→Coaster Checklist
Line 27:
Although not theoretically needed, having the following components will help create a working, profitable coaster.
*At least
*Ride track that begins at the station platform's start and reconnects to the station platform's rear in a continuous loop (not neccesary if the operating mode is reverse inclined shuttle launch or powered launch, but make sure the train eventually reaches the station platform again in reverse).
*Medium incline track with pull chains (not needed with powered launch mode). In reverse inclined shuttle launches, put the pull chains behind the station platform. Steep chain lifts are possible.
*Initial slope downwards after the pull chain ends, to build speed and allows the cars to finish the circuit. Make sure the highest non-lifthill peak is lower than the lift hill peak.
*Banked track on curves to reduce excessive forces and tone down intensity.
*Special track pieces, also known as inversions (such as loops, helixes, etc.) to add to fun and excitement.
*Brakes before the station, if possible, to prevent crashes in brake failure breakdowns. Not necessary if only one train is used.
*Station Entrance.
*Station Exit.
