Dive Coaster Holding Brake

This might be a petty and trivial suggestion, but I would love it if we could change the angle of the holding brake for the Dive Coaster. The current holding brake angle is very unrealistic and the dive coaster train is held at the bottom of the brake resulting in the train already being vertical. On actual dive coasters the train is usually held at the start of the holding brake.

Because of this I tend to use brake runs at a very slow speed instead of holding brakes, but it would be nice if the actual holding brake in the game looked realistic.

* Brake in the title. I'm clumsy. :sleep:

* Thank you to the moderator who fixed it. :ROFLMAO:

This was the same issue in Planet Coaster 1 and has irked many many players. It isn't trivial at all, it is completely wrong and unrealistic and silly looking, such that I just never use dive coasters, which is a massive shame.

Considering they've done so much research on other models and everything else is so realistic, it's very strange to me that the holding brake angle on the dive coasters is so wrong. The angle it holds it at, the way the track piece then goes completely vertical instantly, it's all glaringly inaccurate 😅

Hopefully they can fix it, when they (hopefully) release a 8x2 (oblivion) or 6x3 (baron 1898/kraken) dive coaster model

I would love more train types as well! I really hope this coaster model can be overhauled. Oblivion is one of my most favourite coasters in the world and there's something about the classic dive coaster trains that has a charm.
