He said he was really excited about building this new coaster, obviously he wasn't as motivated to build Terminator, and I don't blame him. It's that simple he doesn't want to build Terminator right now.

Well duh, I see he is not building it right now. I asked a question to know the reason why he didn't.


This is a prime example getting mad at someone over stupid stuff.



EDIT: v, Yeah, I read. I asked a simple question and then people tried to act "smart" to me.


EDIT2: Whoever gave me the rep point saying "get over it", I'm not just going to "get over it" (although I was never "on" it) and let someone do talking for me and make me look like a retard that can't read. That is a bad habit to form. I will say what I want to say, when I want to say it. I'm sure if anyone else asked the same question nothing would have happened. I asked a simple question that didn't mean to cause such a stir. But obviously some people are always to tight or want to cause something. All steel had to do was answer the question and I wouldn't be in this. Now instead of always trying to comeback and what I say just leave it be and let steel answer the question.

Yet you clearly could have recognized the reason for yourself if you read.

Well, no one else is dumb enough to ask.

This is a prime example getting mad at someone over stupid stuff.

We're not mad. CC10 made 2 funny remarks, I said it doesn't matter, and boater just showed common sense. There is no 'YOUZ IS A BITCH' or anything like that. Just get over it, leave it alone. If you bring it up again that just proves that YOU are mad over it, because you refuse to let it go. And if your response to this is 'neither can you', too bad, because this is my firse serious response.

Alright that's enough...

Anywho, back on topic:
The coaster (or the supports rather) looks nice! I like the turn and the hinge. I assume there will be another hinge at the top too?

^ Thanks.
Everyone else: :lurk

Well I guess I am just going to use MOTY as another excuse to change my plans. This time I'm going for a custom blitzcoaster with tube supports. It should have a mid-course launch under the station and lift just like Maverick.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Sorry for not rotating the images...







I'm really trying to make some Intamin supports. Also, you can see that there is occasionally a rod connected under the lift track. This is to hold the chain.

Please comment!

[SwimZONE]

I think you need to have the supports angle outwards more. Those are extremely close to Maverick supports.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Thanks, and you're right. I need to make the horizontal part connecting to the track shorter, but the angle of the supports seems pretty close. I'd like some more people's opinions before moving on though.

[Millcreek47]

On the chain holder, i think it might bunch up, to where your chain will jerk. nice idea though.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ My motor will be near the bottom of the lift, so that shouldn't be a problem.

Oh and BTW, I changed the name again.

[Millcreek47]

ok...looks good...any layout plans?

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Well I want it to end up being about 3.5 feet tall. I would like to have some turns right after the drop like Maverick, but not too many because I want to preserve speed. I also want it to have a mid-course launch with some cool elements after it, and at least one stengel dive and airtime hill.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Well here it is:






I really tried not to make the drop's angle too far above 90*, but I don't know if I should angle it farther. I also don't know whether I need to make the extra lateral supports on the drop like maverick, or whether it's fine. Please comment!

[coastermaniac]

It could have a little more angle but it's fine.

[Antinos]

I would put more angle on that drop. It barely goes beyond 90 degrees.

[KCB Designs]

I can't put my finger on it, but there is something that I don't like about that crest.

[Top_Thrill_Dragster33]

All you need to do is push the section of the crest that is between the horizontal point and the vertical point. As seen here.

And yes, It defiantly needs to be steeper. That will also make it look a bit better.

Looks like this is going to be another good coaster from you. Good Luck.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ Thanks, that was really helpful.



How does this look?
