Ehhh what the hell... Count me in if I still can join... I need to be more active again and this will be a way to do so! :)

On the possible note I don't finish since school is ramping back up, I apologize in advance lol.

^ School is pretty much the reason I can't compete... The next one should be doable for me though.
What are these for?

Well rmc shaping is harder than i thought. Also is the gforce comb a good representation on the final gforces? It seem it goes into the yellow and red when i want it to pull the moves i want it to be.
A man has needs and that needs is booze.

Its only the G forces for the middle car, meaning the front and back cars will have significantly higher/lower Gs. Even for the middle car its still a bit off.

I've just been auto-smoother'ing my way to victory.

As far as track staying in the red lines, is it frozen totally rendered track or the unfrozen wireframe track?

Lol, never said it was gonna be good :P I kinda just spammed the "add vertex" button and this is what happened.

I might just scrap it though and redo it, or i might fix it, who knows.


Also, one question, does it have to follow the same general layout/path as mean streak or does it just have to use the existing supports?

I'm about 70% done with my layout and will post a few images once that's done (probably this weekend). However, I've got a question before moving forward: Does the ride need to have a working storage area? If so, how many trains does it need to accommodate?
Coaster Count: 535 (114 wood, 444 steel); Park Count: 110
Top 5 Wood: El Toro, Voyage, Thunderhead, Outlaw Run, Boulder Dash
Top 5 Steel: Superman the Ride, Fury 325, Millennium Force, X2, Intimidator 305

I forgot to mention it, but I'll be sure to add it to the rules. Yes the ride must have a storage area and must theoretically work. Since NL2 has limitations on certain storage methods as long as it can work in real life, it should be fine. The storage must accommodate all but one of the running trains.

Also here's a tutorial for inversion supports for those of you that need it:

Can we make a Joker (formerly Roar) like storage area? Even if it doesn't work, can we do it?

Yep as long as it can be functional in real life it's fine.
