    Why aren’t there no sleeping passengers in the trains. How often do you see passengers nooding off or snoozing inside trains. Until it come to a complete stop. Or placing there head on the train window. What do you think should it be recommended. Specially on longer route. Wake up wake up.

    I think they're all asleep, just have their eyes open - why? Because none of the buggers EVER get off the seats!! Once they sit down, that's it, they never get up!

    If dtg can make passengers lean against the windows without them hanging out the train I'm all for it.

    Waste of resources which cause performance problems

    Haha, he has point though. I think if they add more scripts to passenger behaviour it will cause more issues with the game.

    I’m fun at parties ;)

    Honestly with how many NPC passengers stay on terminating trains you'd think they had all fallen asleep

    I'd rather have passengers running for the train because they don't understand what a timetable is.

    Better to fix the current broken passenger behaviour rather than add anything new.

    I'd much rather see a drunken passenger get out the train and faceplant onto to the platform.

    Yes, I've seen that before.
    Yes, it's hilarious.

    Alternatively, maybe we could just have a realistic number of passengers on routes. Frankfurt Hbf or Euston have only got a few hundred or so people in them. Performance allowing it would be good to see properly busy stations at long last.

    I guess it’s awkward.. I don’t know… I did the football special scenario from Euston line yesterday.. when I pulled into the station to collect football fans.. there were no football fans at all just the usual number of random people wearing bobble hats, blue socks and sandals.

    Sounds good,
    that makes it more realistic, which is why they miss the trip by oversleeping.
