Add scenery to moving parts of the flat-rides

hi guys,

great work and really can´t wait for alpha 2... while i like the themed rides you already did, i think you missunderstand why many want more generic rides to theme them by themselfes. While i hope it will be possible to put even theming inside flatrides, so that you can cover themes or parts of the ride, it would be great to add theming to the ride parts it self. I don´t know if this is possible or hard to programm, but i would be great if you could add an advanced mode for ride themings and add for example pins on each movable part of the flatride, to which you can simply add scenery and moving it from there into the position we want (so like each pin is a space for all kind of scenery to put on it, and then it moves according to the movement of the flat ride). Maybe this is to hard to programm for your developers but it would open unlimited possibilities for creative flat-rides.
i tried to make an fast picture example what i mean:

Highly doubt they will add this, unfortunately. What would be a good compromise though would be to at least allow you to pick different scenery themes for each flat ride.

For Pirates I'd make the "Planes" Bird/seagull themed and replace the skyscraper with a lighthouse looking thing with a spotlight that rotates with the ride...

Wild west? Cow shaped "planes"with the central tower being shaped like a Tornado.

Spooky? Ghosts shaped "Planes" with a Haunted House in the middle.

Fantasy/fairy tail? Not sure... Would matching the pink elephants from the Magic Twirl catch flack from Disney? (Where you're now riding in the Elephants and the same witch from the Magic twirl sits in place of the skyscraper... Could call it the Magic Swirl...)

here is an another example how the tool could look like... instead of pins you got areas to add scenery/theming. It would be so great, with this it would even be possible to use the ride animation for creating creatures or machines as animated objects.

Maybe it will be easier to program for the developers, if you only allow to build the scenery when the ride is closed, so everything is in the starting position, and then you could just add the values of the movement to the starting position to the scenery added. That would be ONE OF THE BEST ADDITIONS I CAN THINK ABOUT FOR THEMING [woah]
