Ойындар

SUBSCRIBE: bit.ly/1RaRbMY
The pathing feature in Planet Coaster is arguably it's least intuative feature, and whilst it works well to get the fantastic guest AI around the park, it can be a little janky and awkward. In this tutorial we go over some of the often missed features of paths as well as some advanced technigues for improving your path experience and get results!

    Thanks for the tips. Massively enjoying Planet Coaster but sometimes feel overwhelmed by just how much flexibility it offers. They've done a fantastic job on it.

    I have over 200 hours in PC (according to Steam). Yet, I learned about a dozen pathing tips I never knew about. THANK YOU!!!! I'll be binge-watching your other tutorials to see what else I missed.

    Thank you for sharing all the very useful information. I do have one (tiny) suggestion: As you are talking and performing tasks, it would be VERY helpful if you said what you were clicking and pressing. For example, there was a part where the path did not completely cover where it should have. You made an adjustment and fixed it, but you didn't tell what you pressed to make that happen. Other than that, I remain very grateful that you took the time to share your knowledge. I have loved Rollercoaster Tycoon for years, and I thought I would just pick up in Planet Coaster with no problem. Well, it seems that I was incorrect! I do think there is a general Frontier feel, but so much is different, I decided to give up trying to compare the two. I do miss my custom controls for movement. Thanks again! Hands across the water. ;)

    Awesome videos - all four of them so far have really helped make my parks look a lot better. Is there any way you could do a guide on scenery / buildings? I feel like I don't know everything about it like you do...

    Thansk very much :) With building, I kind of just make it up as I go along, but I'll try to put my thoughts into an organised manner :)
