You'll need to work in lines with multiple stops in order to make enough money to break even, and bus lines need to be connected to back-bone or inter-city lines run by long-distance buses, trains, airplanes or ferries. This game doesn't churn out enough passengers early in the game for you to be using a hub and spoke design pattern Spoke-hub_distribution_paradigm, or even point-to-point connections like they are useful in TTD. Here's a few quick things to make sure you do and don't these may be very different from TTD. Expanding your lines will have a ripple effect and will increase your ridership exponentially throughout your network because people will start working their way from distant cities to reach the new stops.Ĭities will only grow if almost all of them are connected, but you should start with serving denser areas (city centers) and tourist attractions. Having people waiting at stations isn't bad, having 'orange' stations -is- bad.
Build several stations, using the lowercase (v) key to watch your catchments.Build a road depot somewhere in your city.(The minimap is the 2nd button from left.) buses), which are compensated by fares, and the cost of maintaining the infrastructure (rails/roads/canals, the stations that collect your passengers, etc.). You have two costs to take into consideration: The operating costs of your vehicles (e.g. Your mission at first is to keep your costs as low as possible while you try to break even on a month-to-month basis. The bus line is good because it'll give you a feel for exactly how Simutrans is different. If you want to play a 'real' game, I suggest building a big bus line first and then using trains to link your cities. If you want to experiment without being able to go bankrupt, just turn on freeplay mode. When you first get started, you'll be tempted to play with the trains and trams. I play PAK128 because I have a small but high-res monitor.

SimuSetup will download the game and the PAK files that you need. I recommend visiting the Simutrans homepage and downloading SimuSetup and SimuStarter. You can use the 80 km/h signs to help this along, but don't lock your own vehicles out! Be aware that there are cars that travel slower than the speed you'll want to travel at. As cities grow and new factories are added, you - at least - may want to adjust the transport capacity. After you have set up a well-designed network, it should continue to run flawlessly (except that your vehicles may get stuck in heavy traffic, caused by city cars, or AI players flooding the streets with too many trucks).
Depots and stations/stops have to be built on existing track/road.
You will NOT have the 'what, me worry about money?' situations like you do many times in TTD. It's *hard* to make money in this game.Also, many industry types need to be supplied with several types of material before they start producing, and they also have limited production/consumption rates, and limited input and output storage space. Look at industry information to see which sells to which. If the factory you're at doesn't sell to the supermarket that's your destination, you won't be given anything to transport. If you don't provide a connection (directly or via hubs) for them, they just won't appear at your station/stop. These are chosen randomly every time passengers/mail are 'generated'. Passengers and mail have destinations.Don't use too many buses on a line Use bigger buses.Parking areas can expand your bus catchment.English Simutrans Wiki Simutrans for Transport Tycoon Players
