Feature Request: Add Passenger-Kilometres & Transport Density to Line Statistics Thank you for creating such an incredible transit sandbox. As a hardcore railway enthusiast, I’d love to suggest two key metrics that would significantly enhance the management and auditing depth of the game, inspired by real-world, especially Japanese railway standards (JR and Major Private Railways). Right now we only get basic boarding numbers and total trip counts, which don’t paint the full picture of how efficiently our lines are actually running. Adding these two stats would let us properly audit and fine-tune our networks with real transit logic: 1. Transport Density (延日キロ / Passenger Density per KM) • Formula: Total Passenger-Kilometers ÷ (Line Length × Period Days) • Why it’s needed: Total boarding numbers can be misleading. A line with 50,000 riders on a 5km stretch is vastly different from 50,000 riders on a 50km stretch. • In-game benefit: This gives us a "Heat Map" in data form. It tells us exactly how "saturated" the tracks are. It’s the ultimate metric used by the Japanese government to decide whether a line should be upgraded to a metro, or unfortunately, decommissioned. 2. Total Passenger-Kilometers (旅客人キロ) • Formula: Σ (Number of Passengers × Distance Each Passenger Traveled) • Why it’s needed: This represents the actual "workload" or "output" of the line. Boarding counts don't reflect whether people are taking short hops or long-haul commutes. • In-game benefit: This would help players understand their revenue better (especially for distance-based fares) and help calculate the "Load Factor" of the rolling stock. Why these fit NIMBY Rails? NIMBY Rails is a 1:1 scale simulation. These metrics are the industry standard for 1:1 scale railway accounting. It would be amazing to see a "Daily Average Transport Density" column in the Line or Station stats window. Overall, thank you for considering this. Keep up the great work.
If you have always wanted to create a multiple cities connecting railnetwork, and if you wanted to even build a fully realistic tram line and some commuter rails in said cities, and if you want to create schedules for your trains to make them drive into a depot at night, then this game is for you. What I find most impressive. The developer realy knows what he is doing. I have around 1200 trains on my current map. Performance issues are nonexistent. Big thanks to the dude programing this game. It shows that he is focusing on implenting features with as little impact on performance as possible.
