I've been working on the Lift Hill, and Break Run area. This is what I have set up! (I have made a 16th layout, and this layout is a Indoor ride (Not a dark ride) But just indoors. It'll be tropic themed, with water, and artificial splashdowns still occurring!)

(This post was based on a progress update that I did a moment ago on other sites. This site is late to the party on this project.)

^ That's just Oscar, it's best to leave it alone in the wild, or else bad things happen...

Anyways, I'd love to see more of this as well, that lift hill looks huge!

Thanks guys :)

I've improved the turn into the unloading station, or what is now the final break before the dueling station.

Also, the lift is tall because it will be indoors, and there will be heavy land themeing inside of it.

Quite the building you'll be making to enclose that lift....

I think I'm having the station below the ground level. (This would cost a LOT for the park if it was build in real life)

Seriously, this is why you usually don't see any 400 foot enclosed coasters being built :P

the lift hill is only 200 feet, and it's probably going to be lowered, because I don't seem to need that much hill for it.( I might make the Lift Out Doors. and then once you reach the top, you get inside again.)

That would seem a bit weird to have only the lift hill outdoors, either all enclosed or all not enclosed.

Great wolf lodge has their waterslides go ooutside the building and then return, its really just an inverse tunnel
What are these for?

Yea, that's true.
I've been there, Double Barrel Drop or the roller-coaster slide thing is my favorite.

A bit of a delay, but I've finally started working on real track work, of course. this is not final, I'm trying to figure out ways to make it more fun.

Depends on how heavy you intend on going with the themeing in my opinion. Some good terrain work etc. and that'll be a nice little prelude to the rest of the ride - but if you want to leave it open might want to consider an inversion thrown in there somewhere!

I always thought an inversion as the drop on a coaster would be cool.

Yep I like both rides thus far based on what little that has been shown. Keep going with them!
