I just noticed the balcony floor... That's the best idea in the screen.

Cheers guys. I had a good night last night where ideas just clicked. Makes up for the night before where I had no inspiration and I ended up removing any things.

Liampie: Cheers. Sorry u dont like the walls. The hedges were pretty handy since using the four mazes you can add 4 new wall types to LL. However I tried using mazes to make thinner ride queues but while the edge walls are fine, if you use a wall in the middle of the tile then they glitch when you lower them

Posix: Thanks man. always good to get a positive comment from you

K0ng: cheers too. I actually almost made it by accident. I meant to clone them into walls. and then thought. Actually that's quite nice on its own

RMM: It's a new idea for me I certainly haven't seen it done before. But it doesn't surprise me that it has been done elsewhere though.

JDP:

RMM, I won't believe you until I see reference.

posix, i won't post a screen of my own use of them due to the 'unfinishedness'. i have a feeling you'd try to tell me that i just threw them together to steal an idea. i first seen them stacked from ][ntamin in one of his asian themed screens. they're in the dump somewhere and i think he had a topic for it. he used them to stack underneath paths along the waters edge. and in his area in one of those unfinished group LL parks. in no way am i taking a shot at roomie though.

This is the ][ntamin one I assume?
Fair enough RMM

Anyway on to today's screen.

I may use this hack somewhere but I need to fix a few things with it first. (look closely if you can't figure out the hack).

nice one. good luck with getting the timing right etc

Half the train facing forward and half facing backward? This is just stupid good shit your doing now if what I see is correct

Looks interesting but hard to understand, for what reason?

half the train is forward, half is backward.

How the heck did you get that working?

That is fantastic! Shoestring?

LL is roomies bitch, plain and simple

You are correct. The train is split half and half, forwards and backwards. This is a fairly tough hack to pull off as Levis Indicated. Mainly because its impossible to do it using just one train (unless you have a heartline coaster then its easy to do like so)



However to do it with 2 coasters you have to shoestring them on identical underground tracks. However I believe its possible to solve the main issue of the 2 cars ghosting through each other by making the underground shoestrings MUCH longer (25 to 3). This means that when the 3 cars on the actual ride go through the loop they will be barely affected as they take up a much lower % of the over all momentum. Its difficult to find a level that makes them not ghost while still making they physics look believable though.

did that make sense to anyone?

^not a single bit

@Roomie: how about if I ever want this, you do it for me.

nah it makes perfect sense. its an easy planned out hack it just takes a lot of patients and attempts.
-JDP

"lots of patients and attempt" makes me sound like some crazed doctor

I'm not one to point out spelling mistakes (I make them all the time) but it made me laugh.

Yeah, I was pretty sure you weren't a doctor
