Key Strategies
Generate a positive cash flow as soon as possible
Evaluate everything in your park right from the beginning and make sure it is open and can generate income. Assign janitors to high traffic areas and put trash bins throughout the park. Give mechanics a patrol area that includes rides or attractions that may already be broken down — and make sure mechanics also inspect attractions. And don’t be afraid to sell what you don’t need.
Make sure the basics are covered
Be sure to offer your guests the necessities: food, drink and (of course) toilets. Moderately thrilling attractions appeal to a wider group of peeps.Your park may also be rewarded for good use of shade trees (for arid climates) and shelter (for rainy climates). Plants and entertainers boost the spirits. Adequate lighting is a must to satisfy nighttime visitors.
Don’t do too much too soon
Take your time! Building an amusement park is like caring for a house plant. A little trimming here… a little nourishing there… let the processes have their intended effects.Then, add a few things at a time. Success in some scenarios requires you to expand the park to grand degrees, but if you try to do this too soon, you’ll spend all your cash and almost certainly fail.
Pause the game when building complex structures
By default, RollerCoaster Tycoon® 3 automatically pauses when you are constructing a track ride. But the clock keeps running as you place scenery, paths and build customized structures. Pause the game and you can take your time to perfect your creations.
SHARING YOUR CREATIONS
Nearly everything you can create in RollerCoaster Tycoon® 3 can be saved and loaded in other scenarios and even saved and shared with other players. If RollerCoaster Tycoon® 3 was installed to the default location, the saved files can be found in the following directories:
Peeps
Create your group and turn them loose in other players’ parks.
filename.txt where filename is the name you assigned to the peep group you saved. Saved in the RCT3/Peeps folder within the My Documents Folder.
Coasters*
Let other players ride your coasters and test their nausea tolerance.
filename.trk where filename is the name you assigned to the coaster you saved. Saved in the RCT3/Coasters folder within the My Documents folder.
Structures
Express the architectural genius within.
filename.dat where filename is the name you assigned to a structure you saved. Saved in the RCT3/Structures folder within the My Documents folder.
