Hello,
I am new to Planet Coaster, just started with Alpha 3. I searched Youtube a lot for a decent Tutorial of building a roller coaster. There are some speed builds, but it seems there is not a one step by step or tips and tricks even for alpha 2. Though I read that building coasters changed significantly from alpha 2 to 3 anyway. The reason I can't find any might just be, that it's difficult to search specificly for a coaster building tutorial because there are a lot of good Planet Coaster tutorials about other aspects out there - watched and love those!

I would love to see an alpha 3 coaster building Tutorial for beginners from you advanced builders. Would also like to see coaster slow builds with life comment.

Does anyone know a good coaster building videos or articles?

Greetings

I am having a look at the cullyns Youtube Tutorial list about coaster parts.

And your tip mentioned there sums it up pretty good for me :):

heres a trick for beginners: make your first lift hill only high enough to go through your biggest inversion. then keep every hill after that smaller in size. so if your biggest inversion is a loop, it should come pretty close after your first hill. Keep it short, small and without too many inversions until you get better. The trick is to learn how to maintain speed by not having a hill that is too big. Your coaster should move somewhat slowly through the inversions. And obviously banking as much as possible is usually a good idea too, especially in the faster turns.
