Hello Everyone

I know i havent made a coaster in a long time, but i feel the urge to make a new one

As always, its probably gonna be quite alternative, and probably a Dual-load station (2 stations different leading to one track)

Now of course, the only way to do that in NL, is to build 2 stations, and make one track overlay on top of the other to give that appearance.

This leads to problems however, as the trains will start at the same time, leading them to overlay into each other

To get round this, One must press F11 to *change dispatch to manual*, which in effect, dispatches one train, and leaves the other one in the station, until such time One presses F11 again, to automatically dispatch the trains again, done correctly, this then leaves the simulator to run perfectly, dispatching trains that dont *overlay*

What im trying to ask, is are people willing to do this?

Aside, I think I would do that if it was really put out to do that. I dont read coaster descriptions much. But it would be better to just do it with 3ds, I dont think most would.

I have tried it before with a kingda ka track and it worked great, but you have to let the other track go before you, or you can make the stations settings into a longer wait time, etc. But yes, I does work.

No.. unfortunatly u cant have one station have more waiting times, as the sim launches the 2 coasters at the same time

Hopefully this will be adressed in NL2

There is actually, a way to fix that. Quite simple, really. Just make the track leading to the lift hill or launch track, longer on one side, making an offset, just long enough for the train to travel out ahead of the other.
