Q: Can we modify the terrain and add water and stuff? I also plan on tunneling (either by converting the terrain to 3ds or simply letting the train crash into the ground, using a black plane 3ds object to cover it up.)
A: You may not edit the terrian in any way. Tunneling is restricted to two tunnels per track


Converting terrain to 3ds will only screw up the trees. I apologize for mentioning it.

Actually, its more to do with fitting 3 trains in, but I guess it has a little to do with momentum loss. Afterall, the train can't go too fast if you're packing it in to such small spaces like I am [;)]

I take it we can change the colours? Only I've got something pretty unique lined up for the colours on mine.

I have decided to switch my coaster from a woodie; to an intamin; with woodies, they lose there momentum way too fast, with the maxumimun height of a lift

I found the same problem and even though it is a bear I am going to tough it out and try to get a good terrained woodie that doesn't die. I have had about 10% success at this so far. [B)]

yeah, I didn't even bother trying to design a woodie with nice, fast pacing...anyways, I'm now about 45% done with layout work and having a great time.

okay.. no limits is being a bitch right now, but i have a good ride. is there a way for me to take my ride, and put it into the terrain? it's already in the terrain but for some reason, it's going VERY slow, the supports don;t delets, and the trees are moving around by themselves. (i keep fixing them but then another tree far away will move so it intersects the track (?)) so is there a way i can take my track and put it into another version of the landscape?

erm, you can save the whole track as an element and then download the template again and just load the element back up into the right place in the new template, thats what I'd do.
