Balancing

- Optimised number of passengers at airports and schools
- Fixed bug that line exchanges sometimes did not work

Please note that the new passenger numbers will first be calculated from the next day in existing savegames. The balancing has changed a lot with this update. We would be happy to receive your feedback on the new passenger numbers in your savegames, so that we can make additional adjustments. Please also let us know how the ticket prices are set, what the current company rating is and how high the current willingness to use public transport is, as all this has an influence on the passenger numbers 🙂
