Title: Passenger classes and road speeds in pak128 Japan
Post by: Antonin on May 14, 2026, 07:30:54 PM
I am once again playing around with pak128 Japan. Does anyone know why there are passenger classes (class 1 and class 2) and why roads only have a top speed of 30 km/hr, even when the start year is 2010?

I understand that pak128 Japan is not complete (there are very few buses and trucks available), but I wonder if anyone is trying to play it, and if so, do they have any tips?

Passenger classes is to try to give some semblance of different passenger types. Instead of mail there are 1st class passengers

Also Japan roads without center line are max speed 30 and with max speed 60 km/h (in gray theory at least). Inofficially, you are not fined unless 30 km/h faster than indicated ... (at least they told that in driving school to my daughter.)

you can define intercity_road and city_road in simuconf.tab.
if you want to update default intercity road, please write this in pak128.Japan/simuconf.tab

In addition, today's speed limit of japanese intercity road (not Highway) is usually 60km/h.
intercity_road[0] = douro030,0,1960
intercity_road[1] = douro060,1960,2500
