A Himalaya custom flat is perfect for this. Nice work!
I've now finished implementing this cheat and submitted a pull request for it. I've left the limit at 64 cars, because of the issues with the dropdown if I push it any higher.
Amazing
If you can do it i say leave the option in - If people dont want to use 255 long trains they dont have to but if people want to they have the option to.
Allow the user to have options with your product
In theory I could convert the code to use dynamic arrays and eliminate the limit entirely - but that's a project for another time.
You mean like this?
I have discovered that the arrays that limit the train length are actually unnecessary, so I've removed them entirely. This puts the limit back to 255, at which point the counter overflows. You still can't create a 255 car train through the dropdown though - it won't handle that many elements - but you should be able to safely load a park that contains a 255 car train.
You might actually be able to get more than that - the train is represented as a linked list internally and might still function if the car count is wrong.
This can be very very interesting for a fantasy concept that I have thought about.
This will help to reduce the queue time.
Too bad there's no way for a dynamic load/unload where peeps hop in/out automatically when the train passes through the station instead of the entire 100 something car train stopping every second to load/unload. THEN it could mean perfectly realistic omnimover rides.
At that point you might as well hardcode support for the ride type, since I can't think of any other use for a feature like that.
Rapids rides?
Possibly. It sounds very difficult to implement though.
Sounds awesome!!
It sounds like the sort of thing that probably can't be implemented without major changes. I wouldn't even know where to start trying to do it.
I have replaced the dropdown menu with a spinner, so you can now set up to 255 cars per train. I don't think it's possible to get any longer without changing the save format.
