Vanilla capacities

Article verified: June 2019

The table below shows the capacities of various types of vehicle from the base game.

Why is this important?

Vehicles with significantly larger capacities will confuse the AI and cause problems.

Your hearse has capacity of 10, and there are 100 dead people:

• AI sends out 10 hearses, each of them visit 10 buildings

Your hearse has capacity of 100, and there are 100 dead people:

• AI sends out 1 hearse, and it has to visit 100 buildings!!

Ramping up capacity is generally a stupid idea. :)

Also, there are issues with public transport vehicles too - if their capacity is too big, the AI gets "stuck" on the boarding phase.

So please try and keep vehicle capacities similar to the vanilla vehicles...

Capacities

For anything not listed here, you can usually work it out using Advanced Vehicle Options mod, or, for buildings, Customize It! mod.
