-2

Some pretty weird rules...
But I'm in, sounds fun!

[slosprint]

i've already started. i've decided not to use tools even though it makes it extremely hard to keep the Gs in check on something this big with such a small area to work with.

sounds like fun im gonna try

I think I'll give it a go.

Question: It states "NO supports on the area marked with a RED "X". Does that mean supports can't even go over that area or just can't be touching ground?

Those brake segments are a killer. Most compact coasters use the transfer segment as the holding block.

what is the diffeence between the section with an x through it and the purple box?

It took me a couple of times to read the difference. But I think there can't be any supports at all in the red X box, but no supports under 30ft in the purple box.

Can you confirm if this is correct or not?

[slosprint]

so no supports can cross over the x section no matter what the height?

I think so... Now it's waiting for Tetsu to confirm me or correct me...

Uh... I'm pretty sure you can have supports cross over the red X...

The braking requirements are confusing. Can you label this picture just to clarify?

hmmmm, 1 month isn't much time, but i have a good idea already. count me in

[slosprint]

so far i've got a peice of crap ride that is 220 ft tall, only has a 150 ft drop and the wierdest slinky-helix thing i have ever seen in my life. it is an original element, so i think i'll call it a "get-rid-of-speed-in- a-small-area-peice-of- no- good-turnaround-dirtimonkey" it looks cool and hidious at the same time.

So far i have an o.k. ride with 2 lift wraparounds. 153 ft tall i think and it will be VERY compact

- No track my be outside the template.

- Supports my not go out of the template.

My? is that spelling mishap or is it supposed to be like that.

Is that really significant to the meaning of that phrase? Anddd is it not very obviously a typo?
