Dynamic/better routing for train passengers - new mod development
Hi modding community!

I'm thinking of trying to design a mod that allows for more dynamic routing for train passengers. Currently train passengers will only take the train that has the highest frequency along a route, even if another train on another line going to their destination arrives to their station first. This effectively means that multiple lines going through the same set of stations does not increase the capacity of that link (as only an increase in frequency on the most frequent service would do so).

I'm relatively new to modding Transport Fever (but not modding in general) and haven't been able to find the right chunk of code to work on to change this. I want to have the game try to change the routes assigned to passengers after they first spawn. Has anyone else ever tried to mod something like this before?

If anyone could help point me in the right direction I'd be happy to do the grunt work myself and update the community on my progress!

Kind regards,
Jacobite

I'm not sure if what you want is possible, I would also say it is likely to be very process hungry if passengers were continually changing their routes .

I have to say that the original premise is somewhat in error . Passengers are either fast or cheap so two passenger routes conforming to this will always work together ,so simply put one train fast such that passengers can always get from A to B quicker and one train slow .

I can share screenshots of this working.
