Bus Simulator 16: Update 4 available now!

Dear community,

our fourth major update for Bus Simulator 16 is now available for download here on Steam. In addition to the new "ROUNDTRIP" feature which allows to drive a route back and forth, so you will be able to drive a route back after you've completed it, the update also offers a general Force Feedback support for the most common steering wheels as well as further bug fixes and game improvements. Here is an overview of the changes:

Patchnotes:

Features:

  • "öäüß" are now allowed as characters in input-fields
  • Implemented general ForceFeedback (for non-Logitech(R) steering wheels) based on DirectInput
  • Logitech G25 and G29, and Thrustmaster T150 and T300RS are now properly recognized by the game
  • Most wheels will now have a proper default key binding
  • Implemented roundtrip feature

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed bus-stats display in owned busses and shop menu
  • Fixed label on police and ambulance cars not fitting in some languages
  • All options now fit again in the game settings tab in main menu
  • Fixed issue that bus name was displayed incorrectly when too long
  • With mouse steering enabled, the steering input does no longer change while the menu is open
  • When starting the game for the first time, it changes to windowed mode if not running at native resolution (to avoid the bug that the mouse position is offset)
  • Improved kneeling bonus detection: it is now checked for the first passenger who boards or unboards the bus at a given stop
  • Fixed wrong advertisement texture on big busstops
  • Improved GPS path calculations, covering several more edge cases where paths were not ideal
  • Added threshold to the "Wrong One-Way Direction" penalty (to avoid certain false-positives)
