"Via"

[Pdguru]

It's a little thing... but I find it annoying that the destinations of passengers at stations/stops are described as "Via" Brighton when it should say "To" Brighton. Is there are way to change the word or is it buried in the code somewhere?

Yes, I agree that's true, but in the end I don't care where they are going next - only the destination where they will exit my vehicle. It's just a niggly thing. They are going TO that location.

Via is correct - they are trying to reach their final destination, which is Residential/Commercial/Industrial building , to do so they are going via your station.

Makes perfect sense now that you put it that way.

NOPE .. they are going TO the factory or Building VIA your train station :)

Try looking in the localization files. Just search for the word "via".

On the station screen "via" means "towards that direction".
It is not necessarily their final stop.
On a line that has A-B-C-D-E stations, people at the "C" station can go via "B" and via "D", but going via "B" does not necessarily mean that they will get off the train at "B" it can also mean that they will travel to "A".

Yes. But my point is I don’t care if they are going somewhere after that. I can’t tell either way. But they are going TO that station regardless of where they go next.

They will never go "to" the station they either go to somewhere nearby, or change transportation, or remain on the train. The station is NEVER their final destination.
By the way you can see where they want to go by clicking on each person.
Or you can use the destinations tab.
