Again because of the way the set is coded I have to choose either a door on both sides or a door on neither side... I'm thinking a door on both sides would look best...
Someone has made a bus set before. He made both a left-hand and a right-hand drive set. I think you had to include either manually, using some GRF. It isn't really hard on the rendering, since you can probably just mirror the sprites (though you'd have to map between some IDs). It's not very user friendly right now I guess. But it surely adds realism.
Sorry that I'm too lazy to point you to those sets.
I know it is possible, and I know how to do it and I could do it if I wanted to (as I am the creator of GRVTS), but it involves coding which I really can't be bothered to do
Looks fantastic! I'm thinking of there will be articulated, double decker and regional buses... Yummy
Keep up the good work! Btw, the 2. bus's door can be after the axle, it can be more realistic in that way.
You keep amazing me with your speed and quality.
Just wondering, did you test the double decker in tunnels and under bridges? Isn't it too high and thus giving glitches?
Would be a pity if that's the case, I sure would love to start a game with Convoy and these buses.

The 8bpp sprites gave glitches so I'm sure these will too! It is sadly 100% unavoidable if you want to have any double-deckers though I will test them out and see how they look... It may be that a small decrease in height would help.
About the tunnels problem, I guess the best way to avoid glitches is simply to not build any tunnels in the places where these are likely to drive, or build some tall building in front of the entrance if it is really necessary. The buses are fine right now.
Wow. These vehicles are <insert word here to justify these vehicles>. I am sure that the 32bpp eGRVTS will be the only 32bpp set I will ever need for road vehicles.

Well, IMO, the buses look a little unsupported at the articulation, and in real life the trailers are shorter, so I would make them shorter, but it's up to you.

Awesome! The trams will finally have pantographs! Now we need 32bpp tram wires...
Looks good!
You are a hero!
