'''Boosters''' are a track component found in [[RollerCoaster Tycoon|RollerCoaster Tycoon 1]], [[RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic]] and [[OpenRCT2]]. As the name implies, it boosts the speed of the vehicle passing through it. The maximum speed is configurable in the same way one can configure brake speeds.
== History ==▼
* RollerCoaster Tycoon 1 supported boosters on the [[Looping Roller Coaster]] and the [[Corkscrew Roller Coaster]]. They were configurable up to 107 km/h (67 mph).▼
* RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 removed the component entirely. As a result, track designs with boosters from RollerCoaster Tycoon 1 cannot be imported. The booster's track ID was repurposed for the Spinning Control Track of the [[Spinning Wild Mouse]].▼
* RCT Classic, despite being based on RCT2, supports boosters on the [[Giga Coaster]], [[Twister Roller Coaster]], [[Junior Roller Coaster]], and
** The Twister Roller Coaster's boosters are stronger than the other coaster types. The Giga Coaster has the same booster strength but further supplemented by a doubled maximum speed of up to 135 mph (216 km/h).
* OpenRCT2 imports RCT1 and RCTC saves with boosters correctly and supports boosters on the following coaster types (any marked with a reference mark symbol ("※") denotes that the "Enable all drawable track pieces" cheat will unlock the booster track piece for it):
** [[Wooden Roller Coaster]] (available since v0.3.0)※
** Junior Roller Coaster
** [[Steel Mini Roller Coaster|Classic Mini Roller Coaster]]
** [[Mini Roller Coaster]]※
** [[Spiral Roller Coaster]]※
** Looping Roller Coaster
** Corkscrew Roller Coaster
** [[Hypercoaster]]
** Twister Roller Coaster
** [[Hyper Twister Coaster|Hyper-Twister]]※
** Giga Coaster
** [[Flying Roller Coaster]] (both inverted and upright positions) - boosters in upright position can only be accessed with the "Enable all drawable track pieces" cheat enabled.
** [[Air Powered Vertical Coaster]]※
** [[Hybrid Coaster]]※
** [[Water Coaster]]
