    Has the Wacky World invisible path/scenery glitching been reported as a bug in OpenRCT2? Using flat scenery pieces with invisible path is an intended use case and if one scenery pack is not behaving correctly with rendering layers then it could be addressed and fixed. Marcel Vos has mentioned random bugs in his OpenRCT2 videos and they were repaired pretty quickly; the devs on the project are listening and willing to implement when given a proper report. :)

    @DisneyBatchman 13 днів тому

    OK, in regards to the ideas I had ... the subs don't tilt with height changes, but since they are not circular, they do rotate with the track twists, quite changing the overall look. The ride time is already almost 3 1/2 minutes, so I don't want to extend that too much (I thought it was going to be a lot shorter than that, but I was wrong). I still think a larger vehicle that could handle more people would be good for this, but it would have to be largely circular, to avoid showing the track twist on the vertical portions, and would obviously have to be a specially created custom vehicle. The one possible mistake in the original ride, is that you said set the min and max time to 1 second, and if I did that, the ride only took up half the track. I changed it to min/max 2 seconds, and then it was almost perfect. (Might *possibly* be more perfect with 34 instead of 35 trains, but it's close enough at 35 that I think I'm going to leave it exactly as it is!)

    • @openRCT2tutorials
      @openRCT2tutorials 12 днів тому

      The subs hold more people so they actually take longer to load than 1 second, most likely. So you would have to adjust the number of vehicles based on load time, the speed of the subs that you can augment in the Ride Vehicle Editor plugin, and the size of the wheel. The tutorial is tailored to the bumper boats. That being said, I have a newer version of this ride using the river raft vehicles so it looks more like a normal ferris wheel. It's on my list of tutorials to make a 2.0 version at some point. But you are right; unless someone makes a specific custom vehicle for observation wheels, we're basically stuck with boat ride, submarines, and river rafts for vehicles that remain flat.

    • @DisneyBatchman
      @DisneyBatchman 12 днів тому

      @@openRCT2tutorials Actually, this was on the stock version. 2 seconds works perfectly. Perhaps 1 second would, also, and it was only going too quickly because it was in test, instead of actually open. but 2 seconds for me seems to work exactly as 1 second did for you in the video.

    So I comment on all these, and often my comments involve things I don't like about them ... but I also keep coming back, and keep building many of them, so hopefully you understand these are not meant to be mindless criticisms, but just me trying to merge your rides with my play style in my mind. Understand, I'm one of your biggest fans, and eagerly look forward to almost every video! My problems with this ride are two. At least with the Eye observation wheels, I understand they have huge cars which handle lots of people, and they move slowly. The bumper boats handle only two passengers, and this ride moves very fast. So it ends up being a completely different attraction, with vaguely similar overall appearance. So I was wondering ... bumper boats are a boat, meant to run on water, which may explain why they don't rotate, even when the track does. Which got me thinking ... the subs are also meant to be used in/on water ... they hold more people, and -may- also not rotate with tracks. Would it work to use the larger vehicles, and make them move a bit slower, and come up with a closer ride experience? (I don't want to slow them down to real-life speed ... if the ride took roughly 30 minutes, everybody would be complaining they want to get off ... but 3 or 4 minutes instead of roughly 30 seconds?) My only concern is, if slowing it down a bit would horribly ruin the stats. Any guesses on how this might work out? (Maybe I just need to build it once, use my ideas, and see what happens.) As I look back at one of the earliest of your rides, also looking forward to whatever comes next!

    OK, this ride (or the program, not sure which) is really starting to annoy me. I've built it two times in this park. Done it correct, step-by-step following the directions while building it, and got it all correct both times. And both times it will do the same thing. While testing it, it comes up with all the stats (and the numbers are almost exactly what you show in the video), but it never comes up with the three ratings numbers. It just keeps listing them as undetermined! Why is this game (not your excellent tutorial, just this game) doing this to me?!?!?

    • @openRCT2tutorials
      @openRCT2tutorials 27 днів тому

      Sorry you’re having trouble. First check the Ride Vehicle Editor plugin and make sure under Edit Stats you don’t have “freeze rating” checked. If that isn’t the issue, close the ride, then use tile inspector to raise a piece of track up and then move it back down into position and open the ride.

