Buses
Ikarus
Ikarus EAG 395
The bus was never fully released so there are few bugs, like:
- There is no ticket printer and cash desk (so make sure to have ticket selling on simple (with simple you can use keyboard shortcuts) or off).
Dashboard buttons we've fiqured out
This is manual gearboxed bus. If you want to have simpler logic: just pressing gear keys, no clutch, enable following setting in OMSI:
By default, manual gear buttons in OMSI are:
N, R, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (numbers in the number row, not numpad), Tab is clutch if you didn't enable automatic clutch

QUICK START
Select the manufacturer „MAN Lions Intercity LE“ when placing the vehicle. Here you can now select one of the buses supplied in the AddOn under Type.
Start the electrical system [E] and the motor [M]. Select a gear [D] and release the parking brake [.]. Please note, the brake must be applied to engage a gear. Depending on the pressure in the system, the bus will now start rolling and you can accelerate and steer it.
At night, you should activate the headlights [L] and illuminate the interior [8] [9]. If passengers are to board the bus, you need to set destination signs that passengers „know“ at each stop. This is done in the printer setting menu.

Performance
This is quite a complex addon, and we are by no means professionals. Some scripts could have been written better, more optimized. Also remember, that OMSI was designed to handle simple, old fashioned buses, with less complex systems, and less electronics. You may need to lower your settings in order to reach your usual FPS on heavier maps with this bus.
First drive
After installing, don't forget to copy your favourite maps' .hof files and Linienlisten .jpg files to the buses corresponding folders.
When you open OMSI, you will find the bus under the manufacturer Volvo, with the two subtypes listed.
WARNING
Unless you have an SSD drive, the bus can take up to 1-2 minutes to show up. It may seem that OMSI crashed, so just be patient and wait for a bit. After selecting the bus, it will again take some time for OMSI to load in all the scripts/textures and to place the bus.
After the bus was placed, hit the Electricity On/Off key ('E' by default) once to switch on the main electronics.
If you selected the Ticketbox version, it will fire up and ask for a driver ID and PIN.
The default ID is 2512, PIN is 2208, see the modding section on how to change these.
Press the Electricity On/Off key one more time, and the on-board computer will boot up, performing a selftest. If there is not enough air pressure, you will hear a continous warning sound. After the test is completed, pressing and holding the Electricity On/Off key will start the engine (you may need to blip the gas a bit while starting). Now that the engine is running, the air pressure will start to build up and the warning sound - if it was present before - will stop. While applying full pressure on

