cost: 1
• Route Closure Cost: 1
