Overall takeaway from this report is - ATS and ETS 2 are doing fairly well. BCS is still on stalemate, we ended our experiment, removed some maps and buses.
Bus Company Simulator
So, we stopped our experiment of raising the company and driver share due us seeing a lot of drivers resetting their careers (meaning they ran out of cash) and lot of new faces left immediately also due to this.
Thanks to that we have made some changes. Firstly we stopped extending the following map:
- Steinkirchen V2
- Städtereieck 21
- Del-Pest 5
- Belgrade
All of the maps listed above have earned us less than 5k in last 90 days (Städtereieck has earned 5.1k, but costs 24k per month to extend). I don't see a point for extending them for now.
Additionally I've started removing the buses when their maintenance cycle arrives that I haven't been used in the last 8 months - that's the amount of months I see on the scree at the time. Additionally if the bus is in a set, I do look the entire set usage instead. Buses removed are:
- GO 1223 Jelcz 120MM
As you can see, we actually did get a small profit in those 2 months by increasing the share but as I said, at least for now I reverted the change so we'll see what happens in December. Our company rating has dropped once again, seemingly the activity section.

ETS 2 & ATS
I would say both ETS 2 and ATS had steady activity the last 2 months.
