Bus Simulator 27 Hotfix 1.14 Resolves Crashes and AI Traffic Bugs
Bus Simulator 27 hotfix 1.14 fixes PC access violation crashes, stops AI buses from getting stuck in depots, and resolves passenger display issues.
Bus Simulator 27 releases hotfix 1.14, targeting critical stability problems, multiplayer loading screens, and AI bus depot behaviors.
Stability and Performance
The update resolves a PC access violation crash, a gameplay crash tied to high NPC counts, and adds safeguards against save-related crashes. Loading a savegame for the first time after installing the update may take longer than usual.
Traffic and Bus Physics
AI cars and buses colliding with the player bus are improved. AI buses assigned to lines now correctly leave the depot instead of staying stuck, and buses no longer shake while stationary. All buses can handle T1 narrow turns, and buses struggle less when driving up inclines. Vehicle fixes address a non-functional handbrake on the Ebusco 2.2 18m, missing needle animations on the Hess Light Tram 10, ignition delays, and blurry dashboards from update 1.12.
Multiplayer and Passengers
Multiplayer fixes eliminate the grey loading screen that appeared after being kicked from a session. Passengers no longer remain visibly seated for clients after leaving a bus, and pedestrians who join a session while already inside a bus now render correctly. Route penalties now apply correctly upon route completion, and passengers stop walking past the driver before returning to buy tickets.
UI and Management
Loading-screen readability is improved. The Edit this line option no longer remains available when it should be disabled, and the Rewards widget now appears correctly in management screens. A bug where missions remained unfinished despite showing full 3.0 progress is fixed, and the camera no longer stays lowered after skipping time inside an AI-controlled bus.
Why this patch matters
Hotfix 1.14 irons out crucial crash vulnerabilities and clears up persistent AI and multiplayer display bugs.
