We’re all very busy currently, working on many different parts of the game at once and it feels like we’re getting lots of good stuff done. It’s exhausting, but that’s alright :)
We finally found a look for flowing water that we’re satisfied with:
The object deletion tool was improved to allow deleting stuff much faster, which is mostly useful for scenery. Simply hold and drag the mouse around after right-clicking an object to only delete objects of the same type/from the same category:
And we added the first park utility building, the Staff Room:
For now it’s simply a place for staff to take a break so they don’t have to hang out on benches with the park guests.
And another first: we added the first dark ride, the Ghost Mansion Ride!
It’s a slow ride with self-powered trains.
The cars can rotate into any direction as defined by the track designer:
Similar to brake segments the segment length influences the rotation speed, so you’ve got a bit of control over that. For example here’s a rotation on a short segment:
And the same rotation on a longer segment:
This ride is more limited in its build options compared to big coasters with their loops and whatnot, but having this rotation option makes it still interesting. Pretty happy with it overall :)
