A.I Buses not showing flip dot nor roll sign destination

Anyone here know who to solve this problem? Well I created a route in New Berlin Spandau & everything is good but the only problem is the a.i buses on the route, it only show the route number but no destination hence that have no passenger onboard & I also created a bus terminus but the bus didnt stop at the bus terminus but instead it drove off.. HELP!

It might be something wrong with your code. I hope this helps, but back up your data just in case:

You have to make sure that the terminus name in the .hof file, the name of the bus stop in the .map file (you have to know what tile the bus stop is on), and the name of the bus stop in the .ttp file in the map/TTData folder all match. For instance, say the terminus name is Abc De. Here's what to do:

In the .hof file (first few lines):

	Source code
1 2 3	[addterminus] (1-, 2-, or 3-digit destination code - "ziel") Abc De

To determine the .map file, there are two options: (1) you have to look at the bitmap (.bmp) images in the map's folder and match it with wherever your terminus is. You have to know the map well in order to easily spot it. Or (2) Open the map through the Editor and search for the terminus (probably the easier approach).
Then take note of the tile's coordinate (ex. -1, 2) and open the .map file with the same coordinate (tile_-1_2.map), search for the bus stop ID number, and correct the name assigned:

	Source code
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14	Object Nr. ### [object] # Sceneryobjects\Generic\bus_stop.sco (Bus stop ID number) # # # # # Abc De # # #

In the .ttp file (near the top of the file):

	Source code
1 2 3	[trip] .ttr file name (without ".ttr" at the end) Abc De(whatever this line is for)

I used some of this to edit Great Grundorf to my preferences, and it works for me. I didn't add a line but I had to make sure everything matched.

Moral: programming is tedious and frustrating, but there's always the "Oh!" moment to look forward to. Hope this helps! :thumbup:
