  • Hello! I was wondering if there was a way to set a bus at fast idle speed ingame, other than flooring the gas. Looking at the dashboard I never saw a button for it for any bus I have, but maybe there is a keyboard key that can activate it? Thanks!

  • This isn't really a thing on european buses, so this feature doesn't exist on basically all of them. The only one I know of is the Scania Citywide GN14.

    Really? So what do you guys do if you need to build up air pressure quickly, or during winter? Where I live (Canada) every bus I have seen or driven had a fast idle toggle, and it's very useful. Also better if the bus stays at idle for several minutes it's less harsh on a diesel engine to run it at fast idle

  • It depends on the operator. Some have dedicated power and air lines to each parking spot at the depot to minimise problems with flat batteries and empty air tanks. Others just use some luck and the time to do a pre-service check of the bus to get the engine and air pressure up. At least, that's the way it's done in Vienna.
