Details

This is a new coaster I'm working on which doesn't have a name yet. Any suggestions would be welcome.
This is my first big project I'm working on so comments are very appreciated.
I meant to start this thread a while when I first started but I never got around to it.
I'm putting up supports now but if there are and track suggestions I can change the track.
Colors are not definate because I can't find a perfect combination so any help there would be good.
I have a custom station in sketchup that is still a work in progress.
I will upload pictures of that once I figure out how to.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Questions:

Question 1: How can I take pictures in edit mode of NoLimits?
Question 2: How can I take pictures in Sketchup?
Question 3: How do you get the coaster's stats? Do you click something, or do you have to do it yourself?
Question 4: How do you find out the angle of a drop and how high off the ground a hill is?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Screenshots:

More pictures will be added in next update. (And when some of my questions are answered)
Post any questions that you have and I will answer them.

i like the track colours just change the train to light grey or sliver.

call it blaze

to take pics in the editor you need to print screen on your keyboard. next to the scroll lock. then edit and past it into one of the microsoft office programs or to paint and save it

same for sketchup

the g forces are at the top of the nolimits screen and you have to do them yourself. there is a program somwhere for the rest of the stats like the number of nodes, track segments and supports but im not shure wich it is.

as for the angle i would judt judge it and the drop you need to know how far you have oved the hill up then subtract that from the coasters hight.

hope hats helped
