Round Three
http://rollercoasterpro.com/gallery/at/spinball/02.jpg
Objective:
[You are a designer that will build a layout for the manufacturer.]
A relatively large park, which attracts over 1.5M guests annually, is looking to build an adrenaline-filled spinning roller coaster attraction that offers mild to moderate thrills, to boost annual attendance. The coaster will be contracted to the firm of your [the designers] recommendation (i.e. - Maurer Shone, Mack, Gerstlauer, etc). The attraction must be in the range of 1200-1500ft in length. The park requests that the ride cycle at least 24 guests. You may decide how you want to achieve this: be it two trains, with three cars for 12 guests each, 24 total, or do six individual ride vehicles. You may even choose another configuration. It is your choice, however, if you use more vehicles, be sure to have the layout blocked accordingly so trains do not stagger.
There is no stagnant height limit, however the park says the lower the attractions height the more aesthetic the park retains. You cannot build track outside the boundaries indicated by the markers, but you may however add supports outside (provided you do not remove any trees/foliage). You may not alter the terrain. You may add as many trees as you like for visual illustration, but the park will be adding their own landscaping after the attraction is built.
To adequately fit the layout of the park, the station must be somewhere inside of the box marked with a purple "X".
Remember, build within the parameters the park asks, yet be creative and realistic!
Good Luck!
