How am I suppose to be able to build my dream coaster when I'm limited to the building space? Can't they double the space they have currently? I wanna finish this ride I'm trying to build. I've been fiddling with the layout all week, and now that I got it down, I was going to design it, but NL has to small of a space! Maybe Ole can come out with a patch soon which will allow for larger building.

Building your ride on the diagonal will give you a lot more space.

Your dream is too big to fit inside a computer.

Congrats.[8D]

Yeah, all you have to do is save what you did so far as an element, position the first vertex at a 45 degree angle to any of the template "walls", insert the element and you should have enough space. Unless your planning to make another straight air hill or something, then your out of luck.

Nope, I just wanted an extended floater air hill, and then an overbank. It seems to have worked, but I don't know if the turn around over bank and the final over bank will fit.

You could always nudge it in a bit more by making the station perpindicular to the lift and making the lift a bit a steeper.

Or maybe he intentionally designed a steeper drop than incline on that hill? [;)]

That would be a very obvious mistake to make. I stand by what I said. Verdict coolbeans?

Start at one corner and build ... turn left, build, turn left, build, turn left, come back to the station. Piece of cake. ;-)

The verdict, I'm planning on making it the same steepness on both ends, but in order to fit it in and and demonstrate my gripe, I just flapped down the track, and made it look decent. Right now I want that hill to be a floater hill, but the way its designed right now, it's part floater/ejector. Basically your cruising along floating an inch off your seat, then all of a sudden it feels like your gonna get thrown out. WHo knows, maybe I'll keep it the way it is, but Iook into it more to decide which way I like better.

Hold on lemme start another topic so I can bitch at a 20 dollar game that has had 3 or 4 free updates for me. It's totally not good enough.

THis has nothing to do with another full update, but simply the fact that its upsetting that I came up with a really good design, but i'm simply not allowed enough space to create my idea.

i wanted to do the same thing with my current/onhold project trilithium, lift drop hill overbank, but since there wasn't enough room, it became lift drop up downward-turn, helix

3 left turns gives plenty of room boys ... remember: 3 left turns.
