Summary of updates / additions for alpha phase 2

Stef Stuntpiloot

S
I am looking at the stream now and tought it would be nice to have a summary so anyone can see the changes/additions for phase two in one spot. I find it quite difficult to find all information myself so I want to suggest using this topic for that cause and would like to ask for your help (readers) to complete this summary.

For clearity I suggest to use the structure of the streams so:

- Paths/buildings

  • Angled junctions (sharp corners will be possible)
  • Natural paths (as addition to normal paths)
  • Curved acents and decents
  • Stairs
  • better connectivity between paths and buildings
  • Changing textures on excisting paths

- Terrain tools

- Rides
  • Some new coasters (dont know which because I joined stream halfway)
  • Wood coasters will not be added before last phase (official release) because of complexity
  • A lot of rides will have "vanilla" versions so you have a basic ride to decorate
  • at least 3 new flatrides will be added
    • ferris wheel (Called Radius)
    • Zipper (Called Kick Flip)
    • Double Inverter (Called Insanity)
  • 14 coasters will be available
  • Enterance and exit control for station platforms
  • que gates (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSTq8gHXQ8Y)
  • Track length tool in track editor
  • Boosters
  • Improved loops/rolls
  • Scaleable loops/rolls
  • Station "air" gates will be added
  • Coaster test function
  • Auto complete function
  • Track colors can be modified

- Others
  • Guests react to rides and music
  • VFX effects can be added
  • Gulpee mascotte
  • complete XYZ pitch pan roll movement of objects

- Often requested but will NOT jet be added

Thanks for helping! I will add your additions to this first post​

Oh before I forget, stuff added here must be confirmed. This is not intended to be a wishlist just a convenient list for everyone in one spot.

While we are on that, can't the frontier crew help us out here? they should have a complete list for us. That would make this a lot easier for us.

  • Vecoma SLC / Giovanola / Two-seated B&M (Suspended Looping Coaster)
  • B&M Stand Up
  • Morgan Hyper Coaster
  • Arrow Looping Coaster (Corkscrew)
  • B&M Hyper

And yet, one major thing is still missing.....which bugges me a lot.

NO WATER!?!? I don't care about right physics for waterfalls but why no lakes... [cry][cry][cry][cry][cry][cry][cry][cry][cry][cry][cry]

  • Euro Fighter (On a B&M Track it looks like)
  • Vecoma SLC (Suspended Looping Coaster) This looked like it was on B&M style track (or possibly like this unique Giovanola inverted coaster). Maybe Vekoma suspended track isn't ready yet?

Although actually having said that, B&M have done a 2 across seater family inverted coaster recently in China.

I really want to know if boomerang coasters are possible. I'm kinda disappointed this hasn't been mentioned at all by the devs in the livestream or on the forum as far as I know. Did I miss something or will it just be impossible to do?

Calm down, if it's not ready it's not ready... When it is it will be added.

Coasters weren't ready but they added that :p People are spending a lot of time to make it look like they have water in their parks at the moment so any kind of "real" water (no matter how unfinished) would've been appreciated :)
