Ask the Experts / 8-cars per train

I used the 8 cars per train function to put 3 cars on my mini coaster. I sucessfully did that, but now, my roto drop and go-kart track has trains of 8 cars. Does anyone know how to return this to normal, as my roto drop and go-kart track will not work anymore. Please help.

You may have inadvertingly modified those rides to 8-cars. I'd pull up those rides in the ride editor to see how many cars the trainer says they have. Correct as need be. If the trainer reports the correct # of cars, then I don't know how to fix it.

Ok, I did that, it said they had 8 cars per train, but when I lowered it, it didnt work when I went back into the game .

Did you click 'apply'?

Tried both.

did you make sure the ride has been closed twice or re-built so the changes can take effect?

Tried it too .

can't you just close the ride and adjust the number of cars in the game it self ?

No, it won't do that. It gives me error trappers. I fixed it though. I just had to use one of my previous back up files.

In future, don't use the 8cars feature, just change the cars in the Edit Ride menu.

On a side note, is it possible to give a B&M stand up coaster 8 cars?

Metro, if he wants to do the 3cars on a train for a minicoaster he hasn't much choice. It won't work without.
