Frontier "accidentally" showing the cablecars was just a matter to start a speculation-thread like this in my opinion. "Accidents" like that (having TWO cablecars on both sides of the screenshot is just too obvious to be a mistake) normally don't happen in a company in which all published screenshots are controlled by multiple people. If it was a mistake ... what a bummer [big grin].
Yes, Sam did mention in the stream that they have dificulties to program some certain rides in the engine because of engine or coding issues. That's why we don't have the (much needed) shuttle mode for the monorail at the moment. I guessed it would be difficult to program the cables of the cablecar go down due to the weight of the cable-cars but as it seems from the screenshots the cables don't bend down due to cable-car-weight. They are just in a straight line. I personally don't need cablecars as I haven't ever seen one in any theme park I visited so far (neither Europe, US, Australia nor Asia), but I am very happy for those who really waited for them and I might build one or two myself.[big grin] What I really would want in future are more water rides (not slides)[big grin].
One thought I just had was that the cablecars or another ride MIGHT be one of the milestones for the charity stream but I don't know nothing and don't want to speculate again. [big grin]
So far I am quite happy about the new DLC, you can see that a lot of work went into detail (like working mechanisms). For the future I hope for more water rides and rides with smaller foundation. I also hope for more ride animatronics like those traps from the Adventure DLC i.e.[big grin]
