Construction

Track is made up of two steel beams with cross sections in the middle(Similar to a Junior Roller Coaster). The supports are poles made out of steel. The water sections have steel lattice supports.

Special Track Elements

  • Banked Curves
  • Banked Helix
  • Water Sections (not noted in-game)

Constraints

  • Banked Curves - 50° banking
  • Maximum Track Slope - 60°
  • Maximum Lift Hill Slope - 25°
  • Maximum Height - 78 Feet

Vehicles

  • Coaster Boats
  • Manta Ray Boats (RCT 2 only)

Other Information

A mixture of a roller coaster and a water splash ride. The boats run on rails, allowing fast spiral turns and steep drops, which can be enhanced by carefully positioned water splash sections.

The "water splash" sections can only be level track, either straight segments or standard-radius curves.

Oddly enough, in Loopy Landscapes, the Water Coaster is listed only as a water ride and can be invented only under the category of 'Thrill Ride'.

In Real Life

The design is based on Premier's Liquid Coaster. RCDB Entry Template:RollerCoaster Tycoon Rides & Attractions
