    Heartline is an obvious answer, but very cliche, so I won't choose that. Honestly, I don't like the multidimensional coaster. I have no idea how to build an at least somewhat realistic multidimensional coaster. The thing that bugs me the most about it is that it cannot do sloped turns, not even unbanked ones. Add to that that it has a stupidly high nausea rating, and you have a bad coaster type on your hands.

    The only real multidimensional coaster put Arrow out of business, and it still wasn't that great... lol

  2. Been working on the park, albeit slowly. Here's another screen, showing the family suspended coaster Ferrite! It's based in one of the older buildings on the property, and zips through some of the ruins and around some of the other rides in the area.

  3. @Jochem, looks good to me. If you can get another barrel roll in on the way back to the station, that would be fun. I don't think its absolutely necessary though, the Immelmann and other barrel roll are pretty good as far as inversions go for a diver. The path out the back of the building is nice, because it will allow you/whoever to make some nice interaction of the path with the coaster, something I always try to add in.

  4. Built a launched coaster called Fenrir, after the mythical wolf who is foretold to kill Odin during Ragnarok. Station is themed after an old church (cause that's what I felt like building).

    Also changed my normal Arrow coaster into a shark themed coaster and renamed it Sharknado (sorry, I’ll change if I think of something better).

    Which server it is? It is on the master server list of servers?

    Anyway, here's my killer coaster, the Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma or DIPG for short. A killer coaster had to have a name of a killer (this hopefully will change sometime in the future). The looping coaster is always built on the Mass Destruction server, doing 10 laps with a launch speed of 922 km/h (573 mph). This iteration was built in the red zone of StuphChicken's Sandbox Server, and it's a LIM launched coaster because the looping coaster strangely isn't avalaible:

    I didn't know Premier made a Looping Extravaganza model! How cool!

  7. This is a bug, in that the scenario does not have the peep spawn point set. I've reported it on Github, see here:

    https://github.com/OpenRCT2/OpenRCT2/issues/7065

    If you want to fix it yourself, here are the steps. Enable cheats, and then from the cheats menu, enable sandbox mode.

    Then, open the map window, it should look like this.

    Great Wall of China 2018-01-20 22-13-49.png

    Click the peep button, and purple grid will show up. Note that there is no blue arrow on the entry path.

    Highlight the entry path as shown, make sure the arrow is pointing towards the park gate, then click.

    Highlighted portion of path should turn blue, and peeps should start entering the landscape.

  8. This is a fun topic, glad somebody bumped it!

    After a long gap of not playing RCT, I started playing back in 2015 as an escape from the everyday horrors of grad school. I discovered CSO at that time, and built a park using CSO and the 8-cars trainer. Unfortunately, my situation in grad school got worse, lost my funding, and had to find a full time job to support myself and my family. 

    Then comes Fall 2017, I'm finished with grad school and have a lot more time. I try to play RCT2, cannot figure out how to get it to work on Windows 10, and like @TCE, discovered OpenRCT2 in the process of Googling for solutions. Now, with most of the 8-cars functions built right in to OpenRCT2, its a no brainer for me.

    In my opinion it does. Spamming some scrubs and flower patches randomly doesn't get anywhere near how things look in real life, to just give an example. Behind everything you place, there should be a thought which either confirms or opposes the idea. To be fair, the new area you build looks quite empty, and doesn't seem like much effort was put in there at all. Try doing some more with the paths, fences and walls, to make it really look nice.

    I 100% agree with Broxzier on this. Go look at my recent post in Build Logs.... Those two screens combined took me into game year 50, and there's not much else in the park other than some layouts and basic planning. I'm not saying you need to place that level of effort in, but some more thought and planning goes a long way. Most players could do what you did last turn in less than 10 minutes, and you had the park for more than 24 hours.

    I don't want to sound overly harsh here, and I want you to keep building. Just think about things a little more, and put effort in. If you aren't feeling like playing or don't have any inspiration, there's no shame in dropping to the missed turn list and coming back when you're ready or have ideas you'd like to implement.

  10. Well all, after finishing up Knoebels, I've started my new project, entitled Bethlehem Steelworks. The basis of this park is the old Bethlehem Steel plant in Bethlehem, PA (near where I went to college). In reality, after the plant closed, developers built a concert stage and a casino on the property. My project will examine an alternate reality, where instead, an industrial-themed amusement park was constructed on the site. 

    This topic will serve as an update of my progress. Comments and criticisms are welcome as always!

    First attached image is the end of Steel Street, where a fountain showing the Bethlehem Steel logo is displayed. You can grab a bite to eat in one of the many restaurants, or you can pick up some souvenirs. The yellow coaster is called Austenite, and starts deep within the old blast furnances...

    Second image is another main plaza within the park, where you can take a ride on Riverhawk (the peepable Huss condor ride), grab a bit at the Riverside Cafe, or hop onto Martensite, an exciting floorless B&M.

  11. So I looked at the park and I have no idea what to add, so I'm moving myself to the missed list until some inspiration strikes.

    @Deurklink, time to put Harley Quinn in the park!

    @Jochem Any idea why the files you upload are missing the .sv6 extension?

    Probably having something to do with a dot in the file name and the way is computer/OS is deciphering it, right?

    I'm gonna wait and claim sometime tomorrow, unless missed queue people do. Go for it if you want to!
