What this mod does:
This mod adds new job generation scripts to the stations containing passenger yards. The new jobs run between passenger platforms at different cities and include 1 to 3 destination stops. All the new jobs are gated behind the new Passengers job license, which can be obtained from the Career Manager the same as other licenses.
Express jobs will by default pay half as much for the base wage, but if you complete the job under the time limit, you will be compensated the full 1. 5x wage you would with any other job (this is to simulate passengers desiring timely service). If you prefer the vanilla wage/bonus behavior, you can disable this new system under the mod settings menu.
Passengers board or disembark after you've come to a complete and final stop at the platform for at least 5 seconds. The platform signs will indicate that boarding or disembarking is underway. Once all the cars are loaded, a bell will sound indicating that you're clear to depart.
