Thanks for the comments guys. Feedback is all fair enough.
I'll reshape the first airtime hill to try and get it down to about 0.3G for the front seats. The air on the hills at the end is fine I think, especially given that they are much slower. The support scenery at the entrance is too tall and looks very weird yes, I'll rework that. I never actually tested putting a train into storage so I'll have a look at the stalling issue too.
The dual station is needed precisely because the ride time is a little short, otherwise trains get stacked outside the station for a while. B&M do occasionally use switch tracks as opposed to full transfer tables though (like Air, another flying coaster).
So I spent a lot of time looking at this coaster before reviewing it. I must say that I agree that it was a "typical" flyer, however I still very much enjoyed it. Now onto the breakdown:
T- My favorite coasters are those that use the landscape to their advantage and offer a breathtaking ride and I must say that this coaster used the terrain well. Although it was short (kind of a disappointment because I wanted MORE) in the ride that was presented was great for what was there. I did notice an error when transferring trains onto the storage track that resulted in them stalling on the track, although minor detail, certainly something to look at.
A- I thought the ride definitely packed a punch and served up some tricks, WELL DONE!
U- I have yet to some across a flying coaster and think WOW! Not to say this wasn't unique but it leaves something to be desired.
R- I could definitely see a coaster like this being placed into a park.
RV- Well Done
Overall a good ride, the only thing I didn't mention in my comments was the use of the tranfer into storage, that is one thing that bothered me. Not to say it couldn't be done, but B&M is notorious for their full transfer tables, something that would have made this coaster a little better in my view
T - the track was very smooth almost flawless. The supports looked a tiny bit thin in some spots but otherwise they looked like all custom and were beautiful. the two stations worked nice but imo it was not needed with a short track and no MCBR
A - there were some spots with nice turns and inversions but other spots seemed a bit lost, like you didn't know what to do until the next element. also some of the hills did not provide complete airtime, the one after the drop only gets .7 G's.
U - didn't feel this coaster was really unique. fairly typical flyer and the forest theme is extremely common.
R - everything about this coaster felt and looked like a real coaster. at the entrance everything looks all distorted idk what that's about but the queue's are like 8 ft tall.
RV - ride was a bit short, but would still be a valuable asset to any park.