Heating panel
The heating control takes place here as follows.
The heating control unit is switched on with the button (1).
With (2) the auxiliary heating could be activated.
(3) activates the circulating air.
With (4) and (5) the blower level is set. The fan cools the bus down a bit. (Does not have the effect of air conditioning!)
Use (6) and (7) to set a temperature between 20 and 24 degrees Celsius, to which the bus heats up if the temperature is below the set number of degrees.
In the fast bus variant, the bus is cooled down to the temperature, in the normal lack of air conditioning not.
Attention: Blower and heater can not run at the same time!
Ticket printer / IBIS
As a ticket printer, as mentioned, the Almex Optima CL is installed.
Most features of the printer are self-explanatory, so here's just the essentials.
The registration takes place with the following data:
Fahrernummer: 6924
Pin: 5173The line input is in the following format:
Line number: 07600
Journey number (= route): 01/02 etc.
(Example here is the line 76 from Grundorf, but I think it's self-explanatory.)
Points of interest can be selected by clicking in the various menus.
A destination input (ziel) is not possible, you need to use the OMSI Alt destination tool.
MAN Lion's City A20 (V3D)
Getting started
To start the bus press E to enable the electrics and then hold M to start the engine. It won’t
start if the gearbox is in any other gear apart from neutral (The display will notify you). Either
press D or rotate the gear selector to ‘drive’ (With brake pedal pressed) and release the
handbrake on your left hand side (Or with . ) To open and close the doors press - for the front
and = for the rear. The stop-brake is not required in this add-on for the doors to operate.
NB. Take a look at the dashboard guide (Below) to help you navigate the various buttons.
Using the ticket machine
It’s very easy use without programming any timetabled journeys. If you are at a stop and
front door is open you will be shown the ticket menu by default. Choose an appropriate ticket
and print!
If you wish to see the next stops on your journey then simply program in your route and
journey information from the main menu using the LINE/COURSE (eg. 07600) and ROUTE
(eg. 1) options. Automatic announcements will only play if you are running to timetable.
A LAWO information display is installed in the saloon and will echo the next stops on your
timetabled journey.
Dashboard Guide
Known problems
There are some issues you may experience during the course of play that are expected due
to the nature of the game or the limitations of my expertise in scripting. Some of those are
listed below:
- Gear display freezes or disappears when prompted with an error, such as F uel Low.
A work around is to press the Cycle Error Messages button until it clears, fill tank with
fuel or use the game menu to repair the bus. - Snow flake icon doesn’t go when electrics are turned off.
- The outside body textures appear white or black. It seems you may have low
graphics memory. Re-start the game and/or install the 4Gb patch to increase
available memory to OMSI2 - Low FPS once the bus is loaded. I have played many hours in OMSI2 and rarely get
below 30fps. If I do it’s usually the fault of the game and a full game re-install usually
fixes the issue. Having said that I do have a mid-range gaming setup but it may
perform poorly on low-end systems, such as laptops with integrated graphics cards.
MAN Lion's City A21/A37 (V3D)
General operation
Once your bus has loaded you can go ahead and press 'E' to turn on the
electrics and then 'M' to start the engine. Engage first gear by pressing 'D',
remember to press down on the foot-brake first or it won't engage. Most other
controls are standard or as mapped on your particular installation but further
information can be found by referring to your OMSI2 manual.
Once you're moving I'm sure you'd like to pick up some passengers but for
realism there a few things you might like to check out first.
Depending on the time of day and year you should set the air conditioning to
either auto for cooling or fan for gentle heating. The Spheros controller is
located above your head and provides you with cabin temperature display. Be
sure to keep an eye on it so your customers don't complain.
You'll need to light the passenger saloon, keys 8 and 9 should work by
default, but you can also use the buttons on the dashboard.
Doors can be operated by pressing minus for the front and F12 for the rear if
required (These doors operate automatically when passengers want to
leave). Remember to turn on the bus-stop brake first or the doors won't work.
Use the Backspace key or the button on the dashboard with H in a circle.
Please note that certain buttons are obscured by the steering wheel, click the
steering column with the mouse and the wheel will vanish. Click once again to
bring it back.
To start your first route you'll need to set the display on the iBIS controller,
also located above your head. First click Line and enter 07600 (Using
Grundorf route 76 as the journey) and click Enter. Next you need the journey
number. Click Route and enter either 1 or 2 depending on your direction and
once again click enter. You should see the information on your matrix display
now and passengers will want to hopefully board your bus.

How to start the bus?
1. Turn on the electrics (default: “E” or use your mouse on the key)
2. Insert the card in the tachometer. It is located under the door switches. A simple click will do.
3. Wait for the glow plugs to heat up (heating up is indicated by a symbol lighting up on the main panel, between the gauges)
4. Start the engine (Default: “M” or use the switch)
5. If the air pressure is too low, wait for a bit, you might as well rev the engine for a while.
6. Deactivate the parking brake.
7. Fasten your seatbelt by clicking on the buckle on the upper left side of the driver’s seat! You can unbuckle it by pressing the button on the lower right side of the driver.
8. Put on the 1st gear and you’re ready to go!
Known issues
1. The mirrors may lag a bit, because the rearview camera requires a huge radius to render correctly. If you want them to work smoothly, you can delete the last [add_camera_reflexion_2] entry in the *.bus file, but you won’t be able to use the rearview camera.
2. In MAN Lion’s Coach L, the camera sometimes doesn’t render the body of the bus. This is a limitation of the game, and unfortunately, there’s nothing I can do about it
3. If you’re experiencing lagging, try to decrease the size of some of the textures, especially interior.tga. Remember though to maintain dimensions ratio and use size that is a square of two (2048, 1024, 512, etc.)
4. On steep inclines you might experience some lagging of the engine. I recommend turning off ASR and changing gears at higher RPM, and you should be fine.
5. If you’re having trouble with putting the bus in gear, meaning that when you engage the 1st gear and the symbol on the main display flashes for a brief moment and then immediately turns to neutral again you need to go to “Inputs/gamectrler.cfg” and check if any other steering wheel aside from yours is activated. Just look for a "1" under the name and change it to “0”.

Sometimes the game bugs out and you can't get the bus to move. In that case you need to de-spawn the bus and spawn in again through the OMSI ingame menu (you won't get any penalty in BCS for this)
