Station coverage of multitile buildings

[Nil Einne]

According to http://www.simutrans-tips.com/en/tutorials/passenger_2.php you need to cover all tiles of multi-tile buildings to get all the passengers, except for industries. However it also gives an example of a tourist attraction but says "Image: Tourist attraction (Bad example!)" but I don't get why it's a bad example since a tourist attraction is not an industry and does therefore need all tile coverage supported also by http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=2881.0. Perhaps it means it's an example of what not to do.

But is the industries part right? I noticed in the industries I have put a stop near it says connected stops which would concur with the idea industries are special and you only need one tile to have full passenger coverage.

And everything else you need all tiles, including cityhalls and stuff?

Hello Nil Einne.  Welcome to the forum.

You understand the same way as I do.  For industry workers you need only cover one tile of the industry..but for tourist attractions and town halls etc..you need to cover all tiles to obtain maximum passenger coverage.

The image you refer to is of a part covered tourist attraction. Its making the point that its not all covered by the bus stop...ie of how not to do it...(of bad play)  Still... 50% of those passengers is better than none.
