I'm calling this 1.5 now. Too much is being added for me to be able to call this a patch, so we're going all in with this one. Here's the usual list of additions and changes in test build, and also some upcoming plans I'd like to add.
I'm going to start providing the test build link in these posts since the old link is pretty buried under updates. The current test build can be accessed with this link. Make sure you copy the entire link!

I am currently considering on whether or not I should change the way Karol and Virus function to the new system that the Passengers use to talk. There are a bunch of pro's and con's to this, and I figured this would be a good first poll to put out.
I made this little sheet below with the pro's and con's of both from my perspective. I personally would like to change it, but I want to get more opinions on it; because it might be more work in the long run....

I'm about to scrap calling this 1.4.2 and just calling it 1.5 at this rate. We'll see what else gets added before I make that call.
Bus To Nowhere 1.4.2 Changelog:
- You will now be able to find/unlock new passengers.
- The passengers are from all around, some originating from locations the bus itself has travelled and others just being random stuff. You can listen to their tales and woes if you're nearby.
- Currently 3 passengers are implemented...

Update Log: 2022-05-04
I've mostly been trying to finish up on a lot of the WIP stuff so that I can hopefully get the new update out sooner rather than later. I give it another month or so at the most. I've also been playing around with more concept idea's which I'll talk about another time once I have more to show.
The test build has also been updated with the newest stuff, feel free to test!
Also, I'm feeling a bit better.

I spent some of today working on the bus, so heres some bus stuff.
I also might have covid, which kinda sucks.
Bus To Nowhere 1.4.2 Changelog:
- Added new "low quality" lighting mode, which reduces realtime lights and removes shadows. Looking to add one for post processing/world overlays as well. Currently a bit buggy, but overall works aside.
- Added a master-only button to turn events off for the ins...

Update Log: 2022-05-02
It's been awhile. I have taken a break from the bus for a bit to have some me time and to work on my other worlds to avoid complete burn-out. Currently have been playing with synced Nav Agents (AI) and was playing around with a few world idea's; so I thought I'd share them.
For those curious about the new plushies, they are still being added to the bus, so don't worry. They will appear in the public build whenever I finish the bus update.

Update Log: 2022-04-25
5 days since the big update and a patch; and I'm already working on another content update. It will not be as big as 1.4 was; so it will instead be released as a patch.
No release date for this, but I don't think it'll take 3 months like the last update. I'm done with finals, so I have a lot more time to work on this.

First patch (1.41) releasing sometime this weekend hopefully, likely Saturday or Sunday depending if I can find a time where nobody is in any instances.
Bus To Nowhere 1.41 Changelog:
- Lightning is now more common in the Bridge Biome (1/3) to help with getting lightning faster; as I understand the pain of waiting 1000 miles for lighting to strike.
- "The Sweepers" can now appear in Marsh, Roofed Forest, or ...

Earlier today, or a few hours ago actually I released the update. I'm currently working on a small update to add and balance a few more small things, which will be version 1.41, I suppose. Unsure when it will release, but shouldn't be more then a few days; at most releasing whenever I remove the sticky note
The list of changes are below.

- Some more Bus Synchronizations have been added to add to the variety and widen the choice range, as well as accessibility. As of writing, there are 3 new synchronizations, found by using the following items: Red Bus Toy, Virus Head, and the charged Ukulele.

3 days now. Maybe sooner. Looks like new WhiteNight will be released along with this update.
Bus To Nowhere 1.4 Changelog:
- Increased length of the Storybook event, considering it is one of the most popular.
- Potentially fixed WhiteNight Clock not syncing properly between master and clients. Regardless, any further desyncs of the clock are purely visual and should not effect the outcome of the fight, as on...

Bus To Nowhere 1.4 Changelog:
- New WhiteNight fight implemented in the test build. Still very WIP and probably very broken, but should function at least enough for it to be playable. Will be reverted if unfinished by release or the file size becomes too large. (WhiteNight's death animation is currently bugged, but will still function.)

Update Log: 2022-04-9
Okay, last addition, I swear. This is mostly WhiteNight plans that I would like to complete either before release, or as a small update after release. The main reason for this is that WhiteNight is pretty boring compared to Apocalypse Bird, so I hope to make the encounters more engaging.
With most of the major things fixed that I am aware of; unless I find more cursed things I need to fix, I hope to release the update on the 20th

There has not been much outside of various testing and fixes, which I guess I can list below to show that I'm working. The update will hopefully come out very soon; but I continue to be surprised by really dumb things that I am amazed that I didn't notice.
Bus To Nowhere 1.4 Changelog:
- Killing Virus no longer kills Karol.
- The "00" Personalized events no longer trigger when the bus script fails to load.

- This long ugly link should let you access a friends+ version of the current debug build of Bus To Nowhere. You may bring people along as well.
- This build will likely have bugs; but also have new content mentioned in update logs.
- Note I will not update the world while people are in it, as there is a desync issue for late joiners if they join an old instance of the world. This also means I cannot test new things if people are in the world, so please ride sparingly. ...

Two updates in one week? Wild. I think these will be the last major additions. Anything ahead of now will be polishing and bug fixes before public release.

This log is mainly additions to help with bad RNG.
Bus To Nowhere 1.4 Changelog:
- Drivers can now choose between 3 random destinations when nearing the end of a biome. The biome name will only be displayed if the bus has previously visited it before. This will hopefully make finding previously visited locations easier, and will also help discover new ones. It will hopefully also make driving more entertaining.

Well, I said at least a post a week. So I guess I can post about the plans for Bus To Nowhere.
-- A Small Update: 1.33 --
A small update will likely be pushed at some point to fix a major bug I recently discovered; as well as to remove a certain song from the radio, as it is not globally available and bricks the radio whenever it plays.
I'll get to pushing this eventually.
-- The Juicy Stuff: 1.4 --

A simple script I use for pretty much every item in my worlds.
A simple cleaned up version of my all-in-one script I use for pretty much every single interactable item in my world. This requires VRCSDK3 & UdonSharp to work.
It is synced across all clients and supports things like playing particles or sounds on use. You can also trigger Animator Triggers on it. If you're better at writing code, feel free to improve upon it. idk what im doing tbh lol.
