The Log Flume in RollerCoaster Tycoon

Log Flume
Type	Water Ride
Description	Log cars move slowly along the water channel, until they plummet down long drops; guests will get wet.
Cost	$1,320 upwards
Size	Medium-Large (actual size depends on construction)
Appearances	RCT, RCT2, RCT3

Construction

Water flume track supported by box-section steel supports. Boats are propelled up slopes on rollers, and they are then free to travel along the water channel at their own pace.

Constraints

Maximum track slope - 25°
Maximum height above ground - 39 feet

Other Information

Log Flumes must be designed carefully, or they can go on forever. A Log Flume's only speed comes when it goes downhill, otherwise it goes at the boring pace of 2-3MPH. Use the slow times to develop a theme, and then climax with a big drop to keep guests coming back.
