Hey there! There's something I've noticed recently, and I'd like to address it. It has to do with regarding "new coasters" added to the game. When you first looks at the coaster collection PlanCo has, it seems massive. Over 40 different coasters for us to play around with. After a while though, I've begun to see that some aren't all that different.
For example, the boomerang coasters
As you can see, there's practically no difference between the two. The only "real" difference is that one has an Arrow train, and the other has a Vekoma train. And yet they are shown as two different coasters.
Just so I don't have to keep posting images, more examples of this same type of thing are:
-Floorless and Standup B&M coasters
-Wooden coasters
-Family coasters
-B&M inverted coasters
-B&M Giga and Giovanola hyper
-Arrow and Vekoma looper
..these are a few examples of these "cloned rides".
My question is why do this? Because at times, it makes the train swap a useless function. Why not have something like in RCT? I'll give an example:
Let's say you want to build a sit down looper. You place it down, and you see how it has the American Arrow train on it. But lets say you want the Vekoma or Bolt train on it. You go to customize, click on a drop down menu, and select the train from there. That way, you have all the different styles of trains in one group, instead of creating yet another entire coaster dedicated to that one train.
It eliminates cloned rides. And, in a way, could allow for future unique coasters to fill up those spaces. Ones that aren't the same exact ride but with a different train.
I know this isn't that big of a deal, but it's something I wanted to point out and know your thoughts on.
