Overusage

[kingmadmushroom 0]

What are the exact effects of station ovwerusage (ie. +100% on rail/mono/sub station)

is it just a longer commute or are there other effects.

I also want to know how to sort this problem out. I have usage on one of my mono staions of 347% (serious)

This is what it probably looks like:

But really, I'm not sure if that delays commute times, but it does mean a lot of fare money for you!

No. Fares are based on the distance that sims travel using mass-transit, not on station use. Basically, it's free to get on a bus or train, but you have to pay for every 16 meters (1 tile) you travel.

I don't think station congestion has much affect until it reaches around 500%. After that, it seems to prevent more sims from getting on, so will lead to job losses or high commute times.

so i take it this station must be at a stand still, 65535 pedestrians also use the avenue connection, pretty busy at rush hour

Bones: Not directly based on one station, of course. High usage still means good money.

Gridlock: Your name says it all. Nice.
