Airport Tycoon 2 Update 6 — Co-op Saves

The listing change that made Airport Tycoon 2 a friend tycoon.

Last updated:

Update 6 Co-op

Update 6 is the reason the Roblox title now reads [CO-OP] Airport Tycoon. The description leads with: play with your friend, start a new save profile, build a giant airport together, climb the co-op leaderboard. This page is the patch note. The playbook is the co-op guide.

What changed

Before Update 6 the loop was already a six-player server with a +10% per friend money bonus. Update 6 added a shared career: one wallet, one layout, one board. That is a bigger deal than an extra scanner skin.

You still get:

  • Offline earnings
  • Auto-save
  • Premium/Plus +15% money / +15% luck
  • Like + group +1,000

Those were listing items before and remain true. Co-op sits on top.

What did not change

  • Not split-screen, not couch co-op. It is online on Roblox.
  • Badge list still starts at Takeoff! and ends at Ultimate Airport (walkthrough).
  • Codes still redeem in Store, still unconfirmed.
  • Star Tokens stay gone from expansions (Update 5).

Migration advice

Keep your solo file. Create the new profile for the friend. Rebirth tokens on solo do not need to move. If you already dragged a friend through a messy solo airport, freeze that file and start clean — the patch text wants a new save.

Leaderboard

The co-op board is a social hook. It is not a badge. Chasing it before Line Buster is how you skip security. Play the Getting Started order on the shared file, then glance at ranks.

Conflicts with World 2

World 2 may add a winter airport on the same career or as a second world. Either way, agree with your partner which profile is the event file. Two people clicking two profiles is how you “lose” a terminal.

Troubleshooting

Friend cannot buy. Different saves. Exit to profile select. Bonus not +10%. They may not count as a Roblox friend, or they are in another server. Progress rolled back. Leave after a purchase, wait for auto-save, then quit. Both clients should see the amenity before anyone rage-leaves. Voice. The listing says voice chat is not supported. Use external chat.

Player guide: co-op. Parent: updates. Money stacking: how to get money. Group link: Roblox group.

Why the title changed

The universe name is now [CO-OP] Airport Tycoon. That is marketing and a mechanical flag: six-player servers were always there; the shared save profile is the patch. Do not create the co-op file on top of a solo Perfectionist grind unless both of you agree to freeze that badge on the old profile.

Friend bonus +10% still requires a Roblox friend in the instance, not merely a random in the fountain. Voice chat remains unsupported — use text. Auto-save is official; wait for the amenity to appear on both clients before anyone leaves.

VIP servers are not allowed on this universe. You cannot buy a private six-slot to cheese the co-op board. Play public, or hop until you land together.

Update 6 is the identity patch. If a future Update 7 rewrites the description again, this page stays as history and the hub takes the new lead.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Is Update 6 required to play with friends?

You could already share a server. Update 6 adds a dedicated shared save and co-op leaderboard.

Will co-op overwrite my solo airport?

Not if you create the new profile the patch asks for. Keep solo as a separate file.

Is this local co-op?

No. It is online co-op on Roblox with a six-player server cap.

Do both players get the +10% bonus?

The listing grants +10% money per friend in the session. Be Roblox friends and stay in the same server.
