Nope. It was also happening before I replaced the default ramp. I walled it on both sides before because I noticed some people who would inexplicably wander out of the path at that point, it was weird. Just got rid of the sloped entry entirely and that fixed it.

[Anonymous No.8139541]

>>8139531
The fences were a response to the problem already underway. The weirdest part to me is that other guests were coming and going as far as I know. They were certainly entering and I think more would have been pissed if they couldn't leave. The simplest explanation is that a path modification in the adjacent space had for some reason let some guests down and they were actually clipping under the ramp the whole time unable to get to the edge of the ramp that lets them walk on it. I had actually forgotten the one default tile of path ramp that sloped up from the entrance until after this started so that's why I think it's from changing the next one over. Overwriting path STILL should not have this effect though.

How does Nausea even work? They'll throw up when their meter is too high, but how much of the meter does each point of nausea on a ride accrue?

Guests will go on rides above their nausea tolerance by some margin. A ride that will always thoroughly nauseate should be in the upper range of acceptable tolerances.

this shit changes with every OpenRCT2 guest AI change. But you should be fine with multi-wide paths as long as you're not playing RCT1. You should still go 2-wide on main pathways, maybe 3+ if it's a main intersection. Also a good way to reduce crowding is to find ways to "store" guests. Food courts with lots of benches, long lines for the newest rollercoaster, high-capacity rides... find ways to get guests out of the way.

Guests start to lose happiness after four minutes on a ride, if I recall correctly, and splash boats with multiple drops can push into ludicrous excitement. I don't recall if you get benefit for over four minutes worth, though. Does someone have the splash science image? I don't think it even got into truly pushing the limits because that was about pure profit - quickly pushing guests through something they'll pay a fuckton for.

I would use a lift just cause muh ride experience with more than one big drop.

[Anonymous No.8154225]

I just use a lot of consecutive drops on splash boats. If the boat hits a drop, it can ascend to the top of an immediate hill that's 1 or 2 units lower than the previous drop without employing the chain on the ascent much if at all, just goes up by pure momentum. They lose speed very fast so I try not to put turns or unnecessary track between drop and climb to avoid wasting the short-lived momentum.

[Anonymous No.8154232]

>>8154225
Yeah, I once maxed out splash boats with successive max height+terrain drops. It can get over 14 or 15 excitement.

Speaking of splash boats, do scenarios that ask for X number of rollercoasters mean strict rollercoasters, or will tracked rides in general actually work toward the goal? This sounds dumb because it literally says rollercoasters, I'm just wondering if a loophole exists.

[Anonymous No.8154247]

Can't help you about the specifics of that video, but this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UKKaTGwIqc is a video by the guy who did RCT1 and 2's graphics himself. Looks like some people in the comments asked him this same question about the assets; sounds like he does still have the original models saved somewhere, but he can't release them because they're still under copyright. A bummer, but might make you feel a little better knowing they're not lost to time yet

>>8176342
They're not really apples to oranges, they are different ways to get up to speed to send the ride through the course in a timeframe you want it to.
>>8175664
My opinion in the matter is that booster runways are "better" in that they get the same speed faster, but there are significant tradeoffs that you have to consider. They will generally cap out at a lower speed than a medium-height build of the ride would be able to drop to (and much lower than a tall rendition of the ride) but can still get it through a fair amount of track. The other thing is that a booster runway makes a ride take a fuckton of park space. The throughput you gain from it will only be a little bit higher.

Boosters have their uses but I usually stick to lift hills. Boosters are for shuttle, small circuit, and novelty coasters. Lifts are for everything conventional. I feel like every ride being able to use boosters in OpenRCT2 cheapens them. I've even seen wooden coasters with boosters in random servers... that's just sacrilege.

To be fair, that's obviously a cheat in effect because woodies don't get it even in OpenRCT2. Inverted coasters also never get them, it all just seems to be things that should have them. As far as I know, the only two it added them to that never had them before are the Water Coaster (which is weird but they're shitty Junior boosters anyway) and Vertical Drop.

Did OpenRCT2 change something about the reverser or have I finally figured out how to make one that doesn't completely suck?
