Title: Station waiting list:sort by line(route)
Post by: spm on March 27, 2009, 07:39:30 am
The station waiting list can show or sort by route no.,so we can see the p****engers use which line to their destination,some station have a lot of line via there,so we can see which line is crowed.

Obvious question: What happen with the p****engers that don't use a route? Would you include them or ignore them when you process and sort the list? You might say that you only use routes (service lines) so there's no vehicle that don't operate on a service line, but we should consider all posibilities.

And, of course, there are p****engers, who can travel with several lines.

Please SEARCH before submitting such requests. This is requested every three month and is just not possible.

Is this in denied extension requests? If not, perhaps it would be a good idea to add it.

A possible alternative. We can't sort them by route, but would be possible to indicate somehow if they use a route or not? That way you at least could know if the station is crowed due to p****engers that use lines or not.

Example:

Quote
100 p****engers:
 - Destination A (50% by route)
 - Destination B (33% by route)
 - Destination C (65% by route)

What do you suggest he used for search terms...   "station waiting list "  only returns this thread.   "sort by line" returns no results.  Generally speaking, the search engine on this site isn't very good.  I have search for things I know that have been discussed on this forum before and gotten back no results.

I find using google "site:forum.simutrans.com" tends to give better results.

The predecessor topic is here: ideas for p****engers cl****ification (http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=1405.0).

Generally speaking, the search engine on this site isn't very good.
That's true IMO - before moving the forum to the current server, it was easier to find stuff. Maybe some setting or an index updater is missing.

I've just changed from "custom index" to "full index" to see if it helps :)
