Station Control Panel & Animated Floors for Floor-less Coasters

It has always been my dream in RCT to have a station control panel that allows me to Start/Stop cars individually, stop the lift, manually open/close the harnesses, and manually transfer coasters from the main track into the storage building.

Nolimits 2 is the closest thing I have ever seen to this, but the game itself is incredibly lacking due to the ability to ONLY create roller coasters, and no parks, flat rides, peeps, etc. (still an amazing simulation though)

This Video accurately shows what I mean by a control panel (be warned, it is excessively long, and not very exciting) but really gets the point across.


PART 2:

Transfer Tracks have been discussed on here quite a bit, but what about actual animated station floors? Logic programming is complicated (like for the control panel and transfer tracks) but what about a simple animation to drop the floors in stations right before a coaster departs?

This video from a demo in NoLimits 2 shows exactly what I mean, and I think add a lot more life to the stations themselves.

And here is a quick image of a different type of transfer track in case anyone is interested

I would really be interested in hearing you guys feedback! [squeeeeee]

You mean like this for the floor. Hoping for transfer - and sidetracks too.

I hope the animation is much slower than that [haha]

I agree 100%

Looking at the video, the sounds, and the speed at which the train departs the station, I can almost say for certain that the video itself is sped up, and the animation will be much slower in-game.

Why they did this for the video that is sposed to show off the animation? I have no idea.

Hopefully a Dev Team Staff Member can shed some light into it [squeeeeee]
