Unfortunately at the moment, all info I have about this amazing map is severely limited, but as I collect new data this guide will be updated. Any extra info you can in the comments would be extremely helpful
소개
The Bus to Nowhere is a VRChat world created by user Beyond. This world consists of a maximum of 20 players on a moving interactive “time bus” that travels in between different Biomes, despite the seemingly abstract and random nature of this world there are many unmarked objectives players can complete and discover, making this place far more than just a hangout spot!
1st Floor
The first floor is standard issue for a bus, the dash of the vehicle has HUD indicators for the driver/passengers that gives information on the following:
- The Bus speed
- Time of day (in game)
- Current Biome/location
- Miles Traveled
- how many charged fuel cells are in the Time Bus Engine.
If there is a person in the driving seat, a Prompt will appear on the left side of them in front of the side window, this prompt will give the driver the choice to go to one of three randomly selected locations, locations highlighted as “????????” are locations not yet discovered.
If the driver does not pick a location then one will be chosen at random. Luckily the bus is fully autonomous and does not require a driver to venture to new locations! The Driver (or whoever is sitting in the driver’s seat) can also interact with the horn and the windshield wipers. Another important thing to note is that the speed of the bus jumps from 60mph to 78 mph as long as someone is sitting in the driver’s seat!
To the Right of the driver on the main dash is a standard radio, a digital list of passengers (players currently in the world) and three buttons that toggle the following:
- 등반 (VR only) [function unknown]
- Airtime [function unknown]
- 의자 [very self-explanatory]
To the immediate right of this all is a Ticket slot with a screen that gives an introduction to the map, along with a piece of paper on the windshield that details recent patch notes.
Above the windshield is a Ticker that displays messages from “local news networks” and other information directed towards passengers.
The door exiting the vehicle can be opened and closed directly, and in the event of an emergency you can find a functional fire extinguisher.
Behind the driver is an accessible phone that occasionally rings and receives random calls, messages received from this phone have ranged from Patrick Star asking “is this the Krusty Krab?” to creepy clown music and even someone reading out loud the wikipedia article for CBT.
Very close to the phone is a mounted Flatscreen TV that has multiple functions to it.
Clicking the screen directly turns the TV on and off,
pressing the blue button gives accessibility to a standard Video Player,
The mid Yellow button turns on the Location Tracker and shows what Locations have been previously encountered/discovered.
The Green button selects a random-pre-selected meme channel
(my favorite is the minecraft lava asmr).
Near the Video player control panel very close to the floor is a vent, this vent will give access to the Engine Room but at random moments is it available (debug panel in the Engine room suggests that this room is only accessible if the bus has stopped, but I was still able to access it while the bus was moving)
Above all the seats are luggage compartments that contain pre-set items that you can have fun with on the bus! the starting items are as follows:
Above the Driver’s Seat:
- Red coil that increases its holder’s movement speed
- 9mm pistol, never runs out of ammo
Above passenger seats:
- two confetti guns
- small scale replica of a red bus
- a skeleton’s horn
- Three digital firework sparklers
- Two adorable robot plushies
- a playable guitar
- a hammer for bonking
At the back of the bus is a set of stairs is a bathroom containing the following items:
- a broom
- a bucket
- cheezburger
- a spray bottle
- a smol fungus man
The Toilet itself can be used and Items can be flushed into it (objects flushed will eventually return!)
On the other side of the bus opposite to the bathroom is a Bullitin board and stairs leading towards the 2nd floor.
2nd 층
At the front of the Second Floor to the Right of the upper windshield are two buttons, One controls a Player exclusive Mirror while the second further back button controls
a global mirror.
There are two storage compartments near the upper windshield that contain the following:
- Rainbow Color Pencil
- a plate of cookies that infinitely respawn after getting eaten
- a Vineboom easter island head,
- Mar-Plush
- Blue coil (increases player jump height)
in one of the seats on the right side of the bus is also a box of infinitely spawning pizza.
Near the Stairs leading to the 1st Floor is a ladder that leads to the Roof, behind this ladder and a small crate is an empty Battery for the Time Bus Engine.
The Roof
The roof has multiple seats for passengers to enjoy the cold wind in their hair and lungs, the following ammeneties are also provided:
A miniature table with multiple color pencils, multiple erasers, and a functioning Simon Says toy, opposite to the small table is a minifridge containing an assortment of canned carbonated beverages.
Between the 3rd and 2nd seat on the Left hand side is a smart phone that only takes pictures. On the front left ridge is also two UI screens that display the current Location and in game time of day.
