A big challenge in making a Trolley-bendy-bus was figuring out the physics of the bus as a whole; ROBLOX costraints proved to be quite reliable and I'm really satisfied with the final result: CAM Busotto 18 UL in action with a little focus on the costraints! #ROBLOXDev #ROBLOX

@KodiakIstintivo Grazie! Mi spiace solo che ci sto mettendo un'eternità ma con il lavoro e il fatto che sto sviluppando da solo vado parecchio a rilento. Spero in una prima e vera demo pubblica per quest'anno visto che sono a buon punto!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

Here's a first real demo of what I've been working on these holidays: Minimal HUD, Route System, Passenger AI.

Less visible: moving everything to module scripts and relying on client replication for anything that the server doesn't need to do for game optimization.

@gwmdennis Physics!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

Something i spent alot of time on was fine-tuning the suspension values. The end result, i believe, is very close to the real typical behavior of heavy vehicles' suspensions! #ROBLOX #ROBLOXDev

Given that I have 2 drive-able lines I have put scenery building on hold to focus on the gameplay. Hopefully a first test will be ready soon! Here's some rolling destination blinds. #ROBLOX #ROBLOXDev

Happy new year! Here's a bit of updates as I move forward with the tedious work of adding scenery to the map (It's a lot and it's quite boring at times). I included a little Route map that includes the last planned line.

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

Hey! Progress has halted for a little bit! This because next week I'm getting my Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering! After that I'll have the summer holidays available to push development for my game!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@glue_slurper Of course it will!

So far one of the more complex trolleybus intersection. Located in the city center it branches between the main station and the L-Shaped line that traverses the historical streets of the city. #ROBLOX #ROBLOXDev

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@Dkervellla Hard to estimate, I'd say the map itself is 70% done based on my pre-release target, but it's a good estimate for the rest of the game too!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@Dkervellla Thank you! I hope it's going to happen sooner than later!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@7valkio Thank you!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

Main Station Loop slowly coming to life! It will have 2 stalls for Trolleybuses and 2 for normal buses! Most of the lines will stop here!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

Lots and lots of scenery progress! As mentioned previously the map will be a collection of places from various cities from center and northern italy! #ROBLOX #ROBLOXDev

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@zxnearby The map is a mixture of italian cities!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

Finally got around to make some overhead wire switches! In the video one of the points where the trolleybus lines intersect. The switches for now are activated by the bus indicators! #ROBLOX #ROBLOXDev

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@vehiclesimlove1 Of course, at the moment it's still in development!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@David97901815 I was pretty surprised how well the constraints behave despite the complexity of the system, I'm also using them for the trolley pole mechanism!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@LuigiStreams @Roblox It's still in development!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

@GreenworksDev @7valkio Thank you, also just now I added a lighter engine buzzing that plays at lower speeds to have different sounds combination!

[ParallelDimension @RBLX_Parallel]

Here's a sound demo recorded from inside the Trolleybus! The recordings for acceleration and braking are dynamically played at a different timeposition each time you press W or S depending on the speed of the bus! #ROBLOX #ROBLOXDev
