Ummm. The train got stuck on the first lift and valleyed. Try a test ride before posting in the future.

I did, which you can clearly tell from trains ALONG the course in the screen shots, so don't be a prick.

While taking the screenshots (with it obviously running the course), I noticed that occasionally a train would get stopped at the MCBR or on the lift, so I slowed the lift to put some more space between trains without running another test.

Now it's fixed. Updated file re-uploaded in original post.[/b]

^ I don't think he's a prick. If you post a ride on here, it's gonna get judged, I mean isn't that the point? Watch your temper buddy, he just said it valleyed, and maybe try testing it...

Dude, I wasn't trying to be a prick. If you had said something like lift speed may need to be sped up that would have been helpful. The screen shots don't really tell me anything, because there are a number of modifications and tricks that work for working on your ride including speeding up the lift. Do you honestly think that if the ride valleys no one would tell you. Valleys many times means that it is not properly tested(this time this was not the case), and if you want comments then dont be so sensitive about criticism(especially those that affect the entire ride.)

^ BTW thanks paintballer

Sorry for the rant and I will ride and critique soon( I am working on something of my own)

anyway sorry for "being a prick" and I guess we agree to disagree

The Ghost

The good

smooth fun layout

pretty cool design

awesome helix thing

The not so good

This coaster looks like there will be some insane airtime, but it was somewhat scarce on a lot of parts of the ride, it was there, just not in abundance

8/10

The Ghost

The supports on the curve at the top of the lift look awkward, like they get too wide at the bottom

Hmmm, a really smooth ride, good job on that.

Personally, Im not a fan of the supports, Im sure another preload would of looked better. Your pacing was....awkward. I wasn't a fan of the fast, then slow, then fast, then slow.

Also the last turn...wtf was with that? Ha. Way to over banked and something else could of been done with it.

Over all, good job on it being smooth and an interesting ride.

I thought it was really good. I just purchased NL, and I can't make anything even close to that. I'm anxious to make a coaster good enough to post here...
