Water Ride/Water Ride Elements Wish List

Hey guys,

Sorry if there's another thread like this, but I thought it might be a good idea to post what we'd love in terms of water rides. They're on par with coasters in my book and I'd love to see more!

I'll get the ball rolling with two basic types...

First is the two-across flume.

And second is the classic shoot-the-chutes style ride with 4-across boats.

It'd also be great to be able to do a double-down on all water rides!

Please add to the list!
 
I would love to have the interactive shooting raft ride like at Dollywood called River Battle that Mack Rides developed. It doesn't have drops or any high thrills... it's more of a gentle ride. But something that allowed us to create a water ride that guests shot at each other with water cannons as well as interactive targets along the course of the ride that also shot water back at riders.
 
I would like to see an update that gives us some more advanced tools to create water rides with. The current system works great for generic water rides, but not for ones found in most theme parks. For example, we cannot currently merge water rides into bodies of water, merge them into terrain, which makes it difficult to create realistic theme parks water rides.

I also like the suggestions in the first post. For my suggestion, I would like to see a spinning station for the rapids ride. This makes these rides much more efficient and is much more realistic to the majority of rapids rides.
 
Good ideas. Especially the integration into bodies of water!

I'd also like to see reversing tables like they had from the original RCT.

Also, Mack Water coasters are commonplace these days...

I would love some simple boat rides a la Small World or Pirates of the Caribbean. Something that can seat a lot of people, go down small drops but isn't a super fast ride or anything and is more scenery based.
 
I say go all out with a full water park expansion. It should have body slides, water coasters (Like Crush 'n' Gusher at Typhoon Lagoon), raft slides, splash pads, lazy rivers, swimming pools, wave pools, artificial beaches, and so on. In addition, changing rooms would need to be provided so guests could change to their swimsuits.
 
I'd like to have the ability to have the a lift hill and drop hill in one fluid motion like the final lift and drop at Disney's Splash Mountain.
 
I am disappointed by the current water rides.
It's not about the lack of rides, it's about the gameplay.
Current water rides feel like flat darkrides with the occasional pre-built drop. Rapids are a joke. I feel like if there has been zero improvement since RCT1.

The reason I like rollercoaster games is because I like to play with the physics. Kinetic energy, potential energy, and all the cool stuff you can do with it.

I would like some meaningful gameplay for the water rides.
I want to play with the fluid dynamics.
I would like to see the boat's speed influenced properly by water flow : changing the river's width, adding or removing water with pumps or with secondary reviews to divert some of the flow away or merges to boost flow.

Adding bumps at the bottom of the river to create wild rapids, choosing their individual shape and location for specific effect.
Having water splashes, waterfalls and toys actually influence the ride rating in a meaningful way (water rides need a "wet factor" rating).

In short : I don't want water skins, I would like some new gameplay !
 
Getting wet

I know I ride rapids to get wet, and when I get out there is usually a nice shirt & towel shop... food for thought.. anyways I'd like to see waterfall elements added. I have the sprays & water streams and I like those too but a good drenching on one side of the boat is needed. is there a planet coaster water park add-on?
