Helix

How can I make a good helix? Whenever I try to make one, it's rough at the vertex points. A good helix would be like the one in Kumba that came with the game. How can I make something like that?

Use only two vertices for each level of the helix. Make your first two to form a circle from overhead, then go to a side view and make one vertex higher than the other. Lather, rinse, repeat for each time around. From the side the track will appear as a zig-zag.

Or you could hold down your shift key, select all the track pieces contained in the Kumba blueprint, go to file and select save track element and then whenever your building a coaster you can go up to file insert track element and select the Kumba Helix.

There isn't a problem that can't be solved.

Suicide is NOT a solution!

I think, that the best way is to first make 1/4 of the helix , then save it as an element and then insert it 3 times so you have a full helix, that's smooth.
