This set complements my Real Cars road vehicle set, at the moment it consists in only 4 buses , I will surely design some more but I would like to finish my houses and buildings set first.

The single-decker buses are slower but have a higher passenger capacity, while the double-decker bus is faster but has a lower capacity.

Should this be the other way around?

It is a purely game style decision, I looked at the buses technical specifications and the double deck can carry fewer passengers, this is because the single deck can carry standing passengers (urban use) and DD not.

So I made the decision to do it like this: ok, common buses can transport more people but they are generally urban buses that travel at a lower speed while double-decker buses are generally used for long-distance trips on highways with which they travel at faster speed.

Which one will I use in my game? which one suits me best? well, that's the player's decision.

That seems very counter-intuitive - most sets use the seats as the capacity, and a single deck bus is definitely faster than a double decker due to being more stable

I'd have suggested doing it the other way round tbh, you'd get the same gameplay result but it would make more sense to people

In 2CC Trams, we use seated+standing for the capacity. The way Temporal8 has done it makes sense to me if all the single-deck coaches are only used for city/metro bus service and all the double deck coaches are used for intra-city bus service.

The bus capacity is according to real specifications, it is normal for an urban bus to have greater capacity (seated and standing passengers) while a long-distance bus carries only seated passengers. Perhaps it would be a good idea to add a bus terminal to Real Industries to differentiate between urban passengers and long-distance passengers, so that the latter pay a expensive trip.
