So was the rush hour volume of passengers ever activated on London Commuter like they said they were going to do a year ago? Or was that quietly forgotten about?
I think it's one of those things that DTG would like us to forget about but it's not really panning out the way they hoped. However at this stage we have to presume that they are missing, presume killed. They might get round to including them but I think we have got more chance of finding Lord Lucan riding Shergar
They're probably all packed into a few trains at a depot somewhere. Seems to be their preferred destination for most journeys.
It been explained a million times that the performance issue is stopping them right now. Honestly with the way BML runs currently I’m surprised people actually want more passengers. Frame rate and crashing is an issue even on 9th gens and high spec PCs so if anything I’d want less of them. 1400 services with layers are maxing this route out I think until more optimizing is done. Passengers behave so wonky in this game that they don’t really add to immersion imo. You got completely empty trains in services, full trains parked at depots, some stations empty, some with a massive pile of people in one spot, 10 people piled into one exit on a train etc etc.
There is a mod to enable the rush hour passengers on PC only. I can say I havnt noticed any real performance difference with them personally.