      OK, this time raised and lowered a piece of the *control* track, that didn't work, either. I wonder if it is possible it is a problem caused by the fact then while it was being built, the control track went outside of the park boundaries. (After using your scenery editor hack to shorten the control track, it is now inside the fence, but maybe when it went outside during the building, that permanently messed something up?)

    • @DisneyBatchman

      No, wait, the last tie I built the ride and it worked properly, in a prior build, the control track also went outside the park bounds, and it still worked fine. I now have no idea why there is a problem here.

  • @DisneyBatchman
    @DisneyBatchman 27 днів тому

    Having had these fail to ever be openable on me twice now, I'm including a word of warning on this design, while noting you'll be absolutely fine if you follow the instructions exactly. However, problems can come up if you take the idea and expand on some of your own thoughts. If you do different numbers of vehicles (perhaps because your vehicles are small enough or large enough that your trains become too short or don't fit together, there has to be enough room between the back of the last car and the front of the first car because if the first car reenters one end of the station before the last car leaves it, then the game thinks it has never left the station, so never starts counting the number of circuits. So now I have to tighten up my cars a bit so they can register. Just something to be aware of if your start building new versions of your own.

    • @openRCT2tutorials
      @openRCT2tutorials 27 днів тому

      Yeah that is the problem with a non-shoestring method. That’s why I only show the specific method in the tutorial. Otherwise you encounter the same issue you have.

You could copy the base of another drop tower and paste it in, or you can change the ride to a roto drop or launched free fall and build in the base by changing it to an elevator and building the station, but this can be tricky. I really don’t enjoy using trackitecture so I try to avoid it but this was the best I could do for this ride! I’m sure some others can improve upon my design.

    I'm debating on this one ... on the one hand, it is cool, in as far as the ride vehicles goes, handles twice the capacity of the CFR someone did of this, and gets roughly 1 point more excitement ... on the other, that trackitecture frame is pretty iffy, and I sure don't have the skills to do any better. I think I'll do it at least once, just to be able to say I've done so ... but doing it again in the future might depend on finding a better way to provide 'framing' for the ride. Anyway, when I finish my current run-through on Dynamite Dunes, I'm going to have at least 12 or 13 of your rides in it. If desired, when I'm finished, I can send you a park save to see them in use, and the places I've added my own mods to your designs (4 small rides in the ride combo, and 12 parachute jumps.) BTW - I'm almost sure the crashing on the jumps was due to track conflicts between control track and the actual vehicles, since when I moved the control track one further space out, it worked fine.

    I'm having an interesting situation with this ride, at this point. If I build version one, with a single train, it works fine. Every time I try building version two with the multiple trains, when I go to test it, it blows up. This takes so long to build, this is very annoying. But I think I may know why. I do a slightly larger version with 12 parachutes, and the placement of a couple of the towers intersects with the control track. All I can guess is, with a single train, either the cars pass through each other without difficulty, or with only one train I get lucky in the timing, and things don't interfere. I think on the next attempt, I'll move the control track another tile further out, to try and avoid conflicts between them. Oh, and even building this in a pay for the park, instead of pay by the ride, it's still VERY difficult to do without cheats because of the expense of raising and lowering so much land! OUCH! Still very cool, though, which is why I keep trying!

    • @openRCT2tutorials
      @openRCT2tutorials Місяць тому

      I'd have to know more on why the trains are exploding to diagnose the problem. Whether it's from actual collisions or the train going off the track. But yeah, it is a very costly ride to build if you aren't using cheats. My WindSeeker tutorial is also a costly one due to its height.

    Cool video ... if you left a blank space in between, could do this to make trios with actual Rotodrop cars or Launched Freefall cars? Just a longer 'transfer track' and two s-bends each, and you might be able to get three full rides in say a 5x3 space. (5x2 might be possible, but seems too tight to me.) Though I think it ought to be possible to do, I'm n ... have you ever been responding to something for the first time, and suddenly you are convinced it isn't for the first time? Deja vu. I was starting to say I can visualize this, and I think it ought to work, but that I'm not sure I'm ready to do the amount of work it might take to do it, but suddenly got the feeling I'd already said this, about this video, weeks or months ago, even though it was only released today. Now I'm gonna have to check my comments on past videos and see if I might have said almost the exact same thing on another tower-style ride that might have come close enough to cause this. Sigh. My mind being severely broken aside, great video!

