Some of you may have seen my previous topic. Well, I took TheArchitect's advice and basically made a new coaster. Well I did make a completely new track, lol, so I made a new topic. This is the layout I am going with as of now, but any input on what would make it better will be appreciated. I am certainly not an expert on layouts, which you could say is my weakest point in the building process.

"Terminus" is a 230 foot, 79 MPH B&M Hypercoaster that has a shitload of airtime and high Gs. The initial drop reaches 80 degrees- making it one of the steepest non "dive machine" B&M coasters.

Inspirations include Silver Star, Intimidator (Carowinds for all you idiots out there), and Diamondback.

I spy some very noticeable newton references; the transition into the first air hill after the first drop dramatically stood out for me.

As far as I can tell that transition looks very good, might be a bit sharp, but it really looks a lot like the first hill of Silver star to me. This could very well turn out awesome, I'll be waiting for more pictures and progress! :)

It's a lot of fun to ride. The first drop is a freaking beast. Do you think I need to change the layout after the MCBR? It's starting to feel less and less B&M to me.

personally I think you should turn the station o face the other way and start with a pre-lift and raise the brakes\station up a little bit. any B&M I've been on I've had to climb a few stairs to get to and yours seems a little low to the ground. the layout looks good though.
What are these for?

I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, since a lot of B&M's just have some consecutive bunny hops after the MCBR. Not saying what you have is perfect, it still looks a tad repetitive to me. Perhaps some kind of helix would work.

Just out of curiosity, why are you posting screenshots from the terraformer, when there's not even any terrain?
