1) Weather collision for rides
- examples: bumpin derby and helter skelter both have rain going through their coverings
2) Textures (as so many others have mentioned)
- Example: The wood textures looked considerably better in the first PlanCo
3) Addition to slide physics, the physics when peeps exit a slide into a pool
- peeps stop forward motion as soon as they hit the pool water, RCT3 had them correctly still moving forward and slowing down as they came back up to the surface
4) Add back in a lot of the "vanilla" theme items that I am greatly missing
- The iron square lamppost, the uplight and the boxlight with the round bulb (The iron lampost was considered western but to me it looks more like something used everywhere as in the image at Kings Island below with a version used)
- the smooth and rough concrete texture building pieces
[smooth concrete, rough concrete, gray path]
- Chain link and Wooden privacy style fences that parks use everywhere
5) Additional path options
- Make the smooth and rough concrete textures also path textures
- Make all the path textures able to be used in the 3 different categories, ie, allow staff paths to be dirt or gravel textured
- ability to remove curbs for paths
- bring back the 'gray' texture that was an option for queue paths in PlanCo
6) Bring back ability to add more and remove sequences from rides instead of having a fixed amount that can be changed
7) Integrate a full 24 hour day and allow players to set the park open and close times as they so desire, allowing the staff scheduling to adjust to said hours.
- Could also mandate a second break if a shift is longer than a certain amount of hours
8) Bring back ability of fireworks to do preview shots when placing so it is easier to see the affects like in PlanCo. Having to place and manually play to see how it will look now is not user friendly
9) I know custom media has been said will be put into the game but I want to say it is something I am still definitely wanting. It would also be nice to include the ability to 'program' speakers and video boards by adding more than one piece of music or video. Maybe how PlanCo ride sequences could be added or done away with, allow for players to add songs and videos in a queue by additional drop down boxes, even if limited to a max of 3 or 5 per media player item.
10) Please please please address the UI concerns and critiques of the community/fans
11) Incorporate half arches with the below style - the 'thin half arch' from PlanCo - into the different wall types
12) Bring back old favorites in future DLCs
- The loved entertainers like Amelie, Renee, Captain, Tiki, Foxy, Elly, Dex-R, and the holiday iterations of the king (with queen now too!)
- The classic themes of western, pirate, spooky, winter/Christmas, fairytale, etc. etc.
- Themed centerpiece objects (I absolutely loved the original teacups centerpiece and hope it's an option in the future for me to attach to the teacups)
13) Security as another option for players to utilize
14) Modular shops as were created in PlanZoo
- Maybe modular restaurants as well
This is all I can think of for now but I will edit should anything else come up.
UPDATE 12/30/24:
So I got into a car wreck on my way home from a very stressful shift at work last night which meant hyper stress levels that kept me from sleeping so... I got to thinking about Planet Coaster stuff. (Yes all persons involved were fine but my car got hurt badly)
15) Personally I would like to see the guest services of First Aid and ATMs be implemented back into the experience. And with the new pool-lifeguard distressed peeps feature, First Aid room could be utilized for treating something related to in addition to the nausea factor. Give the guest an all clear before can get back into the water per say.
16) I loved the detail of the staff used building interiors from PlanZoo and was surprised this wasn't carried forward for Staff buildings and the mechanic buildings in PC2. It has been these attention to details from previous FDev planet series that have actually given me and other players joy. Even the little things matter.
17) Include more affect previews with things overall. Just like the above mentioned preview of fireworks when placing as they do in PC1, do so with other things being placed that have an AoE. I'm looking at the lifeguards placement, have another shaded area when placing lifeguards that shows where other placed lifeguards already have coverage so you don't have to constantly place one, exit and look at total pool safety coverage, go back and choose lifeguard and place one, exit again and look at updated total pool safety coverage.... on and on..and on. So many things when designing, building, placing are just so aggravatingly tedious and too many steps to accomplish complicated.
18) I admit this is a very minor and unimportant thing but the lifeguards attire... Female guards look like they are wearing men's swim trunks as well and all are wearing shirts when they jump in the pool. Shirts add more weight and friction and don't look right in the pools. Again, very minor detail but, a detail nonetheless.
