OH just to be clear, the height is from the support line. It has to be that high above the supports.

I dont understand what you mean by this

It must be within that range of height above the supports on the template and must remain within the boundaries of the supports as well

Look at the template from a side view. Then go 80 feet above that. This is your maximum height. Any more questions?

I'm in.
And just to be clear, no terraforming, right?

Ok iv raised the template supports but the track is within the max height, is that ok??

so does a non inverting loop count as a inversion or no

Seriously, dude?

It's a good question because different people define a loop by different ways (by banking, looks, whatever). Definitions are important.

thats why i am asking, i plan to use a non inverting side loop like on time machine and was wondering if that would work since it is counted as a inversion but non inverting loops and side loops are loops with the tops cut out..

I suppose I'd count that

How on earth can a it be an inversion if it's not inverting?

Also would hang time count as ejector air or not. And finally is the max height measured

Thats exactly what i wanted to know.

Almost done supporting, how are your rides coming??

I'm learning N2 for this so I have a really good station segment and that's it.

Pretty much finished here, gonna upload soon.

Yup, as long as it's based on the original height of the supports!

Well that was a slightly... underwhelming response
The rankings are:
1. Scorpion
2. Jolt
3. Gauge



Congratulations to the winners, I guess.

No detailed critique on each ride showing why the winner was the winner?