      You can definitely do this for roto or launched free fall rides! I forgot to consider that in the tutorial but it is something I’ve already tried. They have to be the same operating mode so you can’t have one tower as a launched free fall and the other as a drop tower, though.

    Coming back to an older ride, as I'm starting a new (old) map and including several of your rides in them. The problem for me (what determines if I will build them in my parks) is can I charge enough to make it worth it. For example, though the Parachute Drop was really cool, I won't really ever bother building it again because it's stats were so low I couldn't charge enough for it. The multiple kiddie ride creation has the opposite problem ... it's stats are far too high. I can't feel good about charging people $18.60 for a kiddie ride. But I can lower the price to a couple of bucks, and all that happens are people celebrate how cheap it is. This is the one I'm finding myself wondering about. You got incredibly low stats on this, which means people don't want to pay a lot for it. But when I last built it in a previous park, I got a fair amount better stats than you did, somehow, allowing me to charge what I considered a decent amount for the ride. ($5 - $7 sounds fairly reasonable to me.) It'll be interesting to see what I get on it this time. [edit]But what is it saved as? You can't save Hybrid coasters, so it must be as something else ... but when I look under mini suspended, it's not there, either, so I'm wondering which kind of coaster it is saved as?[/edit]

    • @openRCT2tutorials
      @openRCT2tutorials Місяць тому

      This is true, the stats are always an issue with hacked rides. The Ride Vehicle Editor plugin that I use in a lot of my videos allows you to manually edit the stats, which is one way to workaround the issue. Another, specifically for this ride, is try making the ride vehicle the jet ski and then use the Ride Vehicle Editor plugin to manually change it to a roto drop vehicle. This should boost the stats considerably, due to the fact the jet skis have 75% excitement and intensity bonuses.

    • @DisneyBatchman
      @DisneyBatchman Місяць тому

      @@openRCT2tutorials But if you manually change the stats, it doesn't affect what the guests are willing to pay. My attempt to try and get around this (and it seemed to work fine) was to do all my decorating and things to boost the stats, then freeze them (so they are real stats, just frozen), *then* switch to the single rail coaster to bump the car into the air a little further. It's having people happy to pay about $5, which doesn't seem a horribly bad price. Also, just as an aside, there are a few of your rides I won't use because others already made custom versions of those rides. I'll still watch the videos, like, and comment, to give your channel a boost, but for example, I already have the Paratrouper ride as a CFR without having to hack it. But many of these I do love, and will use frequently. Leap Frog will almost certainly be in every park I ever build for the rest of my life!

      @@DisneyBatchman That is a great workaround, freezing the stats before changing the ride type. I generally don't pay attention to what guests will pay since I pretty much only play with pay per entry parks. As for custom flat rides, I think the reason I started this account was because I don't like the CFRs that currently exist. They are either too small and/or don't seem to fit in visually with the rest of the game, but to each their own. And hence, I am always trying to find new rides to create via hacks!

    Just working on the finishing touches of my test creation of this. Many vehicles I wanted to choose were too big to fit even four on a thing, so I had to be more selective, but I think my choices have worked out nicely.

    I think if I were to do this (and I'm really thinking about it, even if just for the experience) I would do it with four trains/rides. And I'd have to think of two different vehicles to add in, because I absolutely hate the helicopter, and think it is about the ugliest thing ever. In a busy park with lots of rides, things going on, and some extra scenery, I think I'd notice the peeps walking through parts of the ride to enter and exit little enough that I could ignore it. Great possibilities here.

    • @openRCT2tutorials
      @openRCT2tutorials Місяць тому

      That would be awesome! There isn't really a limit to how many rides you could combine into one (255 is the game limit for number of trains). Just depends on how long the ride length is so that peeps aren't just constantly loading. As for vehicles, there are so many options... so many different car ride vehicles to choose from, the flower power bumper cars, horses, motorbikes, go karts, etc!

  • @DisneyBatchman
    @DisneyBatchman Місяць тому

    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.

    • @openRCT2tutorials
      @openRCT2tutorials Місяць тому

      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.
