What am I missing?

I'm coming from TTD Patch and OpenTTD! I'm trying to figure out why I can't get passengers into my busses then to the airport for a flight to a neighboring city. Setting up all the hardware was easy, Road Depots, Bus Stops and Busses. Bus station at Airports too. 8) Airports have taxiways, runways, loading areas, Depots and terminals. :mrgreen: No problems getting the aircraft to fly from one to the other. The software is the problem, the people are missing! I'm using Pak128 and I don't use Lines when setting up the routes, I wonder if this might be a problem? :D


Thanks!

Did you already built your aircrafts and buses ? You must build them first, otherwise no passengers will show up.

Do your stations accept passengers? Check for a small passenger icon in the station window. Under Station Window -> Details you will see all connected halts for a particular freight (eg passengers).

uploading a savegame would also help to help :)

I'm pretty sure I built the stops before I bought the busses! I'll upload the saved game later today!

Thanks, Dwachs!

Here's the Saved Game for Pak128! It's called Lichfield! :D

Thanks!

Nothing wrong there.

You have to cover as much of a town as possible to generate passengers. Passengers will travel only if there is a route to their destination.

The train in Nottingham is also redundant and will not generate any profit.

Thanks for the link to the other forum! So it's kind of like the old SimCity 2000, where the Sims would only go so far looking for a route? That's make sense! I'll try to give them some more cities to travel to as well! :D

Thanks, Dwachs!
