Description
I haven't done a Raptor layout in a while, so I wanted to see what the track now looks like. Additionally, the small flat to steep pieces were implemented to allow for this layout (although not the corresponding lift sprites, or the diagonal variants).
I like how the corkscrews look but being so small I found them hard to fit into a full size layout. This ride type would really benefit from having a larger size corkscrew piece available, I think. - Full-Size

I like how you did the supports. Overall this looks sick. Also can't wait until this is implemented. Do you have any ETA for when this could be implemented into open? Or are there no plans for that yet

I don't plan to submit a PR for this until the RMC PR is merged, because I believe they would conflict. The RMC is completed as far as I'm concerned and I reopened the PR, but I'm not too hopeful that it will be merged soon. I can't say when it will be as that's up to the OpenRCT2 developers now.
If the RMC PR does get merged, there's a good chance this will be ready to submit straight after. I need to finish off the rest of the small steep to flat sprites, and fix the default supports to line up with the track, but everything else is pretty much done for this track.

The tight radius turns and other tight elements to make a tight layout have never worked better than with this track type. Unlike all the existing track types, this one is thin enough to make the compact layout look right. Very exciting.

This looks so awesome X7! Really looking forward to being able to use this and your RMC track. So great to see there are members being able to create this kind of new content.

The RMC track was merged yesterday, you can already use it. Just update to the latest develop build.
I hope to get this track merged as well at some point.

Glad the RMC track is finally "official". One question though, I notice there's only 2 color choices, how easy or difficult would it be to make the cross ties and ledgers recolorable? It looks great either way, but that would come in handy for those RMCs that have brown steel like Outlaw Run and Goliath.

The reason there's only two remap colors available is that the secondary remap color (track pieces can only have two as far as I can tell) is used for the wooden beams and is locked to match the support color. The default wooden coaster works around this by having the railings be a separate sprite while other default rides with wooden supports also have only two remap colors. This is way more complexity than it's worth to me because I don't think a second remap is really necessary - almost all IBox coasters IRL examples have them unpainted, Hakugei being the exception (Outlaw Run and Goliath are both Topper Track).
This was all discussed before the track was merged, and now that it has been it's very unlikely that I would go back and change the sprites, especially as it would result in saves made with the current version having their colors changed.
