Okay, so Flickstah and me have been arguing that the following element would be painful to ride, and is not like B&M to do.

The element is on CokeZero's Waterworld:

Now, the element is taken at 8mph in the front car, and 11mph in the back car, and yet gives of a painful -0.1 lateral g in the rear car.

Would B&M do something like this? And, according to the laterals, would it be "painful" to ride?

The trackwork was done by Coasterkidmwm, whom I believe to know what he is doing.

Wow. Just wow is all I have to say to you bobbyjo. Btw, real mature of you to block me, and then resort to actually making a topic about our argument. Real mature buddy.
So, my friend came up to me the other day and asked if I wanted a frozen banana, and I said no, but I want a normal banana later, so... yea.

This from the person whose parents are so stupid that they picked a first name from native americans?

You do realize the equivalent would be if you were named Laqueesha and was white.

I'm pretty sure that Iron Wolf's drop doesn't jerk like that. But whatever, I'm going to stop arguing about this because 1. It's an extremely stupid topic to argue about, and it has escalated to something that is completely unreasonable, and 2. It's stupid to argue with both of you because of the immaturity levels involved. I've said my piece, and I am most likely not going to respond to this topic again. Go ahead and make a comeback, but it's quite pointless.

The pull in of the drop looks just fine. You're not going fast enough for it to really matter...

can't you just extend it so the corner is bank all the way and the transition is localised to minimise lateral Gs?

Heres my take after looking at it myself in the editor.

The only reason its a jerk is because the back handle of the highlighted node isnt touching the imaginary perpendicular line created by the lift hill. Its literally .5 of a foot from having a lead in. As it stands, it has no lead in. So techincally, B&M more than likely wouldnt design without a lead.

However, its a minor thing to argue or bring up because if the G's are that good because of the speed, it doesnt matter.


Kyle - Thats a different style coaster and that whole turning drop only looks like that because its heartlined to 1.3m. So the shaping is perfect, as it virtually always is on a B&M.

On a slightly different note, those footers are far too big (bigger than I thought). Guess that's a scenery fail on my behalf. lol
