Gorgeous layout. Love the Immelmann.

Beautiful; one of the smoothest layouts I've seen so far. With scenery this thing would look simply incredible!
Keep up the great work

Thanks for the kind words! I'm still deciding if I want to use this as a start to my first Alpha 2 park, or continue experimenting with the coaster editor.

really nice. the immelmann is really good & also the corkscrew. btw is it just me or does the griffon coaster has a friction problem? all my drop coaster creations are really slow after some time.

Ye they reduce speed faster it seems ive noticed it to. But maybe that's why drop coaster are kinda short in real life to?

Thanks! I also noticed the same thing with the slow speeds. That's why half of my coaster is underground! [haha] I also found that adding more cars to the train increases the speed a bit. Another minor issue is that you lose a bit of speed because the train stops too low on the holding drop. The only other thing I can think of in real life why they lose a lot of momentum is due to the extra wind resistance.

Ye your right and its also realy heavy which still gives more friction then a normal coaster car. Even if it's minimal it's still there.

I actually never found it strange it did reduce speed faster. I thought it was realistic
