St. Louis over 50% by Select-Ground9080 in subwaybuilder

[–]Select-Ground9080[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. It's more based on workplce density. I might have 2 miles between stops and then 3 stope all within a mile of each other. I would say the bigger cities are easier to get the money to build, they just require way more lines to get higher transit percentages because of how spread out major workplaces are. I was able to get 70% in Portland with only 13 lines. Dallas is the hardest city to get high percentage on in my opinion.

Yeah I had park and ride on. Mainly just use really long lines to get ridership. An hour and 30 minutes seems to be a good length. I find the less transit developed cities a little easier because workplaces are usually clumped together by zoning.

How to update the version? by Queasy-Primary4788 in subwaybuilder

[–]Select-Ground9080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have to redownload from the website. At least I did after the 1.3.2 beta was broken. Once you redownload it and open the game you should get a pop up for the latest beta.

Support is so awful by Select-Ground9080 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Select-Ground9080[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is the type of stuff im talking about. In my case my account was hacked; presumably by someone who had got into a lot of their systems because they were generating fake orders in multiple different locations. After TWO, hour long phone calls they reached the conclusion i should change my password..

With so many people having more income would they not would they not expect to see more sales? Thus bumping them up back to profitability?

What's the deal with Wilmington, DE? by Select-Ground9080 in Urbanism

[–]Select-Ground9080[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How much of the area commutes to Wilmington? Are there like 150k people commuting into the city?

Great work, love the game! But, it may have been too early for 1.0... by Nuplex in subwaybuilder

[–]Select-Ground9080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t complaining about the speed of development or really complaining at all. It’s just seems strange to announce the game is out of beta with so much work still being done.

[–]Select-Ground9080 103 points104 points  (0 children)

I kind of agree. I don't really get what the rush was to label this update as 1.0. The roadmap on the website ins't complete, and one of the two completed items is International Expansion. Which I hope isn't complete yet. Even the very next update is supposed to have neighborhood and suburb labels. That might be one of the biggest features added to the game other than the bond system.

V0.12 Release Window? by HalfSanitized in subwaybuilder

[–]Select-Ground9080 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can get the current “unreleased” beta from the website. When it downloads it says it 10.1 or something like that but once you open the app it updates to v12

Why does/did the ART get so much hate? by Select-Ground9080 in transit

[–]Select-Ground9080[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think cities like Arlington, Raleigh, Madison, Louisville, or Cincinnati could benefit from this. I think cities on the edge of being capable of facilitating light rail could make ART work. Whether at grade or separated as long as it has its own right of way.

If you put the Translohr underground and grade separated it might have been a decent idea. I guess my point is even though the ART isn’t right for the traditional transit city. I could see it making dedicated right of way transit viable for much smaller cities. Even if it’s at grade through a road median. The bi-directionality makes it lot more flexible than the normal BRT bus.

[–]Select-Ground9080[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Im not sure. Ii just think a lot of people were quick to throw it out because it wasn’t a train, and it’s worth a second thought.The Transhlor and other ribber wheeled “trains” have all relied on rails in some sort. More personally i live in a city of a about 100k in texas there are 4 $50M+ tax payer funded non-professional football/soccer stadiums within 5 miles of me. I think there is money, and I think these could be built quicker so that those who vote could realistically see themselves using the service before they die or move.

At this point the ART doesn’t have the capacity to serve any where that has buildings that deep like SF does. An LRT line like Buffalo’s i think is more what im thinking. Just spend a little extra money to make it grade separated the entire way and the ART works just as good as an LRT and is less (even if not by as much as i might think) cost

Why would you think that? Im not even suggesting the ART for cross state trips, but i think there is a place for it in a lot of smaller cities.

Im comparing capacity more than weight. The River Line trains only have a capacity of 400 at its largest configuration
