Bus Manager 26 changes
New features:
Sandbox mode - choose Normal or Sandbox when starting a new game; in Sandbox everything is free (buses, zones, stops, upgrades, events, etc.)
--> Sandbox saves don’t count toward the leaderboard
Leaderboard - compare your stats with other players (Steam)
Bulk management - buy, remove, repair, refuel, sell and more in batches (×1 / ×2 / ×5 / ×10) from the shop, routes, fleet, garage, and rentals
Live passenger counter under the top toolbar
Improvements:
Cleaner Settings screen (Save / Save & Exit, better checkboxes)
Main menu UI refresh- Tooltips on in-game icons
Performance optimizations for large fleets — smoother gameplay and map when you have many buses and passengers
On large maps, buses are shown in a simplified view (line badges instead of every bus) to reduce lag
Fleet shop stays open after a purchase
Routes tab: only the ⚙ icon opens full line details
Buy buses directly from the Routes tab without leaving the page
Bug fixes:
Game could freeze with very large fleets (hundreds of buses / thousands of passengers)
Map lag with huge numbers of buses on screen
Sandbox games no longer affect leaderboard rankings
