The only variance you see is the styling, the body layout (low-floor/high-floor layout, or maybe even double decker or bendy), or different drivetrain options such as a hydrogen, hybrid or trolleybus system, all of which could be reasonably retrofitted onto the existing wentward.Įven looking at smaller front-engine busses, such as a Toyota coaster or ford econoline schoolbus, all of the variance in the driving experience (petrol or diesel, RWD or 4WD, open top tourist busses) can all already be filled by just building it on an H-series platform.Ĭompare these to even just 'sports cars', which can be FWD, RWD, or AWD, can have the engine in the front or back, can be set up for high speed or low speed handling, and can be something cheap, or something more upmarket and expensive.

A behemoth double decker/coach bus would be much different in both mechanics and use case than the DT40L, and just like in the automotive sector there has been some really quirky designs over the years if the team ever wanted to go that route.Ĭlick to expand.yes there are a lot of 'cars', but there is a lot of variance in the design and mechanical layout of 'cars'.īut in the entire world of fullsize buses like the wentward, throughout the last 40 years, pretty much all of them have an RR mounted engine, solid axles, air suspension, and space-frame style construction, all of which is exactly the same as the DT40L. Where I think this all gets really interesting is the bigger stuff and the weirder stuff. Not exactly a justifiable recourse to content ratio there.Īn articulated bus could be made from the DT40L (and there was the old UV bits for one in game). I fully expect the van bus niche to be filled with the next phase of the H-Series remaster.Ī high-floor city bus would just be a slightly taller DT40L. Also, a second option for bus routes that's a different size class would be appreciated. We really do need a large vehicle that would be at home on figure 8 race. One of these would be pretty good for gameplay as they are common sights as cheap work trucks and at local tracks for demo derbies, oval races, etc. It has all the additions of a real school bus check the features below.While I have to agree a Euro counterpart to the Wentward isn't really a topic for the foreseeable future, there are other options that could serve the game well.Ī truck/van based bus would of course be fairly low on dev recourses compared to a dedicated city bus, so I don't see any reason to object to one of those on an existing platform.

This is the Dansworth Yellow American School Bus, its built on the T-75 frame, its more powerful than it looks, it can haul up to 15 tons of additional weight.
