Take for example the route “Route 6” below. This allows you to quickly check whether the route requires more buses to meet demand. You can sort them in several ways including by "request fulfilled". On the side of the interactive map, you can view the summary of each of your routes at any time. Handy for quickly knowing which ones you can improve. If you click on the name of the district, you will see at a glance the current and maximum possible level of all the stops in the district.
Trick : feel free to change the loop path type (default) to ping-pong. Remember that as the level of stops changes, their value may change and will not necessarily always be at 1 (even if the number in the pellet does not change). It is up to you to succeed in balancing it and to allocate enough buses to it. The longer your route, the more potential it will have to bring you back. We therefore advise you to always use the "request" type view. To maximize the occupancy of your buses, be sure to balance your trip with the same number of green requests (upbound passengers) as pink (downbound passengers). By clicking on the route creation option, you will see a window similar to the one below.įrom there, it's up to you to build an itinerary that meets the requirements of the scenario (passing through certain districts or stops, connecting two districts, etc.). Route creation in detailīy pressing the TAB key, you will arrive on the interactive map as well as the list of your routes (on the left). Thus, only 1 bus per trip will be sufficient at first, whatever happens. Note that it is by no means mandatory to fully meet the demand for each of your trips to start generating comfortable income.
Thus, if your trip has a demand of 6, you will need several buses (2 buses of 3, 3 buses of 2,…) to fully meet the demand and generate the maximum income available for this trip. In the game there are buses from capacity 2 to 4 (for older children). In fact, it is nothing more or less about its ability to meet a certain demand.
When you go to the dealership (which has several stores spread across the city) on foot or on a fast trip, and you activate the selection desk, you will have the choice of sorting the buses offered according to several criteria ( price, type of engine, etc.) including the " bus loads". In fact, there is no longer an “optimize the route” function that automatically ensures that the stops will be in the correct traffic order and that the busy periods will be taken into account. In this new opus of Bus Simulator, the economic dimension is more extensive than in version 18 while being less assisted. Now that Bus Simulator 21 is out ( our test and review here), we thought it might be interesting to provide you with this handy little guide to help you become a wealthy and successful entrepreneur in the brand new town of Angel Shores.
