Its been awhile since iv been working on a coaster and this idea just popped into my head.

Exposure: The distance from the climber to where the climber would likely stop in the possibility of an unprotected fall.

Stats
about 90 ft tall
about 50 mph
about 3200 ft long

Exposure will feature intense laterals, airtime and relentless pacing. I will add some landscaping to the ride but it won't be as fully terrained like my previous coaster Mouflon.

I would like to use Symbiotics - Clifford envirnment but i still need (am trying to get) permission to use it.

Beware of the point of exposure.

update - 4/5/09
Iv finished all crossovers, landscape is finish (just needs trees), Station only needs paths (lines), 1/2 of the supporting on the lift/drop is finished.

update - 4/18/09
Enterance and Exit paths are done. About 60-70% of the supporting is finsished. added a couple of 3d flags on a couple of hills. A headchopper on a turn around is done and may add more.

that looks really cool, especially because it is not very tall. Providing that the pacing is good, this coaster could be pretty awesome. I really like the station

It looks really nice. Will it have a underground tunnel? But I couldn't find anything about exposure that has to do with climbing. Just photography.

Um it would be cool 2 have an underground tunnel but i dont know how to make 1 [:I]... lol

yeah exposure has a lot of meanings and ways to use it. I just went to this "Mountaineering" site and it gave me a list of terms that were used... the definition of exposure the site gave me was wat made exposure a good name 4 a coaster IMO.

Airtime / Laterals!

I still need to add supports but this is one of the fun (semi) turn arounds. [8D]

Ok, you're using those catwalks in between the rails wrong. On a real coaster, those are used for building/maintenance crews to cross over the track on the areas where there are only catwalks on one side, then they switch over.

See :11, 1:08, 1:11, 1:13, 1:19, 1:24 in this video:

Nice station and the lines look pretty good but add some more scenery it would make it look better.

http://www.nolimitsdevcenter.net/i43138 The corner supports are not connected right, and the helix could have more lateral bracing, if you can put it in.
To make the corner support connection right, make the corner post that is holding the roof up, extend above the round supports. Heres what I mean.http://www.nolimitsdevcenter.net/i43141

In that case, those are there so that if anything falls off the bottom of the train for some reason, nothing lands on the track below. Looking at the same park, you can see that Hades has the center of the track covered up where the ride crosses over Zeus, even though there's no change in which side of the track has catwalks.

Hades looks so hot in that picture b/c the airtime hill next to the drop. I think those catwalks down the middle look great.