Engine Room
At the moment little is known about the Engine room and the strange bio-mass infecting the area, a nearby upgrade console has been overrun with unknown mass and the large tank-like device within the room requires three Fully Charged Batteries.
One is already located in this room fully charged, at the moment I have no clue how to charge the other two empty batteries, but I can still list off their locations in the battery section.
메모: DO NOT LOOK UP IN THIS ROOM. IT WILL KNOW THAT YOU KNOW.
You can also find a still beating heart in the center of this room!

배터리
Batteries are needed to fully power up and upgrade the Time bus.
Three Batteries can be found in the following area’s:
- Engine Room [Full Charge]
- 2nd Floor behind the ladder [No Charge]
- Specific Event [No Charge] at the bus stop with the purple soda machine, on the floor to the
Left of the Bench.
[보다 “이벤트’ section for more info!]
Unfortunately for now I have no idea how to Charge the other two Batteries, it also appears that you cannot bring items back and forth through the vent that leads to the
Engine Room in Desktop non-VR mode.
If you know how to charge the Batteries, please let me know so I can update this as soon as possible!
이벤트
Events are Random encounter style situations that frequently occur on the bus roughly every 6 min and 30 초, this is a log of encountered events we have documented
(Please note that some events can reoccur)
1. Machine that Know’s things:
A Bus stop with a machine that can scan any item you give it and give you the lore behind it,
2. Normal Bus Stop [중요한!]
This bus stop has a new purple soda you can grab for the bus along with the empty battery on the floor to the left of the bench, this battery is important and must always be brought onto the bus.
3. Power Loss
this one is pretty simple, the bus temporarily loses power and comes to a complete stop, use this time to stretch your legs and explore outside the bus!
4. Lock Down
alarms blare as large steel blast plates go over every window and exit to the vehicle! 괜찮아요, nothing bad will happen to you if you are locked out of the bus, we hope,
5. Stop Light.
another simple one, the bus stops for the light and waits until it turns green.
6. Another Bus!?
a different Time bus rolls up behind the current bus and tailgates allowing passengers to jump onto this new bus and explore!
on it’s first floor is a small blue replica of our current Time Bus and is considered a collectible, another odd thing to note about this bus is that the only seat in it is the toilet?
eventually the bus will pull into the other lane and speed past the other bus before vanishing.
7. MOTH GOD
This thing is probably a boss, I don’t think I killed it but I shot at it with the 9mm I found until it left, but while it lingered in front of the bus it hit us repeatedly with waves of red energy, I have been told by someone else that with the right tools it’s possible to kill this boss!
after it left though it left some sort of strange gothic clock on the inside of the bus near the door! [entry will need to be updated later]
8. Running in the 90’s
The bus speeds up extremely fast as everything changes colors and the intrumental to “running in the 90’s” plays loudly in the background, unfortunately the picture I took of this event is not conveyed well through a still image.
9. Roofed Forest Monsters
This event occurs only in the Roofed Forest Location.
The bus loses power and monsters among the woods with glowing red eyes slowly make their way to the door, just before they can reach for the entrance the bus regains power and speeds off!
10. The Cops
괜찮아요, the police car can never keep up with the full speed of the bus and we slowly lose it.
11. Flooding
the bus comes to a stop as it rains and it slowly floods all the way up to the roof of the bus! luckily you can’t drown in the water and it will eventually recede, allowing for us to continue the journey!
Found Easter Eggs
A list of Easter Eggs we Discovered so far:
1. Secret Message/Platform
Using a flying avatar and getting far in front of the bus you can find an invisible platform along with a cheeky message:
2. Imposter Vented
Occasionally while looking at the vent leading to the Engine Room, you can see a small red Among Us sussy backa walking through the vent
[need to obtain image of sus event later]
I figured out how to charge the batteries!
As far as I know the game contains two endings, but I only got one.
종결 #2 – Virus :
After repairing the Time Engine with 3 charged batteries (charge in the storm event, where you put them in the middle on the 3rd floor), You place a red robot head into the synchronisation device (Red robot head can be found on one of the bus stops in the grass behind the stop wall) and getting access to admin mode behind the engine. After pressing the button, the Bus lights on fire for 2 minutes before crashing and giving an end piece of the map, where you appear in some kind of void with the machine that tells you a lore of an item. In your crashed bus you find a mini pickable bus and put it into the machine to get an end lore of your bus.
