Park Entrance Fees

[Kasrith]

So I have a problem with park entrance fees. It looks like they are not working well.

I have a park with over 1100 guests, 15+ rides, and all sorts of other goodies. It's doing very well, rated pretty highly, etc.
People are happily paying (and lining up) to pay $20.00 to ride just one of my attractions. So as a test I set my park entrance price to $10.00 and set all the rides to be free to ride. My park population fell to almost 200 within a single season as people constantly are "not paying that much to get into the park!"

Seriously? You were going into the park and spending $20.00 to ride a single ride! Now you can ride all of them endlessly with no additional cost and it's all of a sudden too expensive?

Its not working. Since Beta. And they didnt fix it. I hate to collect money for rides.... thats not how it's working in real life parks where ive been. I hope they fix it soon. I once had a park in beta 3 with 4 rides, each one with 1,50 - 4 $ and the park entree of 10 $... of course fast pass tickets for 15$. i made tons of cash. After changing to park entry 20$ and no ride fee no body was coming in. 15 rides means your park is huge and you need to take maybe 70 $ for the entrance, because your rides monthly costs are high and you want to make some money from it. The game needs balancing.
