I still have mixed feelings about BS21... I got the 18 and was kinda disappointing, especially the mods that were a huge flop.
It's not because I'm on TML forums but I kinda like what they are doing with The Bus, using a real city and real routes.
IDK... lets see
Display MoreI was finally able to test the latest update for the simulator and I want to give special thanks for the fact that the developers returned the missing sounds when opening the driver's window. Yes, now they are. I am very happy about that. Thank you so much!
Well, now let's get back to our trip
Today we will set off on a new fictional route in Berlin - the KLB Line. I would like to thank the forum member JD_Moddings for creating this route
From Alexanderplatz we will start our beautiful and picturesque route, and finish it with a stop next to the Indira Gandhi bus depot.
The duration of our trip will be 32 minutes.
I wish you a pleasant viewing!

Everything is like in real life
Nice that the guy is casually slow walking not giving a damn about the cars... very much like some people IRL lool
Wow, I saw on steam, the model is so beautiful, very well done!
I know it gives some feeling but is it really so important? To see 1 sec. of pass. boarding. If it takes longer and there is a button to make them beam up directly, 99% of us would click that button. So, it is not that important. Better other things to be improved, like AI Intelligence, i will be happy if it reaches ETS2 AI level at least. Second, light rain etc. And they i counted many things before to bring if possible :))
Was just a curiosity of mine lol since all other simulators from TML have and FBS dont
I`m more curious about the tech limitations than the practicality of things.
Thanks for your hard work guys! 
TBH I thought that Ryan [TML-Online Team] was already part of the team lool he is so helpful
Congrats to everybody!
Display MoreAjith - I understand you, but something you see as something that is cool and should be added, we may not be able too for one reason or another e.g. we can't add more rest stop because of the 1:10 scale, there's limited space and we also want to keep it realistic, in real life you don't have tonnes of rest stops, the driver has to plan out when they stop, the resting time in your PDA is the latest you can stop before penalty points, you're always able to stop earlier if you won't see another rest stop for a while, just ensure to plan in your resting times later on if necessary.
We're thankful for your suggestions, but maybe gather them and post in one message?, instead of loads of separate messages, it makes it easier for us to keep track of one message as supposed to 10 messages, plus we could miss something important.
It comes across as spamming, although that's not your intention I'm sure, still had to make you aware of it
Best Regards.
When I dont see a rest stop ahead in the trip that I could stop, I usually take a break at the bus stop... yea, I know its not immersive but its better than have the passengers saying that they want to smoke a cigarette, or pee all the time.
Guys just a simple question (IDK if was answered before) but TBS and The Bus, all the passengers walk to the bus and proceed to their seats.
Why don't we have this on FBS? Just a curiosity of mine lol
Know it’s disappointing news, but remember it’s not a flat out “no” it’s a “we’re too busy right now, but maybe in the future”
Best Regards.
I know, this would be probably a GIANT work and overhaul of the actual system, but be honest, you guys know that this would be awesome! One of the best features! I would not even care if was released as a DLC lol.
But I understand, I'm also a programmer so I can imagine how difficult would be to implement something like this.
Just feeling that my dreams were crushed a lil bit lol
As I see here you have the same GPU as me, a 1060 6gb so that would not be a problem, you also have enough memory to run the game 32 gig.
I would bet on the Windows closing the game for some strange reason.
Did you saw on the Event Viewer on windows to see what happened? Usually, if windows close anything, he shows the reason there.
(Just trying to help )
we are currently not planning on it because The Bus is so time-consuming. But we won't reject it completely for the futur

Nooooo!!!
The Bus GIF-downsized_large.gif
In order to make the environment in The Bus even more real, we are currently redesigning the buildings, among other things. Here is a little before and after comparison that you can see with one of the next BETAs in the game.
Just a simple question, these changes are using shaders to increase the depth or changes on the 3D models?
I can finally fill that space between France and Netherlands lol!
Display Morehello, I haven't got a game yet, because I'm thinking of waiting for the official one;)
I would like to know if in the official game.
you can put gasoline, wash the bus each time you use the bus where you cannot.
the ones I am concerned with in games are driving, fueling, washing buses, etc.
it will spice up the game;)
Thank you for your reply
Everything that is planned for The Bus is here: https://trello.com/b/kGhFZOke/the-bus-early-access-roadmap
I think its the best way to keep an eye of everything they are planning to do
I honestly think that the current map of the game is already BIG very BIG, sometimes I do a journey from Berlin to Paris and takes a very long time (with some stops on the way)
I really would like to see England... or at least some part of England? would be very nice to see the Eurotunnel as Euro Truck did
Temporary solution for this issue is - Switch off the passenger light (Brighter light) and turn the passenger dim light .Now you won't face the flickering issue while driving.
Regards.
Thanks! The update fixed this problem that I had, so I can use the VDL again! The flickering was terrible and was almost impossible to drive...
You guys could use this thread here: Fernbus Coach Simulator: Your wishes and ideas the devs always look there and answer
It's a very nice list but I think most of this requires some overhauls in the system... There is an economy system (hopefully) coming in the near future, that would give us something close to what Tourist Bus have (this is a speculation of mine because the Devs never explained how this economy system will be)
Also, the game suffers a little with performance (yet) this is why we don't have many cars and passengers.
For announcements, the devs said in another thread here that would be really hard to record announcements to all stops.
They were also studying you being assigned to spot in stations, but I don't know what happened to this system, it's being some time that the devs don't talk about this.
The thing that I really look forward is the Economy System, coz would add a totally new layer of immersion, since would be our responsibility take care of the buses, I think they did a really great job with Tourist Bus, and I really would like to see something similar to Fernbus
If you mean with the buildings then unfortunately that's a LOD error, which we can't fix as it's a fault in the UE4, we're waiting for Epic to fix this, once they do the flickering will go away
I was referring to the flickering on the VDL bus... I recorded a video in a post you answered
I'm a happy woman today.... The rain finally works! Hope the flickering is also fixed!
I've been waiting so long for this! 
(I was about to make a new thread asking about the update)
Ask and ye shall receive..
Here are the pics separately:

I really like how informative these screens are
