I searched the Planco 2 forums, but unlike on reddit, I couldn't find any topics regarding this issue. After months I just started playing Planet Coaster 2 again. (Only played it a couple of hours after release last year).
First thing I noticed was: Where the heck is the scenario editor?! Which was super confusing, as this is something that was added to the first game. And obviously is missed a lot of players. Hm. Strange. But I could live with that if there wasn't the main issue.
But once I started building my landscape I couldn't believe how incredibly awful the new landscape editor is, especially when it comes to interaction with water. What a total nightmare is this? After reading through a couple of threads online it seems like this was adopted from Planet Zoo. But honestly: Why? I used to LOVE creating landscapes and super natural parks in Planco1. But now it is a total nightmare. The fact that the water blocks any kind of modification except for paint is just wrong. It is so counter intuitive now. Everything used to feel so natural and fun and easy. And now creating a nice landscape and especially areas where water and land interact it a complete hassle. Like beach areas or natural river beds. I just takes forever. Because I have to model the landscape. Add water. See if looks good or not. Remove the water. Change the landscape and then add water again to double check. I lost all my motivation with just a few hours.
Am I just blind? Is there a setting I can change to make landscaping fun again? If so: Please enlighten me. If not:
Dear beloved developers: I beg you, please please please bring back the old functionalities of the OG landscaping tool from Planco 1.
