The mechanic called right above the ride is exactly 8-junction away, but I need to add more than 2 junctions to trigger the issue. At least this park clearly shows that height is ignored in distance calculations/estimations.

As I said, annoying but I don't think of them as "bugs". This particular instance there are no junctions for several tiles. In this case I don't think a screenshot or save would help show the problem, as this particular ride is underground and immediately under a path. The ride is fully accessible as peeps can entre and exit without a problem. It's something I've never noticed happen before. I appreciate the suggestions and the response, if I linked the park it may take a while for the problem to crop up, but I certainly can share the park. It's an observation tower named "Out of Darkness", under the mountain.  Just did a really quick comparison as an example of above and partly below ground. Doesn't really highlight what I was meaning though.   688807349_RockinRollercoasters.park

RCTObjectEditor123d, Pathmaker, Ridemaker. The object editor is still pretty functional. Pathmaker can be stubborn, and Ridemaker is full on hit or miss.

I would like to know if the developers have seen my suggestion and what they think about it. I know that they are very busy, but is there a way to send a message to them directly?
