Thicker track spine for the Rage Coaster type

One thing that I have noticed lately is that the track spine for the Rage coaster ingame is very thin. Since it's very thin it looks quite awkward when built over 200ft. It would be nice to see a thicker variant of the track added to the game or a feature that allows for varying thickness of the track. Here are some examples of what Im talking about

It's been requested before, but don't hold your breath for it.
Not just the Rage, but the diameter of the spines on the new gen Intamins are noticeably smaller than what they should be (not to mention they don't have a single spine option). There aren't any two or three tube segment types for the old gen Intamins, no double spined track for the Vekoma looping coaster, no 4 tube segments for the Eurofighter, etc. Making the track meshes is a bunch of work, and so far, it seems like Frontier only makes extra normal segment meshes if the ride has a special pre-built segment that uses it (with the Vekoma swinging mine train being the only exception so far). It is highly unlikely that they will go back and add new track meshes to existing coasters. The best we can hope for is that when they go to make Planet Coaster 2, they do a little more research, and are able to spend resources making extra segment meshes.

Also, it'd look pretty odd for a B&M to go from a smaller box spine to a thicker one immediately. They should try to find a way to make the spine meshes to transition between the two sizes.
