4/9/2023 0 Comments Planet coaster forum![]() I really like the way specter dives into this barn. I tried to do this but it really isn't good, if anyone has any tips on how to do this while still having a functional ride, please let me know. I'm really disappointed by the rapids in the game, having a straight station sucks to begin with, but then not being able to add more boats than the station can hold (like the log flume) is what really ruins it, makes it almost impossible to imitate a turntable station. The majority of the queue for the rapids winds around itself in the middle of this plaza area. The roller coaster - specter - is inspired by mack mega coasters I really like the idea of mixing horror elements into an area that isn't entirely horror themed (basically just transylvania at chessington). this area is themed to germany, an the big rollercoaster that runs through the area is going to have a horror theme when it's finished. I also recommend getting Roller Coaster Tycoon (either 1, 2 or 3) or Planet Coaster, not just to better introduce yourself on learning the bare basics of how roller coasters work and how they work in video games considering video games, especially RCT 3, portray physics differently and how it may or may not be accurate to RL, but because it is darn fun creating and even riding your very own screaming metal deathtraps.Booted up planet coaster today with the intention of just messing around with a roller coaster that interacts with a rapids ride, ended up wasting my entire day pretty much starting a new park and half finishing the first area. it’s like trying to do a study on how GTA 5’s health insurance compared to real life’s and breaking down how accurate it is. I actually want to see you study and explain the physics of those 4 games (RCT 1, 2 and 3, and PC) and how accurate they held up to RL and etc, instead of … doing that on the very minor part of the WoW. Again with the forementioned magic, and maybe consider the fact that video games (unless it is the focus, such as Roller Coaster Tycoon or Planet Coaster for example) don’t portray physics accurately. Maybe starting with the fantasy medieval game with dragons, jack black pandas and sci-fi elements, it’s not probably not the best place to start with. I don’t see anything too wrong with sciencing things in video games. Inb4 “This is Azeroth, with magic instead of science”…I don’t see any magic powering this roller coaster, so if you’re gonna come here with your bullcrap magic excuse, get out of this thread. Which means, in reality, the Darkmoon Faire roller coaster would pause well short of the second starting hill and start rolling back the other way, causing massive problems for ride operators (and for Blizzard). If you happen to pay attention to the roller coaster ride, you will notice that the start of the second “phase” is at least 10 feet higher than the initial starting hill. On occasion, roller coasters are divided into 2 or even 3 phases, each with its own starting hill and unique potential/kinetic energy cycle, but as a whole the roller coaster is powered entirely by gravity and potential and kinetic energy.Īnd hence why the Darkmoon Fair roller coaster, while fun, fails every principle of science. the roller coaster reaches the top of a hill that is higher than the initial starting hill), then the roller coaster would stop, and ride operators would have a huge problem. If for some reason the potential energy and kinetic energy ever equal 0 (e.g. When it zooms down the hill after being taken up to the top, that potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. While explaining said potential and kinetic energy would take longer than I have space for this thread, allow me to summarize: When a roller coaster reaches the top of the first hill (again, either by pulling the car up via chain or by magnetic fields), the roller coaster is storing potential energy. …and I have to say this: Whoever was responsible for designing it obviously did not pay attention in science class.įirst, a bit of an explanation: While each roller coaster is unique in their own way (some are made of metal while others are made with wood some are pulled up to the top by a chain while others use magnetic fields to push the roller coaster up to the top and out at a high speed, etc.), the basic principle for each roller coaster is the same: Roller coasters are powered only by gravity and the principles of potential and kinetic energy. ![]()
