Not sure how I feel about the first drop supports meta lol. Otherwise it looks like a really interesting ride.

they would be cleaner, but unfortunately there's that section of track right beneath it. However, aside from the one skewed arm of the tower and the fact that the drop bar is leaning, the supports are basically the same as those of X2 (as that's what I based the supports on)


EDIT: I've cleaned up the supports on that tower a bit and now they look better.

Rtrudy on your B&M have the 3 supports at the peak of your lift connect to three footers that are placed in a line close together, not all into the same footer (if they're not like that, I can't tell but it looks like they're all going into the same footer)


Good eye, thanks!

A couple of your supports clip through the track and the dive loop is very undersupported.

Where do they go through the track? I checked to see if the came to close to the track.

And why do you think it's under supported? Look at Goliath (SFGA) it's not that different.

^I agree, it doesn't look too undersupported to me. By the way, how come the trains are so short?

I was afraid that the gforces would be too high, because some drops are tight. The gforces in the back are all ready pretty high.

I just don't think the single free standing supports would be enough to support the dive loop. Maybe if you at least connected each structure to each other it would be better.

I looked again and I was wrong about the clipping issues. Sorry about that.

Yeah I can see what you mean, I thought about it too, but I liked the simple look of this, instead of the structure being to much supports. But it would make it look a bit more realistic.

Supporting needs some tweaking, but besides that I think I have myself a finished coaster. :)

It wont be too far from release. Like I said, it only needs minor tweaking. Expect it to be released soon. :)

^ Is this going to be an enclosed version? I already see seven white arches over there. ;) Oh, forgot to ask one more question - how steep is the track part?

It will not be a enclosed version. I think the track is sloped at 10 degrees.

Just in case of the rare event that a rider finds him/herself on fire, there's a fountain.

For spectators.


The sides will be added after the layout is finalized, inspired by the post above.
