Description
The Living Coaster is an Arrow prototype built in the early 90's that features a lift hill forwarded by a launch section. The coaster features funny interactions with the logflume ride and the starflyer. The park is coming soon as a design! : )

Custom flat seems way too big, but maybe it's accurate to irl. This is nice actually, everything does what it needs to do. Log flume is possibly a little too long/does some weird things (eg the steep drop into splashdown that's about 30ft in the air)
I'd like to know how that building thingy by the car ride looks from another ang... nevermind.
Really lovely! Steve has a point about the logflume layout, but the rest looks very nice to me. Coaster seems weird but since it's a fantasty prototype that doesn't really matter, actually I appreciate that approach, that element of fantasy in an otherwise very realistically styled park. Like Bubbsy says the name is kind of weird but I like it. Looking forward to checking out the finished park!
this looks great
Almost everything in this screen is weird. Not in-your-face weird, but definitely weird. It's consistently weird though, which makes it great. Interesting stuff!
That custom flat is gorgeous.
Loved seeing this area develop in Server 1, I love the concept of the ride, although the layout could be better...
I love how you're always building in your own style! Improve it, but not change it!
very interesting
Thumbs up.
@Liampie Yeah I agree that this is weird, because I'm probably a little bit weird myself XD, but still glad that you enjoyed it.
@Stoksy & Mintliqueur The log flume is one of the longest and tallest of Europe. I was inspired by the uglyness of the layout of Silver River Flume at Port Aventura. I agree nonetheless that it could have been better to make it closer to the ground or have more water around it. Thanks a lot for the feedback!
@Louis! if you want you can have fun and change the layout on S1
@Others Thanks for the nice comments!
The two different arm lengths of the custom ride are rather highly disturbing.
Agree with liam and louis; the layout just mingles through the landscape and not that particularly exciting.
@Poke I understand but it wasn't made to be a great ride. I'm maybe masochist but I like to do shitty roller coasters. XD
You can't see this here but the launch is forwarded by a little "bump" that leads directly into a drop. That's maybe the only interesting element of the coaster.
While I agree that making strange coasters can be kinda fun, there reaches a limit where it's just boring and the excuse of "it wasn't meant to be a great ride" doesn't really make sense.
@CoasterCreator9 Yeah I get what you're saying and I understand it, but I don't get bored doing this, I've spend so much time making realistic layouts that I'm now going for semi-realism creations. Sorry to hear that you find it boring, hope that it's not the general feel. I really like the fact that the park has some crappy and cheap rides (the 5D Cinema has some shitty projections, Renegade, the Capriolo booster ride is always closed due to bad maintenance, the Arrow coaster is weird, etc..). The park can't afford a new coaster for the moment, but rumors say that their next addition will probably be a B&M coaster...
Thanks everybody for the comments and the constructive criticism!
