I think you made slightly more work for yourself in one part of this. When I was placing the entrance and exit, I used the opposite sides, so I had to move them and lower them, but not rotate them. Not really important, but the realization hit me, and I thought I'd mention it. So with the even number cars set to mini-golf, what does the game do as far as how many people the ride sits? Is it 10 (five two-passenger cars) or do some people somehow get on the mini-golf 'cars?' I set mine to 7 laps, 9 mph and a 40 second ride length. Low through-put, but it is a kiddie ride.
The mini golf vehicles should be set to 0 seats in the plugin by default. You can always manually change the number of seats but it won’t change how the vehicles look. So only the dragon flyer cars should actually seat people (2 each). But for increased capacity, you can decrease the number of laps and/or retheme the ride by using the suspended swinging airplane cars or the suspended swinging seaplane cars which each hold 4 guests instead of two.
We've got a ride called Dragonfly at Lagoon, and I've long puzzled over how one would make it look good. It's a very small swing ride but it has three small circling sections.
That’s an interesting ride; I just looked it up. Can’t really achieve both of those motions in the game at the same time. The closest I got was my spinning teacups ride but it doesn’t look right without spinning vehicles.
@@openRCT2tutorials Yeah. I've thought about it cause I've considered doing a recreation of Lagoon someday, but some rides like that and Mondial's Samurai are really complicated. I am impressed that some rides like the paratrooper ride you've figured out how to recreate.
@WasatchWind That would be a fun park to see! There are so many flat rides I’d love to build but the game is quite limited in what motions can be replicated.
I don't know if there is a glitch in the latest version of Open, or some other kind of problem, but today when I decided to try and build one of these (I watch your videos immediately, but it may be a few weeks before I get around to opening the game and trying to build them ... hey, life is busy sometimes), but I've run into a problem that no matter what coaster I try and switch it to, it doesn't give me a number of circuits option. I don't seem to be able to currently make this ... unless my mind is glitching, rather than the game. [edit]Nevermind ... maybe that save file got corrupted or something. Starting with a fresh game, everything works as expected. But now I lose all the progress I'd made on that particular park. Phooey.[/edit]
