Phyter, for the life of me I can't figure out how to make lifts/brakes/stations completely straight. How do I do this?

The new homepage looks great!

@ride op/Tom, So friction can only be disabled on the pro version of the simulator? I was discussing with my Physics teacher about the program, and using it in class for the roller coaster project design. He asked me if friction could be disabled to make it so we wouldn't have to calculate the force...

Thank you.

Are there pictures of the Intamin OTSRs?

I'll take this Suspended update over the woodie update they planned to show before release. This is grand.

I'm guessing it also applies to any floorless coasters. Probably a vertically moving floor for inverted coasters too.

Is this event worth the price they're asking for? ($36-46 depending on the day). I know there are a bunch of people from the Tampa area on here, have any of you been in the past? My home park is the Williamsburg Busch, and we were thinking of making the trip down to Tampa about two weeks from now. W...

These are awesome Jak! I've thoroughly enjoyed all of them so far

I know a partition is a divider that's an easy definition to remember, but I don't know how this is news.

In a metal what?

It's not there best for sure but it stands its ground. It could have used a little less muffled screaming but with the lyrics it gets the tone and feel across pretty well.

If you do this you must put have a soundtrack, Humans Being, specifically.

What's happening to this thread? I'm not sure if they're trolling or spam bots or whatever they are?!

Looks like a poor man's Alpengheist

Originally posted by Coasterkidmwm I don't see how rides with like half a dozen trains and half a dozen launches are cheap to maintain. Personally I always figured that they went for what was relatively high tech at the time and what looks flashy. I have to agree here, the parks to have their minor...

It didn't make much sense to me but the ride attendent I asked said Lion (or Tiger) is being dissassembled and shipped to Williamsburg. To add to the rumor, I could only find one yellow train and one blue train on the premises. Bormally they have two of each. I don't really like this ride so I'm not...

I'm at the park today eating lunch as I type this. When I was at Gwazi earlier I asked an employee why one track of Gwazi was barricaded at the station and their is a platform ontop of the track for fast pass riders for the only operable track. They said that it's being dissassembled and shipped to ...

B%M just have that clean well structured feel. I may be biased because BGW is my home park and 3/5 coasters are B&M.
Intamin is close in my opinion though. A tighter, leaner, feel than B&M.

If I'm not mistaken, F.orce V.ector D.esign editor. It's a special way the program calculates the math behind the physics.

Originally posted by coasteragent99 NL file support (probably via import) has been confirmed several times. Not sure about elements. I'm still a fan of the newfangled approaches, but I'll definitely give the new tools a try, especially if old-style tracks (i.e. Arrow) are faster (albeit less accura...

How do the lifts work in NL2? Do they lock the car into a constant speed once they slow down to the specified speed (if exceeding that speed upon entering) or will it stagger to get started? That is a feature that I would love to have, as many lifts on older coasters struggle to move the train upon ...

Originally posted by 4dfan Is there really a thread for this? I think that we all did this at one point or another: 1. create station. 2. change to lift segment cursor. 3. spam click everywhere and cover the whole screen with little blue dots(or the insert element tab). 4. change lift settings to 1...

I actually want download links to the first and third coasts in the top post. Looks interesting.
