So ehhh, one of the four "impossible" scenarios has been solved by Banananana on my Discord server. Guests do need a path piece to go on a ride, but a ghost piece (a path piece that you're about to build but haven't yet) works for that too. So in Crazy Craters you can get some guests in the park, remove all the path, build a maze, and put a ghost piece in front of it to allow the guests to ride it. You need just two guests to get enough cash to build the path piece for real, after which you're in the same situation as Icicle Worlds. In Octagon Park and Pleasure Island you can research the maze, but by the time you get it the loan interest will have made you broke, so this strategy doesn't work there. And obviously for Micropark it doesn't work either. ------------------------- I guess my mind saw the abstract scenery pieces in Icarus Park as trees when I wrote this video, but of course you can remove those for money and get over €2000 to build whatever you want, putting it in the "plenty of scenery & path" category.

This is why I prefer pay for park scenarios, because the start of the scenario is where my money problems are at its peak.

After playing several scenarios, I have found that the micro corkscrew you suggest can not always be built that way. Sometimes (I forgot when) it needs an additional 3rd piece to get a two car train so that the thing works.

@MarcelVos

3 ай бұрын

That's only when you're playing an RCT1 scenario in OpenRCT2. In RCT1 vanilla that 2-station design does get a 2-car train, but OpenRCT2 apparently calculates the maximum number of cars a bit differently and limits the length of the RCT1-corkscrew train to just 1 car on a 2-station design. If you launch a 1-car RCT1 corkscrew train at 96 km/h you still get normal stats and can charge over 9 bucks for it (like I did in Tiny Towers).

Icarus Park actually has a bunch of scenery that you can sell to get started,so I should actually be in the same tier as Crazy Castle.

So hey I had an interesting question: What's up with the brown logo? I see that you use it in all your videos and it's on the wikipedia page, but *every* copy of Rollercoaster Tycoon I've ever seen had the Tycoon bubble highlighted in red. That'd make a pretty interesting short video. Where the hell do the brown, pink, and red versions of the logos come from?

All hail the track piece! All hail the track piece!

This is actually the only scenario I play. My current play through prohibits buying ads and restricts the variety of rides/stalls (1/25 rides need to be a different type).

What is the highest revenue/profit park you can make with no ride or stall duplicates?

amazing

Beating RCT with no money would be a challenge and a half, through might be alot easier if their are all ready rides in the park

Im pleasantly surprised, i genuinely whas like: yes, you can, you are making a video about it But then it turned out you couldn't

never thought to double the entry price while running half-priced entry ads

guessing the money ghost duplication glitch isn't allowed? (saving a tall rollercoaster with 6 height scenery basic block underneath it, then ghost build it, leaving the ghost scenery behind which can be deleted for money. Looking it up since it been years since I played, apparently there are different versions (unsure if they are referring to openrtc) where it was patched out. Edit: can't find video doing it, but you were able to drag the bug saved coaster across the map filling it all with the ghost block for big profit (too much the game crashes). Not referring to building a coaster to replace something.

You still need one path piece at the ride's entrance for the guests to go on the ride, although it turns out the "ghost" piece that appears when you're in path building mode still counts. That's how someone beat Crazy Craters. I'm guessing the other three scenarios are charge-for-rides ones so no amount of guests spawning can offset the fact that you can't afford a ride in the first place (due to loan interest and too expensive starting rides in Octagon Park and Pleasure Island, and the only path tile in Micro Park not giving you enough money to build any rides whatsoever).
