  1. "You silly pig-dog I shall taunt you another time". RCT is not real life. All Arrow and TOGO corkscrew/looping coasters use banked sloped turns: not in RCT. Arrow suspended coasters, after Arrow apprehended and fixed the mistake, made sure that all turns use banked track: not in RCT. For some weird reason Chris Sawyer decided that he just plain hated TOGO: RCT's versions of TOGO coasters are horrible; horrifically unrealistic. That last, while it's a 'dig' at Chris Sawyer's dispositions, does not disqualify RCT as being, globally, one of the most-beloved games ever devised. One of his dispositions that I will not dispute is that coasters capable of deploying "zero-G" elements do not earn Air-Time, because that would be too-readily-exploitable: the means of that computer game disposition resides in yes/no lap-bar; Twister v. Hyper-Twister. Above, I linked a Reddit post that demonstrates the abuse. Beg for more, pillock. Yes, you are the biggest asshole on the planet. Typhoon
  2. That's asinine: they shouldn't have lap-bars, you cunt. Twister v. Hyper Twister. Crawl back into your Mom's basement: stop being the world's biggest asshole. I did warn you. Twat. Typhoon
  3. This is what I do: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_vapor_deposition This style of thing is too complex for basic PLCs: two of our reactors run on modified Win95, one on modified XP; our best reactor, manufactured by PLATIT, is the sexiest creature in the entire universe. I make sure nothing f**ks up, including climbing into the machine, detaching wires in order to 'hot-wire' it into life (obviously, only when it has failed). The lab is air-gapped but I can access all machines, remotely, through some devious method that I devised. ExCrafty, again, thank you: you remain a kind and honest person. I'm not the best, nor the most-sensibly temperamental candidate for inclusion in the Development Team. Oh, I gave you a like because you were simply being you and I respect that. Typhoon
  4. I'm glad I helped. Oh, I gave your thanks a 'like' because it's improved my mood: another thread has made me terrifically angry and my responses there are full of wrath. It's nice to be nice to people. I'm glad I helped you. Typhoon
  5. The established premises of the game include the disposition that roller coasters capable of deploying "zero-G" elements do not have lap-bar restraints and do not earn the Air-time bonus. A year ago I pointed to Twister v. Hyper-Twister: the evidence and, hence, my argument remains absolutely indisputable. Precisely what style of retard are you, or has Medicine/Psychology entirely given-up and thrown-in the towel? I could have sign-languaged this to Koko, the gorilla, and received acknowledgment but you, again, want to dance me around the May-pole. Back to Mom's basement, troll. Here's a line from a Monty Python movie:: "Go away you silly pig-dog or I shall taunt you another time". I'm daring you to provoke me again. Twat. Typhoon
  6. Plural v. Singular, f**ktwat. The 1st sentence of your post, before you even completed it, is something I'm tearing apart. I can't believe you're such a pillock excepting, only, that you actually f**king prove it. BTW, I'm not done with you; hahaha, wait for it ... um, naturally, in your Mom's basement. Oh ho ho, please wait for it again. Mike-drop. Typhoon
  7. Please, understand me: I do want to help. If a train is moving too fast it will "plow through" any Block. So, modify your trackitecture. Typhoon.
