I’ve been starting to play around with rct2 and am amazed at some of the dense examples I’ve seen - this game is really deep!
I’m still using the premade rollercoasters (honestly, just getting the pathing right for them is complex enough!!) and am really struggling to get the ramps to connect without massive amounts of stuffing around. I’ve only just realised with the elevated ones I can have the path coming off them remaining elevated which tends to help with the pathway / track collisions, but I’m not even sure how I did it!
I hate sitting through mindnumbing YouTube videos as typically they’re completely uninsightful (rct2 might be a different situation, I suppose, especially being a beginner), I feel like jumping in and learning as I went might’ve been a mistake…
Are there some tips I’m missing and how the hell am I supposed to see the entrances and plan the paths without buying the coaster and hoping it going to work? (I’ve rebought the same thing several times when I can’t get it working!)
Cheers
Ah, I understand what you mean now. Because of the complex coasters you get stuck trying to get “out of” the spiderweb of tracks. Yep, that can be hard. It also doesn’t help that the game is a isometric top-down 2D pixel game. :D
As Die4Ever already said, your best bet is probably the bridge building mode and working your way out from the entrance, and rotate the view while you wiggle your way out.
