No income from buses?

[BayfordIOW]

Hi all,

It might be me being abit slow, but im not getting any income from my buses. I thought it might have something to do with the 'Go To' directions so i'll type them out. None the less can u guys explain why?

1: Go To Conningwell
2: Go To Sunston
--End of Orders--

Could you post a save game that shows the problem?

There is a chance that you don't have (many) passengers yet, so the bus has nothing to make income off of.

I look at your save game, but I did not see anything wrong with the orders of the buses, I even set up my own route to test. I did notice one thing, there are two "MPS Regal" Buses availble for purchase at the buy bus window. I think NewGRFs are messing with the profits, but I really am not sure.

I tried without any GRFs, and the profits work. I then retried the save game and took off GRF-by-GRF to test which one causes the problem and found that after removing all GRFs above and including Generic Cars (alphebetically), the profits worked again. This means that I started from the top of the GRF list, then removed a couple each time, an when I got to (and removed) Generic Cars, the profits were working.

Attached is a list of the GRFs I had left when profit was working.
