CREATING LION AND TIGER SHOWS

When you add a lion or tiger show, it will come with a default show. You may customize the show by clicking on the attrac- tion, and clicking the MixMaster button (found in the lower- right corner of the attraction control panel). You may also add music and other show elements (such as fireworks) to a lion and tiger show.

Finally, add an entrance and exit, connect a path to exit and entrance and ‘open’ the show just like other attractions.

After you’ve placed the show, you can customize the show by clicking the RCT3 MixMaster button found in the Show control panel.

The RCT3 MixMaster sequencer interface allows you to choreograph moves in any order you want by clicking in the timeline. To preview the show, move the mouse backwards and forwards to ‘scrub’ through the sequence you’ve created or click the Play button. Save your show just like you save a firework shows.

RIDES WITH EXTRA FEATURES

The following are some of the coasters included in RollerCoaster Tycoon: Wild! that include extra features:

SPLITTING COASTER

The Splitting Coaster is designed as two sets of connected track, each of which supports its own independent vehicle or train of vehicles. The track is designed to split and recon- nect throughout the ride, and the seats can be fixed or rotating. See the Tutorials for instructions on how to build a Splitting Coaster.

TOWERING COASTER

The Tower Coaster track is based around a main tower structure, which incorporates a vertical lift hill and overhanging drop. The drop itself is so extreme that magnetic break-

ing systems in the tower are used to prevent the car from inducing forces of more than 6 Gs in its passengers.

ROBOTIC COASTER

This coaster uses a robotic arm with seats on the end, modified to run along a heavy Wild Mouse-style track. The robotic arm’s parameters may be set for each track piece. After building the track, select a track piece, and then click the Edit Robot Arm Angles button to show the settings selections panel of the Coaster construction panel.

Tick the Enable box and then choose the values for each of the four settings. The four settings are:

1.Seating Compartment Roll

2.Forearm Pitch

3.Upper-arm Pitch

4.Coaster Car Yaw

Modify the arm’s settings by clicking on the various spinners. The Robotic Arm will change position to reflect the settings.

Along the right edge of the panel are buttons that allow you to copy the values from the previous track piece, the next track piece or the reset the values to zero.

A blue ghost version of the arm will appear on the track pieces where the roll, pitch and yaw values are enabled and whose settings are different from the previous track piece.

As the arm travels along the track, it will move smoothly between the settings of one track piece and the next.

DIZZY DROPPER COASTER

The Dizzy Dropper coaster runs on a specially constructed ‘sideways’ track, giving the riders an unobstructed view out over the park. The cars are flown by autopilot.
