Summary​

Picking passengers on one stop takes HOURS!

Steps to reproduce​

Just create tam/bus lines on streets in medium density residential buildings. Problem occurred in have used lines (about 15 stops on route, below 10 km). Buses are not overfilled (they are mainly near empty). Buses are not in traffic jam.

Expected Result​

As in real, Bus arrive on stop, passengers exchange quickly and bus depart.

Actual Result​

Bus arrive on stop passengers and.... wait in picking state near one hour or more making a buss jam on platform. Same situation is for trams. No private cars cause that situation. At rush hours I have sometimes even 6 buses from one line waiting on the same stop.

Game Version​

1.0.1.12f1

Affected Feature​

  • Balance

Platform​

seeing that 1 year later the developers have ignored this bug, does anyone know of a mod that currently works with the version of the game that fixes this?
Not now, also there has never been a mod that actually fully resolves the issue. They use a separate but equally broken system for taxis that no mod has ever addressed or fixed. Thus even with mods the issue was just eliminated on non taxi forms of transit.
 
I've previously had this issue with buses, and I am now also experiencing it with taxi stands on vanilla roads, grinding traffic to a halt. Disheartening to see this bug was initially raised over a year ago.

Nice to see that the problem STILL persists, even though the patch today was supposed to have fixed it. Good job Paradox! :)
No, what they fixed is a different problem that is how long it takes to to actually get into the vehicle. The issue of it being stuck is often there is a person who is not even at the stop who should be and so it will wait for them to walk across the map to get there.

Utterly ridiculous. Imagine if public transit did that in real life....
 
I'm also seeing this on trains / trams / busses. I assume subways are also affected but i don't have those atm.
What it appears to be is that it only happens with full vehicles.
It's like the last person trying to board gets stuck in the door.

Another possibility is that there is some broken spacing mechanic going on.
The vehicle will just sit there for ages, usually border-lining the despawn timer for the next vehicle that is wanting to use the platform.
2 stations on a loop with 2 trains and both trains will just always be at the station, but the 2nd train will leave normally after the first finally sets off but the next lap the first one will get stuck again.
 
In past versions, the "All Aboard" mod fixed that. I haven't tried to test if it works or is available for this build. It's so obvious, real public transport always leaves on schedule, with very minor delays if someone is "1 foot in the door". If a passenger is not onboard, they have to book another flight or catch the next bus.
 
This is getting very frustrating, trains completely full are getting "stuck" at stations for wayyy too long causing a back up that eventually block all traffic (especially when external trains passing through get in and create even more mess)
Please guys do something about it!

A simple wait timer, wait for ... Seconds, should solve this. If you are registered for it, but you are too slow.. tough luck, get the next one. In all public transports you have this rule, they need to operate on a "strict'ish" timetable. you can't create a bottleneck for 2 slowpokes.
Out of the city buses, can, if no passengers, not leave the station until it makes financial sense, but that is very rare.
 
The International Airport is also heavily affected by this - as if trains are waiting for passengers that have yet to arrive by plane. It will be waiting for absolute ages, blocking the railway line as a result.

I always encounter this issue with Taxi cabs and only those. They seem to like to loiter at the International Airport, blocking an army of impatient cabbies behind them as they wait for an additional passenger (who is presumably still in the air)
