Waterslide question,

[BNA]

Will you be able to open & run a waterslide without an end piece? I want to be able to build custom waterslides where you can launch guests through the air into the pool

There was a pool I went to as a kid that, alongside the normal flumes, had one that was just a 45 degree drop to get you up to ludicrous speed and then just ended in mid-air above the dive pool next to the high diving board. It was great.

Great question.

Please add flume ends which can be angled or perfectly straight but can be added to an angled flume section.

Since it's on topic. I've also been wondering lately about the height of the drop into the water. We know fear, nausea and excitement are relevant on the flumes. So will some guests be able to handle death defying 50m drop or will we have a strict 'must be close to the water' scenario?

Kinda like this?

It went outside the building and came back in, the end of the chute (once you'd built up speed) was just a near-horizontal pipe so you got a fair amount of air time too. Hard to make out the scale on that photo but it was level with the lower of the two diving boards you needed a ladder to get up to, I don't know if those things are a standard height.

In one of the video's Frontier made I already thought the slide was pretty high above the water. I didn't notice any restriction where the game would say "too high above the water" or anything.
Im pretty sure it's perfectly possible what you want.
