What you're thankful for in NL2 that NL1 didn't have.

Saw this thread on NLE and decided to be a copycat cuz of what today is.
-Copy and pasting supports
-Heartlining is effortless
-custom tracked rides and invisible track
In addition to so many little things:
-The template size and abundance of scenery customization and anti-frustration features (including but not limited to .dae import) that encourage me to add more theming and vibrancy than I ever felt like doing in NL1

I can easily add some dank skethcup models to my coaster.

-Roll nodes

-Scripting

oh god, so much. spline editor, roll nodes, better smoothing, customization as a whole, track segments, spine segments, colorization, walk mode, more support settings, more than 1 track, custom rides, scripting... probably a lot more I'm not thinking of.

Only downsides
sound of the editor is still choppy when looking left/right
can't look vertical or beyond in fly mode

-That beautiful menu screen

It's really sad that for all the technical improvements the editor UI is such an abortion compared to NL1.

Modal dialogs SUCK!

Bring back useful toolbars!

Being able to put more than one coaster in a park is so lovely.
