Lazy River not used.

[MrAdrianSW]

Okay. Iv tested a few times, not too sure what the issue is.
But guests for the most part will not use the Lazy River.
Iv seen maybe 2 or 3 people use it, but out of Thousands, that seems like a bit of an issue.

Maybe Im doing something wrong?.

Iv tried:

• Attaching it to a populated swimming pool.
• A completely separate pool.
• Adding a shallow 'Entry' point (the guests will stand in the shallow area, but wont move into the Lazy River flow itself).
• Spamming ungodly amounts of Scenery around it.
• Using the Infinity pool type for the edges (1 side, and both sides).
• Swearing at it.

Lazy rivers basically don't work at the moment. To make it functional, you're forced to make the entire length swimming depth. Shallow ramps will break the functionality and turn it into a regular pool. And without shallow ramps, guests have to jump in and climb out from the sides which isn't realistic at all.

Another user posted this suggestion which I think fixes the issue by forcing guests into floats to prevent them from wading in shallow areas. We will see how Frontier addresses this problem, hopefully soon!

Force Floaties Option

Please add a check box option for pools to force people to use floating devices. It is sorely needed for lazy rivers. No one should be swimming in a lazy river. A "require floatation device" option.
