Ask the Experts / Launch and Lifthill

  • Flap%s's Photo
    Hey NE Community,
    I was wondering if there is a way to make a launch and normal lifthill,
    when using the Chainlift.

    If someone has a solution for doing this.
    I want to make a Clone from Flug von novgorod, but i realised that this may isn't possible.

    Friendly Greetings,

    Flap.

    Powered launch mode ?
  • Flap%s's Photo
    Chorkiel, thats not what i meant,

    Not directly launched from the Station

    Use 8cas and change the lift chain speed :D

    Use 8cas and change the lift chain speed :D


    But the problem is i want a different speed from the launched lift to my vertical or chainlift,
    Like the Maverick or Launched Euro Fighters.

    Maybe merge launched lift hill onto your track, then lower that speed so it will work as a normal chain lift ?

    OR
    and I'm not sure if this works, merge another coaster in and give that one another lift chain speed.

    I was wondering if thats going to work Chorkiel...
    Thats why i came to Ask the Expert.

    Sadly that doesn't work, the chain for the whole merged ride will be what ever the main ride (the ride that has the station)'s chain speed is set too. So sadly I'm not sure that this is possible.

    Shoestring the train, and have one car underground on a horizontal piece of track with only chain for the effect booster, and have it later in the track on chain-brake-chain-brake-chain-brake-chain-brake for the lift effect. The set-brake speed is your speed the train travels up the lift.

    There's always the boosters that the Twister (BM sit down cars) coaster track has.
  • Flap%s's Photo
    Yes, but i want a flat launch and a vertical slow lift,
    So if we can find a way to make this possible...
    And @Maverix i know that but i wanted to make a Combination of launch and relaxed lift.
    @ Cena, That option i had think bout it, but it's not the effect it seems to bee.

    @djbrcace1234 How do you want to make a Flat launch with Booster Wheels?
  • RRP%s's Photo
    Use the booster wheels and space them 2-3 tiles apart for the lift hill youll get a continuous steady speed from them then.Cover that with a fake chainlift.
    Use the chainlift for the flat launch and adjust lift hill speed.

    Or use a shoestring like cena said,then you can control the ride speed for any part of the ride.

    Then you haven't hacked it properly or you screwed up somewhere else, because I am certain it will work.

    check out kilgarrah by me. i did a maverick style lift and launch. should work.

    Yes i know that, but how do you get a constanbt speed on a vertical lifthill

    MAKE IT SHOESTRINGED. ALREADY SAID 3 TIMES NOW.
  • Flap%s's Photo
    Cena that doesn't get the effect i want, then it's launch, easy, launch easy...
    Quite shocking... not constant
  • RRP%s's Photo
    Lift,brake,lift,brake,lift,brake for the vertical lift
    life,lift,lift for the launch

    Both on the shoestring track. If the train is to short theres no other way to do it

    Well, make the train longer then, then shoestring it. My god, this is possible what you want. Stop arguing about it and just hack it.
