Hi, I have few questions/suggestions, but lets start with this one. When you create a line and then add new vehicle the vehicle starts on the first stop, but it doesnt collect any people from it. Why?
In Traffic Giant you could choose the starting point, which was great (except the fact that every time you changed it all passangers waiting dissappeared).

And second thing is that, sometimes they dont even start at first stop, but appears in some random place (most of the time, after second or third stop). How is that? :)

It's a bit annoying when you have 100+ super pissed of passengers waiting and they don't even get picked up. This need to be changed, agreed.
In your second question, do you mean when adding multiple vehicle to existing line?
If you do, the game do spread vehicles evenly trough out the line for even distribution, which is good in terms of logistics.

Oh right, that is great then, but I don't think it really does work perfect. I have a bus line (mission 1) from west Berlin to east basically with over 20 buses now and they all start at the same point. Trams did start at various point, which you just explained why, but my buses almost always start at the same point (maybe except one or two).

About the first pick, it's sad and I hope a patch will correct it.
A small way around is to start the line one stop where you don't wait many people and before a place you'll expect people to come.

(this is demo version, don't know about release) About the starting station, when you add a vehicle, it checks if there is no problem adding one there (vehicle/passenger in the way or that can't stop in time). If it can't put the vehicle there, it will do the test at next station and so on.
