Bus popped up in the middle of nowhere July 13, 2009, 07:50:22 pm I created a largish 512 by 512 map. I then created my first bus for it - created a few bus stops, and a route. I applied the route to the bus, hit start, and the bus appeared somewhere else.The somewhere else was in the middle of trees the other side of the map. To get an idea of how far it popped up - the depot is at 38, 252 and the random area it popped up at is 258, 37. What is more, I cannot see the bus as I think it has popped up 2 levels above the land at that point. A very bizarre development.Here is the save - too big to attach. The bus has the name "CrazyLostVehicle" on it - it can be found in the list.The game is version 101. Pak128. On x86 Ubuntu Linux.I have got the bus to appear and get moving again in a later save of the game by raising the land and creating a long road from it at the right level. I think this is a bug. I searched the forums and didn't find anything similar. Quote Selected

Re: Bus popped up in the middle of nowhere Reply #2 – July 13, 2009, 09:48:16 pm I wander - typing a route name, hitting a capital R while putting in waypoints.. I don't think I did but it is not impossible I suppose.. Odd. Quote Selected
Re: Bus popped up in the middle of nowhere Reply #3 – July 20, 2009, 06:25:39 am This looks like a bug that I remember from years ago, when player vehicles would become caught in traffic jams and get magically transported to a far-away road tile. It looked pretty cool, but rarely did it help… Quote Selected

We had fixed it (r2354), but I can't find the thread... Quote Selected
