Very nice bus
Perfect for my bustop
Great detailed modern bus while very low LI
This is 2000s Japanese-made bus and a quite detailed model with a lot of functions and great LODs - you can look at it from far away at the default setting of LOD factor 2 without anything crumpling up or breaking apart -, and yet it only has 27 land impact.
Nice handling - no spinning in place, and you can get it through tight winding city streets and precisely park it if you are a decent driver. You can also drive in mouselook and use controls on the dashboard for things like lights, door etc.
A neat little detail you might not notice at first: When you use the brakes, you actually use up some air pressure, and once it falls low, the compressor will start up. This is actually a separate engine with its own fuel tank and exhaust on the right side of the vehicle. You can hear it when you drive in mouselook.
There are high quality sounds for a lot of functions - main engine of course, air compressor, air brakes, reverse beeper, flicking switches, air-pressure operated door and suspension, indicator relais are a few I can immediately think of.
Also you can carry about half a sim-fill of people if you should ever have a need to do that, and make your own livery pretty easily. The painted parts are a separate texture with a simple UV layout.
The only thing I found annoying is that I can't just drop in any sit animation to turn it into a pony bus, but have to make custom ones, due to the special sit system with limited customization.
Also note it's 500L$ extra to get the version with modifiable permission. You can set custom textures without it, so if that is enough for you, you might not need it.
L$ 2,500
