RCT3 Blocking Question

I'm trying to recreate Millennium Force in RCT3. I've pretty much got it I think, but I'm having a helluva time getting the load/unload station blocking (3 trains) to work right. The problem is the elevator lift is acting as a block, so the trains advance after the first one goes up and over. When the second train gets to the top of the elevator lift, it stops, and the pull car goes back down and actually grabs the next train. Since it can't get to the top, it rolls back down to the station. All this happens before the first train even gets to the end of the track... Once the first train clears the block, the second train releases from its magical brakes and rolls back down the lift hill, so now I have two trains "stacked" at the bottom of the lift hill... I've tried several combinations of block brakes, no luck... Anyone know how to make this work without a MCBR, which obviously MF doesn't have? Thanks in advance...

But then again, what do I know?

Well, I'm pretty sure you can't have a load/unload seperate stations. I heard in the expansion that problem will be fixed.

i'm not sure what to put here..

Even with a series of block brake runs, it still doesn't work right... I really hate running in continuous circuit mode, especially for recreations...

But then again, what do I know?

It's another RCT3 bug, you're not doing anything wrong.
How disappointing...

Oh well, in the meantime I just recreated SFDL's SRoS, which was easy seeing as how it's a pretty straightforward layout and it uses the chain lift instead of the elevator...

Anyone think we'll ever get a way to really create a B&M Immelman or Dive Loop? The only way I've figured out looks kinda screwy...


But then again, what do I know?

Have you tried using a chain lift at the top of one of the airtime hills on MF? It means you cant use the smooth(er) transitions, but it adds a block to it.

I also created a way to have a loading/unloading station that half works. The second station acts like a exit/exit pass entry and all enclosed in a building it semi works. Unfortunately the peeps get a little confused. Check out my Indian Sabotage to see my first try at it. I haven't had time to improve upon it yet.
