| ''Gold Rattler'' is a relatively compact track design created with the intention of pushing the Wooden Wild Mouse coaster type to its specified limits. It is designed to bleed off the speed of each train through sheer ride length alone such that they will always enter the station well below the 48 km/h crash threshold. The original design was never used in any park before it was further developed by Ancient Dynamics. Changes to the original design consisted of an extension to the final segment of the ride, so that it now twists and turns below and around—instead of merely orbiting—the earlier segments (which increases ride length and causes the trains to bleed off even more speed) before connecting to the station platform and moving the ride entrance and exit to more strategic positions, such that constructing a pathway out, while retaining a decent queue path length, requires either going above or below the final section of the ride, which almost always translates into a slight boost for the ride's excitement rating. Amazingly, despite these modifications, Ancient Dynamics was still able to reduce the length and width of the entire track profile by one tile of space, thus making it even more compact whiledespite lengtheningincreasing itride length. The refined track design was first used in conjunction with several Support Structures and Mine Theming objects (that do not come as standard with the track design) in Cloudburst Creek.
