Title: Schedule length in time units.
Post by: inkelyad on July 02, 2011, 11:44:25 PM

Right now I am writing small patch: convoys will calculate how much time it take to make full schedule and return to first stop.
But.. How it is called? Round-trip time?

If I understood inkelyad right, then trip total time would be the best. Trip total time is possible also for no-cyclic (no-round) orders.

I don't think so. Your idea would fit better to case if trip order could be set exactly - station by station.

I think that "round trip time" is the best designation, as the phrase "round trip" is used in English even if the journey is not actually circular.

Another vote for 'round-trip time' from me! This will be a very useful feature.
