Xtra Large Bus Station V2

Description
An extra large 1 way bus station with 6 vehicle positions using advanced vehicle pathing. (Requested item by linch-roman)

After hours of testing multiple variants (including an 8 positions station), different road configurations and different access order to the stations, I have come to the conclusion that at least at the time of publishing, the actual game mechanics IMHO (game version 0.8.1.19 experimental) do not benefit much from the 2 extra bus positions and this XL version does not surpass the vanilla Large Station V2 with 4 bus positions.

That is why I am not including this station in my 'New Bus Stations Pack'. It will be kept stand alone for those like linch-roman who want to 'push the limit' of the game.

I hope you find it useful but please do not request different variants as they did not work any better... Trust me I have tested!

TIP: Whatever you do, keep the exit road as free flowing as possible or you will have the biggest traffic jam within the station you have ever seen.
If that happens, getting out of the station would be a matter of how good and pushy the bus driver is ( exactly as in real life LOL )

The texturing is ?♣2.93B2TitusSauseS26.5♠? s work and was done in a way to keep the stations looking as much as possible as the vanilla ones but with a fresh coat of paint and he did a great job at doing exactly that.

As always, many thanks to everybody at the modders discord ( https://discord.gg/PE2My9R ) and especially RyanTheSkinny and OffTheRailsGaming for all the help, advice and tips they provide day in day out.

Disclaimer: Parts of the in-game models and textures created by the game developers were used within the mod so adapting this mod for other games is a big NO NO!

The one way markings on completed build are wrong way around for me. Which is also the case with at least the XS one way bus stop from your other mod: Bus/Trolley Combo Stations.

Just a small, yet rather annoying thing

I play always with test branch enabled (mainly coz I forget to turn it off...), IDK if that affects things

Edit: would be nice if trolley busses worked with this one

@RICZrd, it is not as simple/straightforward as you might think.

There was a reason for having 2 roads for this large station and having one as entry and 1 as exit and that was to maximize the flow/throughput of buses going through.

Doing it in any other way would cause buses to get clogged inside the station when their numbers increase.

I mean, if it was just for the aesthetics and flexibility and not necessarily for the ability to handle a lot of buses, you are much better off using either my other bus stations mod ( https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2078672295 ) or other modders' smaller bus stations.

First of all, I really like your bus station design.

1. Could you please create an identical bus station that has the entrance and exit for buses on the same side? I would greatly appreciate this.

2. I would also welcome a bus station that has only one shared entrance and exit. I know that there is such a bus station in the game, but unfortunately, it's not as nice as yours.

Thank you very much.

Many thanks for your feedback. Much appreciated.

If you see any issues in any of of the stations please let me know if you can :)

PS: ah, just realized that the previous comment was referring the XS to M versions, didn't try out XL one yet; subbed at least.

@Akira43 I've just subbed to this mod for a new map and wondered if that question was a problem sign; so far so good, no woes in sight, thanks a lot for a good piece that was missing for me :-)

@gvynd, any what? Game changes that would impact the vehicle pathing in the station?
At the time I checked with other modders like a month ago I was assured that nothing had been changed. There were other updates since though.

Why do you ask? Are you having issues with pathing?

Please try to explain it as best as you can if you reply and make sure that you have connected the station properly giving proper attention to the one way street connections especially.

Cheers

@Akira43 were there any? :)

would be awesome if you could make tram versions :D

@k4rt0ff3lsupp3, I haven't looked at the latest game update yet so give me a couple of days to check on discord to see if there were changes made that would impact the vehicle pathing in the station.
