I failed to become a Rollercoaster Designer…

Ойын-сауық

Ever thought of becoming a rollercoaster designer? So have i. After meeting one a few years back, the legend that is John Wardley who has designed rides for Alton Towers, Thorpe Park and more, i asked him what the best way into the coaster design industry was, and he replied to first learn No Limits 2. So that's what im going to do today. Watch as i (horrendously) build a rollercoaster using a professional software, for the first time.

    Pro tip: straight track is easy, click twice on those blue orbs and select the strict option. Do that for the next blue orb as well and the track between those 2 orbs is perfectly straight. As mentioned earlier, select heartline on the trains tab in the coaster settings.

    I hope you're going to make more yt content on nolimits2 since it's really fun to see you use it. Also, i recommend watching a few tutorials on more advanced parts of NL2 first so you really know what every different tool does. I also did the same thing and became pretty decent at building coasters

    @digitaldan you input the forces you want the ride to pull and then it designs the track around that, you can then export and import the track into nl2 and it’s almost perfect with very little smoothing/editing. It’s harder to learn than nl2 imo but im also smooth brain.

    Two tools you *really* need to use: "Strict" nodes: Double click a node, and set it to "strict". If two adjacent nodes are strict, then the gap between them is perfectly straight. "Depump Verticies": Highlight an area of track, and under the Element tab select Depump Verticies. This will modify the selected track to make it nice and smooth, removing the janky transitions in your current coaster.
