Oblivion: General Discussion

I still don't fully understand this; if the problem is that the back rows in a 10-row train would be whipped over the edge too forcefully after the front rows begin to drop, then couldn't this be solved by gently moving the entire 10-row train onto the vertical drop section before the train gets held (instead of having, say, 5 rows on the vertical drop section, and 5 on the horizontal section) - similar to a tilt coaster?

The only problems that I can see are that it wouldn't solve the problem as the train leaves the tunnel (e.g. the back rows may be whipped up too forcefully as the train exits the hole), and it would also lead to poor visibility for people sitting in the back rows as well.


This is interesting! If I had known this then I would have mentioned it in my e-mail to Renny.

I would guess that it may be due to the lack of springs on the wheels, (the reason objivions drop isn't 90 deg) if adding another row it would have to be trailered and I wonder if it would fishtail down the drop creating a quite rough experience, with newer sprung wheels theyvare able to maintain their contact to the rails per.anenetly even during vertical zero-G moments.
