Regression: passengers are not boarding

Thanks for the previous help!

I saved my Simutrans pak128 world in V123, and opened it in the new version 124.1.
There are many small changes, which I appreciate, but there are also regressions:

See screenshot.
There are 4 windows open from planes that are waiting for passengers to board at the shown station. My planes fly to and fro one other destination, and wait for to be filled 50%.
The station window shows that there are plenty of passengers waiting for the destinations of the 4 planes, but they are not boarding.
This did not happen in V123, I see this only now in V124.1.

I have one theory about this problem:
Previously, there was a train going to these destinations only, which was severely overcrowded. So, I recently added these airlines 3417 and 3418. But the 3226 and 3227 exist already a lot longer.
In V123, once the first passenger discovers that there is now an additional way to get to the destination, all passengers follow immediately.
In V124, (I guess) only newly arrived passengers look to find a way to get to the destination, and board the waiting planes, the rest still wait for the train.

This is the train parallel with airline 3417 - see screenshot.

There are more than one here. But first check, if
1) not "avoid_overcrowding" is on
2) not "no_routing_over_overcrowded" is on
If both are off, I would need a savegame to debug.

See the attached routing settings.


BTW, these settings are only visible in the menus if I do "new game" - so I hope the values are then still correct...
PS: I guess this is not the correct way - since the "station_coverage", I usually set to 4, and it is 2 in the screenshot.

The save file is 30MiB, I shared it here: https://nextcloud.vanderwulp.be/index.php/s/BHAEPxzNZddqdNE - I hope this works...

I observe similar behavior since the V124 update, as you know Prissi.
Consider comparing my bug report as well.

I have tracked down the cause, and hacked up a fix that confirms, but would like to try a get something cleaner before committing. Debugging also reveals more strange behaviour in this area that needs investigating first...

EDIT: r11287 should fix.

Thank you, this was well hidden. Seems like a 124.1.1 is due soon. (As soon as some more paks have adopted the new buttons, I guess.)

Just save some tiny fix so we can have 124.1.1.1 please :D

I like it, this is how the pak64 tutorial is updated, this time I did fix the version comparator (you can ask @roboron about it hehehehe). ;D

Yes!
A new release would help a lot.
Thanks.
