i wonder if we will get giant drops???

anyone will know that intamin/ridetrade giant drops are great additions to any park and give a great experience to its riders.............they are the most flexible tower ride with three types of cars available, sit down, stand up and now floorless "fifth element" cars....

but how would these things work in rct2 cos each tower has a different amount of cars on it ranging from 2 to 6.

and drayton manors apocalypse giant drop tower has ALL three car styles on it, 2 of each except the fifth element.........

any ideas on how this could work on the game. i have this idea.

yall know that when ya build a space shot or gyro grop in the game you have to build a tower base to start with, why not have all the different bases in the special build menu so it would look like this

2 car tower base

3 car tower base

4 car tower base

5 car tower base

6 car tower base

gyro drop tower base

im sure yall get my drift.........

and ya select the cars ya want in the mechanics bit in the ride box. so theres 2 menus, one that selects what tower track you want (2-6) and the other menu selects what car type ya want on that part of the tower, so a recreation of apocalypse would be

track1 - sit down

track2 - sit down

track3 - stand up

track4 - stand up

track5 - floorless

and for the gyro drop there would be one menu that selects what car ya want like regular or floorless (acrophobia)

does anyone think this is too complicated or too stupid????

That's a good idea, but aren't all giant drop cars inherantly floorless anyway? (Save for the stand up ones, of course.)

these are photos of the cars im talking about

the sit down gyro drop is already in the game so i wont get a pic (i cant find one anyway)
ill let you guess which is which

intamin also do a space shot style ride called the ballistic power tower which is at SFholland.
they also do a bungee drop but i cant find good photos of it, i think the giant drop at dreamworld is a bungee drop but im not sure.
id like to see the gyro swing in there too malestrom at drayton manor.
giant drop more important though

I got these pics from coasterforce

could a mod make those pics show if possible on this forum

I-nar in a way you are right but there is no need for a floor on the sit down cars so its not floorless or floored id say

Fler-

That's a really good idea. But I think Chris Sawyer is just going to put Giant Drop cars on the 'Roto-Drop' attraction...

perhaps it would be easier to select how many tracks, what car goes on what track and car type in three menus in the mechanics box
