In RCT1 and RCT2, paths can be constructed using the path builder window, in the center of the topbar. There are 2 kinds of paths: [[Queue Lines]] and normal paths.
 
Queue lines are built from ride entrances and allow people to queue for rides. In the [[RCT1|original RCT]], all queue lines were blue. [[Corkscrew Follies/Added Attractions|Corkscrew Follies]] allows the building of green, red and yellow queue lines. When a queue line connects to an entrance and a normal path, a banner displaying either "closed" or the ride name will appear at the head of the queue line.
Line 25:
Paths can be built in 2 ways in RCT1 and 2. A first, direct method allows you to place path square by square, but only on flat and sloped terrain tile (not diagonal slopes or edges). Path tiles automatically connect to adjacent path tiles, forming continuous paths. Sloped paths only connect to paths on the top or bottom edges, 2 sloped paths running side by side never connect. Ground paths cost $10 in the original RCT, [[queue lines]] $12, but both were revised to $12 in Loopy Landscapes. You can delete paths by right-clicking on them. The refund is always $10 regardless of what the path originally cost.
 
You can also change the path style or type of existing paths that way. This applies even to underground or elevated paths. There are also different types of structures for support when building paths above ground and for tunnel entrances when underground. Replacing a path with a different type/style costs $6.
 
The second method allows you to select the head tile, i.e. where you start building the path, and allows you to add paths linearilly section by section. You specify the direction using the arrow buttons.