  8. I'll thank you for your kindness and for your respect. I speak in English. Typhoon.
  9. Hi. I'll link something from almost a month ago. Oh, I discovered it when it was fresh, but a certain someone's deliberate pretense of absolute obtuseness has left me so mad that, only now, have I found the resolve to make an additional assay. So the genie is out of the bottle. Folks are making new Scenarios with OpenRCT2; IMHO, the established premises of the game should be remembered and respected; Chris Sawyer's creation should not be denatured. To "Extreme with numbers to make it seem like I don't live in my Mom's basement and couldn't get laid if I walked into a women's prison with a fistful of pardons" I'll quote a line from a British TV show I rather like ("New Tricks"), "I didn't call you a pratt ... I called you a twat". Sorry: obviously I'm still mad. Typhoon
  10. I perceive no criticism, and I'll thank you for the encouragement. Sadly, I really don't think I should attempt to join the Development Team: I do not work as a Software Developer, nor as a Systems Admin, the last time I even inspected "raw" Assembly was 30 yrs ago; I'm "on-call" at the lab, family, friends, Friday-night "6-pack & a movie", my time is spent; the most-recent plug-ins I've written were for Dragon Age: Origins (what; 15 yrs ago?), facilitated by the studio releasing a public, "for modders", version of their Development Console. The OpenRCT2 plug-ins I employ (Ride Price, Scenery Manager, Advanced Track), so far as I can tell, run parallel to the game code and do not make any attempt to overwrite/supersede it: if a plug-in could address this issue, I might consider "blowing the dust off of" my JavaScript claws and sharpen them up; of course, the manner and magnitude of any changes would need to be ratified by a consensus from the Development team. One thing a lot of people sometimes overlook, when desiring to modify computer code, is the possibility of change in one system contaminating proper function in another, at its worst potentially causing cascade failures in numerous areas. With this specific issue my experience & instincts tell me that such danger is highly unlikely but, yes, I'd prefer to leave this sort of thing to our Development Team. On top of it all: I launch OpenRCT2 to play scenarios, design roller coasters, horse-around with 'hacky' stuff; I get enough work, at work. Typhoon
  11. I haven't tried to play any super-large parks, but I've been anticipating this problem: two years ago I devoted some time to watch Guest behaviour during my replay of Evergreen Gardens; over and over again, a Guest would be "heading for X" (often, the entire other side of the Park), then, "I can't find X!", wander around a little, then "heading for Y" (again, often, the other side of the Park ...). I deduced that, in Parks above a certain size, this accounts for all of the "lost" complaints but, also, almost-all of the "it's too crowded here" complaints. I was frustrated that I had, in Evergreen Gardens, a large number of Attractions with starving queues, and hundreds of Guests serially-timing-out not reaching far-away rides, generating "lost" and "too crowded" complaints. I'd imagine that the control here is a simple time-out but I haven't decompiled & parsed any of the code, nor compared energetic v. tired Guests: it could be tied to distance. I'd like to ask our Devs to modify the control to be, instead of some fixed-value, a function based on Park size: simply increasing the time-out will not punish "bad-pathing". I might want to try to play large-Park Scenarios, maybe even design one or two, but I've held-off in anticipation of this very issue. I imagine it's disheartening for hopeful Park-makers. Typhoon
  12. No, you do what I said, YOURSELF, precisely, including all possible file locations: you claim you used "an app" ... for all I could possibly know (and this is exactly what I originally told you), all you've ever performed remains 'dirty'. You did NOT perform a clean uninstall/re-install, according to my suggestion: you just admitted to using "an app"; again, Android might exercise file protections that I simply don't know; or your AV-protection suite; um, gee, wow, do you even possess "Administrator Access" to all functions of your tablet? WiFi tablet & SIM card: I expected (incorrectly) that the Android device was a SmartPhone. Happily, that's irrelevant: a checksum failure that reports more can only mean that some 3rd-party has illicitly added to the size of the file; that could only have happened within the environment of the device, itself ... Wipe it, and I don't mean, "using an app". Typhoon
  13. Hi, this was rolling-around in the back of my head: your "Actual" is larger than "Expected": um, please, perform a 100%-wipe and buy a new SIM card, then 100%-wipe again. Typhoon
  14. OK: there are two ways of uninstalling/re-installing any software; 'clean' and 'dirty' ... A 'dirty' re-install does occur far more often than it should and it's not the user's fault: 'artifacts' of the previous installation have not been overwritten by the re-installation process; usually, that's a failure on the part of whomever wrote the uninstall/install application. I'm describing something like, "Oh, at this point I should write G2.dat but, oh my!, it's already here, so I don't have to" ... How to perform a 'clean' uninstall/re-install: 1. Use system's/program's provided (un)install feature 2. navigate to the (previously) relevant file locations, and destroy anything/everything that remains 3. now, install all over again There might be other issues that should not pertain to anything related to OpenRCT2 but, um, yeah: APK? So, you're using a Mobile Device that runs Android ... I can't speak knowledgably about, "anything Android": potentially, wow, there might be any number of inter-file dependencies/access-authorization-issues that I just-plain don't know about. Please, try a 'clean' procedure, as I have described and, hit or miss, please post again. Oh, BTW, Jensj12 is wonderful and very knowledgeable, but failed to mention that the specific style of your problem is known as, "a failed checksum value". If folks here can help get you sorted, that will also help anyone/everyone with a similar issue; yes? Typhoon
