looking good so far, just the bit where it transitions from launch to bank would kill you irl lol, look up heart lining and gforces really changed to way i think about shaping my elements and also saves a lot of speed on the coaster surprisingly

Looking good so far Cray! 

I do see a little spot at the left bit of the hill. It's a litle bumpy / sharp there. That could probably use some fixing.

I'd shorten the tube supporting the first bit of the turn after launch - it jumps up a bit too much!

Pretty good so far, but the first turn on the real thing doesn't doesn't immediately jump up like that, it starts low and rises up like 10-15 feet before going into the first hill. There's also the large bump to the left of the hill that others have pointed out.

 Gonna bring it down a little when i get more granites/yellows  i've noticed the ride does not heartline as much so if i'm using your method i'd use granites/yellows.

that's my heartlining but you're right it does look a little, wait, I mean alot more jolty than i thought (probably down to the horrible shaping of my track strengtheners) gonna fix that before my next post

I totally agree with you, will do when i get more granites

the first turn has been completed (even the rising part) and I’m waiting on parts and i’m Out of grays, flexis, purple 3d’s and orange/black ladders. I’ve mostly been focusing on shaping the current rides Attached File  69081B14-64B7-4645-BD46-FD0C2BA98B66.jpeg   178.54KB   0 downloads
