Is it normal for

Passengers to cross from the other bus stop and get on your bus while walking through the bus turn round and walk on?

Ive seen this on a lot of maps (even the berlin-spandau original map)

If you have changed your destination displays before taking your break, yes, then it's normal as the passengers "see" the bus with the correct destination near the bus stop so they start walking towards it. Just leave the IBIS setup unchanged until you're ready to go.

No no this is en route not at the terminuses. It can be near a terminus or in a middle of a route.. it varies

Ah? No, that's not normal...can you give an example where this happened on the Spandau map?

Havent played that map for a while so not too sure, but maybe the passengers have been set up incorrectly on the user created maps..?

And are you and marcel making anymore maps yoursevles anytime soon?

Here's one, which I've mentioned in this thread 2 months ago:

Zitat :

While I was operating on the 13N to Rathaus Spandau, I've seen people waiting at the Sandstr bus stop (the one along Heerstr, not the one along Sandstr) approach my bus, but the 13N doesn't stop there.

This very issue also happened at that intersection while I was operating the 92E to Rathaus Spandau.

I have seen this too on a couple of addon maps yes..

Okay, this should be the only busstop on the Spandau map where this happens.
Short explanation:
The Sandstr. busstop in the Heerstr. is served by the lines 94 and 97. But the bus 97 goes to Rathaus Spandau, too, just like the 92E/13N, but only after a detour through Pichelsdorf. So if at this very busstop there are people who want to go to the Rathaus Spandau area by line 97, they will aim for the 92 as well if the destination says "Rathaus Spandau". OMSI passengers don't recognize the line, all they care about is the destination display. And if it shows a stop on the route they want to travel, they will board.
So this weird situation only happens when you have two bus lines that separate and later meet again AND serve different bus stops nearby.

Oh ok rudiger thanks for clearing that up, are we going to see any addons from yourself and marcel ?

We will keep on working on OMSI, but first we have to focus on our diploma thesis to get our university degrees done. And the SDKs also need finishing.

Ok no problem, thats definitely more important, good luck

Good to hear some feedback with regards to the genius developers at hand. Another map from M & R will be uber fantastico!

We wait with bated breath

On the Newcastle map that I'm working on, I positioned two bus stops (opposite sides of the road) too close to eachother - they were literally straight opposite eachother).... and when I tested the map, the passengers on the opposing side of the road were crossing over to get on buses on the other side, as Tom described.

I wondered whether it was because the bus stops were abeam eachother - because when I offset the bus stops, the passengers stopped doing this.

Cheers,
David.

Is this the problem your having?

Ralph that same problem happens in Sachsen Analt as well, it may be due to the bus stops being in close proximity like what David R said.

I've had this issue as well

Yeah I get it on add on maps a lot, but even if you're travelling in completely the opposite direction. They'll walk across the road to you even though they want to go somewhere you've just come from! (even if you have the correct destination displayed)

Weird perhaps, but maybe not unrealistic. I stopped at that stop by accident on a 92E (forgot where I was for a minute!), and a few passengers got on, as they might in real life if they wanted to go to a destination served by both my route and another...
