We just released our latest update for Bus Simulator 18. The update includes a number of bug fixes and game improvements as well as a new feature: with the help of the new “Multiplayer Rights Management” the owner of a bus company gets the opportunity to decide by himself what rights he want to offer the rest of his team member in detail. We hope you will enjoy it! :-)
New Feature:
Multiplayer Rights Management (Button next to any player > Window with all settings)
As a company owner you can set rights for other players to create a real structure in your company and in your game session. Those are the following options:
- Bus Shop: Allows to buy / sell buses
- Employees: Allows to hire / fire NPC drivers
- Route Editor: Allows to create, delete or edit routes
- Customize Drive Experience: Allows to adjust the drive experience
- Kick players: Allows to kick players from the game session
- Invite players: Allows to invite players to the game session
- Set Password: Allows to set or change the password of the game session
- Set Online Mode: Allows to change to the online mode
- Pin Players: Allows to pin players
Note: This feature isn't available for already existing games that have been created before the installation of Update #9! This means you have to create a new company to be able to use the Multiplayer Rights Management.
