Planet Coaster: What you've been up to?

[Skyscraper]

Mega wave lol



I did this by multi-selecting the three initial wave machines I had, then I created a new scenery group which allowed me to duplicate and advance move them to make a stack of three (in a diving-depth pool).

I was away for the games launch, but had a few hours playing with it today. Made a very basic wooden coaster which only took a few minutes and runs perfectly smooth.

Such a big improvement on Planet Coaster 1, as I was never really happy with how the coasters rode.

Oh wow that looks like a fun coaster, I agree although it took a while to get used to it, the new smoothing is a lot better.


Here is a teaser for my new RMC creation, featuring a 184ft hopefully worlds first inversion, the Cobra Stall

PROJECT 10 Is a fully custom 10 Inversion Infinity Coaster, complete with custom supports which are all grouped for easy colour changes(Providing they stay grouped). I hope you all enjoy this creation, it's been a labour of love, sweat and tearsWorkshop Code- 3B4-VVH-9VG

Managed to get a few hours on PC2 today and had a go at making a themed flat ride. The ride I chose is sometimes known as a Caterpillar, so I decided to lean into that idea. The Giant caterpillar in the middle is fixed to the ride and spins with it.

Whilst the game definitely has a few bugs still (I kept having to leave and reload the scenery menu to get features to load), the fact that I managed to throw this together in only a few hours shows how much easier it is to make amazing rides in PC2. The scaling feature meant that I used less than 30 pieces making the centrepiece fit and look great.

When compared to a similar ride I made (see below) in PC1 that I was working on for at least 2 months and used 1000's of pieces on the central engine.

Haven’t had time to screenshot on my PC. But here’s a few photos from the first park I’ve been working on in PC2. Work in progress on a Mediterranean area and Vikings area. Coming along nicely.

I updated my RAM and I can finally play the game without it crashing my PC now, so I've been able to get back in and support the RMC Trex. Just under 3k pieces and a lot of stress lol

Here is my attempt at an Alton Towers inspired Cross-Valley RMC, The lifts hills are just under 80ft with a drop height of 181ft

So I've taken a 3-month break from the game, convinced it was the game that was broken for me....turns out I needed a new mouse

I've decided to start slow, getting back into the game, so here is a quick layout for a Vekoma launched shuttle coaster I'm calling Rattlesnake.

I’m still on PlanCo 1 as I’ve got a MacBook, but currently building a new park, which always takes me like 3 months to fully build. Currently completed a Viking area, and a gothic town sort of inspired by dark universe.

Also a question: when building GCIs, has anyone figured out how to replicate the sideways airtime humps found on rides like wodan, like this:

Whenever I attempt it, it’s never snappy enough, or if it is, I’m getting airtime like -1.5G, and too strong laterals

Errrmmm.... Check your staging?

Probably want them on up hill and slower sections with minimal height difference in the hump and heavily smoothed

Gave it a go yesterday! managed to get the negatives to about -0.7G and lats around 0.8G, took a solid 15 min but got there

My custom RMC I made in Planet Coaster 1.

5 Inversions, 4 Airtime Hills and a Top Speed of 71 miles per hour.
