I think, adding to someone else's idea, there should be ride categories that go past those in NL. Instead of 2 bench wooden, there should be sub-categories for CCI, GG, GCI, RCCA, etc., for example. Make sure to have categories for those who don't follow the style of a real designer too...something like "Hyper 2 Seat, original style" might work.


That is wheres Matt's suggestion of tags would be very handy. For example you could 'tag' your track as 'Intamin, hyper, ballsonfaceextreme' etc, and then that track will be refered to in tag searches for hyper Intamins.

It would be up to the track owner to describe their track, instead of only having a certain amount presets to describe it.

How about a field indicating ride time. It might be interesting in creating the longest ride.
In addition to the rating categories on the coasters, how about one for terrain/terraforming. I've seen some creations that the settings really add to the experience.

Zaphod, Ride time field, you mean users input the ride time? I don't know if it would be an accurate field. I don't think most people time their rides.

Turbo, No.

I was just thinking about rating,
Isn't it possible to make it that users have to rate at least one track every one or two months?? with 20000 members that would be at least 2500 ratings a week.

a rating every one or two months isn't something that takes time to much time IMO

It has been discussed before, and we will not turn into a site that forces users to rate. Forcing people to rate is that same as scaring them away.

Also, when a member want to DL a track and sees he has to rate a track, he'll just write something down to get it over with.

I think it would be cool if there was a Coastercrazy Cartexture for every ride type, but that would probably never happen. The cartexture exchange would be useless though seeming that everyone customizes their own textures with the ride name / theme.

Maybe an option that you can upload more images to the track page, so instead of one picture you can browse through some more pictures of the ride.

Who mentioned this one? I can't find any post about it to further explain it but I sure hope it's not what it sounds like...That would get so incredibly annoying.

I'd like to see separate categories for themed parks and parks with multiple roller coasters. It's hard to rate parks with moe than one design but not actually a developed park. how was this handled with Screammachines?

This has already been handled. Select Park when uploading and you'll have another box show to tick which track styles are in the park. The coder hasn't come back to finish to display on the track detail page the track styles in a park. See the pic below:

If they didn't do any theming to the park and just plastered tracks around, then dock them for it since it isn't a park but just a collection of tracks imo.
