Multiple Bus Stops per Bus Station
Is it possible to have 1 bus station, with 1 bus line, containing multiple stops along the route? If so, what's the best way to achieve that?

Does that mean the state treasury will get additional money every time a Tropican uses a car from a garage?

Apologies for soundling like such a newbie, I only recently purchased Tropico 6 and I am still trying to get familiar with some of these basics.

Yes, cars are rentals unless you use the free wheels edict. You won't make much profit from it though as it requires a certain amount of wealth to rent and the cost of the building is barely offset by the income

Nor does it cost a significant amount when you use free wheels. The free wheels edict costs a small fixed amount of money no matter how many people are using cars.

Yes the state does get the income, just like they get income from housing rentals, just like the state gets food, church and healthcare income if you have those set to charge money, these are all ways you get the money back from tropicans along with entertainment buildings

It's a fixed amount plus the cost of the upkeep of each garage and the loss of the income from rentals, so there's 3 factors of cost involved if you use that edict

No.

To achieve something similar you need multiple bus garages, and basically you place the start station next to the end station of the other. People are willing to switch.

In my experience the best way is using free wheels+garages, and put bus station, or metro to garages at the end of jams to reduce traffic jam. Tropicans can spawn their cars at any garage. Even if said garage were reached by a bus, or metro.

Huh. I never noticed. Must be a tiny amount.
