As you may have noticed, one of the vehicles you'll be able to play in AirportSim is the Shuttle Bus. There's nothing more challenging than ensuring passenger satisfaction! Let's take a closer look at how it will be implemented in our game:
Receiving a summons
The tablet will provide graphic and audio notifications.
When can you start?
The task becomes feasible once the stairs can be connected to the aircraft (cooperation is possible when multiple players are involved).
Bus stop
Depending on the available space, the bus will stop in front of the left wing, precisely at its left edge. This designated area will be highlighted in yellow, indicating where you should stop. It's a predefined location.
Boarding passengers onto the Shuttle Bus
After parking and opening the doors, passengers will begin to disembark from the aircraft. The aircraft information display will show the percentage of passengers already loaded onto the vehicle.
Don't forget to close the doors
Once all the passengers have been loaded, the player closes the doors and heads towards the terminal. Each airport has its own designated stop, marked by a specific zone where the player should park.
Letting passengers off
When the bus doors open, passengers will exit, and the number of passengers inside the vehicle will be displayed. Once the passenger count reaches zero, the doors can be closed, and the bus can be moved to its designated location.
The same process in reverse
Picking up passengers from the stop and transporting them to the aircraft will follow the same procedure.
Bus stop (pickup and drop-off)
The bus stop is a designated location on the map, serving as a fixed point for picking up and dropping off passengers, regardless of the flight.
Parking spot:
Similar to the fuel truck, the parking spot for the bus will be marked by a rectangular area. Single pickup request: If there is only one passenger pickup request at that time, using the tablet will not be necessary.
Are you excited to experience a ride on the shuttle bus? We certainly are! But now, you can delve deeper into the mechanics of AirportSim. Get ready for the game release, which is approaching with significant strides!
