Breakdown: Difference between revisions - RollerCoaster Tycoon Wiki

Line 6:

This is the most common breakdown, and affects most rides. The details of the breakdown are not explained, but it has a number of effects. If the ride consists of trains or cars that are powered by the track, such as a [[Monorail]] or [[Car Ride]], those vehicles will stop moving. If the ride is a roller coaster that consists of a lift hill, trains being pulled up the lift will stop once a breakdown occurs. In all cases, trains waiting to exit the station will not be allowed to depart until the breakdown is addressed, even if they have exceeded their maximum wait time. This break down can result in a crash if a roller coaster has a part where a train is moving really fast but then goes up a chain lift hill because the car could get stuck on the hill while another car will collide into it. The term 'Safety Cut-out' is used in ''RollerCoaster Tycoon'' and ''RollerCoaster Tycoon 2'', while the term 'Emergency Stop' is used in ''RollerCoaster Tycoon 3''.

===Restraints Stuck Open/Closed===

===Restraints / Doors Stuck Open / Closed===

This breakdown occurs when the safety restraints on a ride either are stuck open after a train has loaded and is preparing to leave the station, or if the restraints are stuck closed as a train arrives in the station. The only difference between the two is that when the restraints are stuck open, guests who have already been around the circuit of the ride can exit. However, they are stuck until the ride is fixed if the restraints are stuck closed.

This breakdown occurs when the safety restraints on a ride either are stuck open after a train has loaded and is preparing to leave the station or if the restraints are stuck closed as a train arrives in the station. The only difference between the two is that when the restraints are stuck open, guests who have already been around the circuit of the ride on another roller coaster can exit. However, they are stuck until the ride is fixed if the restraints are stuck closed. For monorails, the breakdowns are "Doors Stuck Open" and "Doors Stuck Closed," respectfully.
