Bus Terminus

A bus terminus is a designated place where a bus starts or ends its scheduled route. It can also be the first stop for the route. Depending on the map and location, the terminus can be a road-side bus stop, closed road, or inside a bus terminal.

Design
Bus termini have different designs, given their variety of purposes. In Proton Bus Simulator, any given bus stop may act as a bu terminus if assigned. They may be sheltered, platformed, signed, or nothing at all.

Bus termini are usually used for longer boarding and alighting for a bus, as well as parked breaks for drivers. A stop used for a terminus is usually settled in a point where little traffic will pass throug, and a place where the bus can park without disturbing the traffic. Termini holding more routes or routes with higher frequency of departure are usually larger, in order to withold a larger amount of parked buses.

Some routes, for example the 100, use two stops as their terminus. One to allow passenger alighting and one for passenger boarding. Other routes may use the same bus stop to drop and pick passengers.

On some routes in proton bus simulator, there is signified with a red P mark in a circle hovering over the terminating stop and the GPS line will end. Despite yellow arrows may look the same as the red P, they do not necessarily indicate the end of a route.

Behaviour
All passengers will automatically alight when the bus arrives at the certain area of the terminus. For Proton Bus Simulator Road, passengers will alight at bus terminus only, and all onboard passengers will alight regardless the stop is the end of route or not. This is due to the setting of coach terminals.

In map mod, there are options to assign certain bus stops as First Stop or Last Stop  separately. This allows map makers to assign separated pick up and drop off points. However, in theory, a driver may drop passengers indicated to alight at any random point on map. So the function of last stop is to force deboard all passengers, instead of simply allows drop off.
