Entrances and exits[edit | edit source]
Entrances and exits are what allow guests to enter and exit the rides. A queue is a special type of pathway that is used to connect the entrance of a ride to the normal pathway, and the exit is connected just with a normal path. In the first 3 editions of the RollerCoaster Tycoon series, once the player places a ride, they must also place the entrance and exit on any of the sides of the ride. In RollerCoaster Tycoon World, however, the entrance and exit are automatically placed as soon as the player places the ride. The entrance of a ride consists of a small cylinder building next to the pathway where the guests can 'pay' for the ride. In the first 2 editions of the series, the path of the entrance is inside of a building with a pointed top. The exit consists of simply a gate in RCT3 and RCTW, while it consists of a small building that guests walk through in RCT1 and RCT2.
Riding rides[edit | edit source]
In RCT3 and RCTW, the player is able to ride nearly all of the rides available in the game. This can be accessed by clicking on a ride, and then clicking the circle in the middle of the ride's description. The player is able to choose from a variety of angles when riding a ride, such as the back of the ride, front of the ride, or outside of the ride. Additionally, they can switch the exact vehicle they ride in. This includes switching between different trains on coasters.
Ride types[edit | edit source]
Rides are organized differently in each RollerCoaster Tycoon edition.

Rollercoaster Tycoon Ride Prices
RCT3 had some roller coasters included which were either existing in one park only, experimental or made up. While I really thought the splitting coaster was real, it was made up. The robotic arm roller coaster was in fact real (http://www.kuka-entertainment.com/en/). I really enjoyed the splitting coaster, as it was in fact a dual coaster merged into one roller coaster. I really liked building it. I didn't really liked the robotic arm, as I thought it wasn't realistic and too strange, even though it really exists.
Personally I wouldn't mind having non existing / experimental rides and roller coasters in the game, as long as they are realistic and plausible.
What are you guys thoughts on including these types of rides?
