The '''Junior Coaster''' ([[RollerCoaster Tycoon 2|RCT2]]/[[RollerCoaster Tycoon 3|RCT3]]) or '''Steel Mini Roller Coaster''' ([[RollerCoaster Tycoon|RCT1]]) is a type of roller coaster. Especially in RCT1, it is often available to be built at the beginning of the scenario, and is generally less expensive to build than other roller coaster types.
 
Line 23:
*Ladybird Cars
*Log Cars
*Rocket Cars (RCT1 only, RCT2 moved these to the [[Mini Roller Coaster]])
*Rocket Cars
*Spinning Cars ([[RollerCoaster Tycoon]] only)
*Panda Cars ([[RollerCoaster Tycoon 2]] official addon)
Line 31:
===Operating Modes===
*Continuous circuit mode
*Reversed-Incline launched shuttle mode (RCT1 and OpenRCT2 only)
*Continuous circuit blocked section mode (RCT2 onwards)
===Pre-built designs===
Line 70:
*The Spinning Cars never made it to RCT2.
*The "Panda Cars" addon is not available in RCT1.
*In RCT2, the steep slopes of the RCT1 Steel Mini Coaster and the Rocket Cars were not on the Junior Coaster, but rather were put onto a new design, the [[Mini Coaster]], which can do steep drops, but can only run single-car trains. The maximum height of the Junior Roller Coaster was also lower than in RCT1.
*Probably due to the amount of incompatible changes compared to RCT1, RCT2 refuses to import Steel Mini Roller Coaster track designs from RCT1.
*OpenRCT2 restored steep slopes, the old maximum height and the reverse-incline launched shuttle mode on the Junior Roller Coaster. It also added support for importing track designs from RCT1, even with Rocket Cars.
