  • RollerCoaster Tycoon is an amazing game, but it's not without its quirks. In this video we look at 10 times where the logic doesn't quite hold up to real life.

      Weird logic: brakes and block brakes do not give G forces in the game. In real life I can handle about any coaster unless they have a way too intense block brake at the end. That will make me the most nauseous. In the game it seems that a train can stop from 100 to 0 in a blink of an eye and it doesn't add anything to the nausea rate.

    Time moves a lot faster in RCT so that 5 seconds before drowning might actually be a few hours for the guests.
    You should actually do a calculation based on how long a year lasts in the game, then figure out how long the guests are actually struggling for before they drown.

      This has also got me thinking about how slow some of the rides would be as well. And how slowly the guests fall from heights when dropped... Their terminal velocity seems to be the same as their walking pace. But I wonder how slow that actually is once you calculate how much faster their time is!

    Here's one for you:
    *Guests get so pissed off at the sight of litter and vomit that they become Vandals and start kicking over trash cans and breaking benches... resulting in fewer places for guests to dispose of their garbage and rest to ease their nausea, further exacerbating the problem that angered them in the first place*

      @Bryce Pruitt I place bathrooms and first aid stations near the exits of high-nausea risk rides... I place tons of benches and trash cans as Marcel always recommends... I have enough handymen in my park to populate a small country... I do everything right, and these guests still coat the path with their puke. And even though I've got plenty of handymen, I keep seeing paths covered in vomit. By the time they get to the vomit sea, it's already too late; that fool who decided to deliberately lose his lunch on my path stepped in too many puddles of his own mouth crap and is now going Full Doom Slayer on the benches and trash cans that could've helped him.
      *Ingrates...* They're not just clowns; they're the entire damned circus. I should place a Circus in my park if it's available in the rides list; they can go live there.

      Skyhooks are a serious concept for space launch assists. Essentially you have a long, spinning cable in orbit, that rotates to the direction of movement, so that the end closer to the planet reaches a low speed (or no speed) relative to the ground. Then you can hook something onto it and it is pulled into space. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyhook_(structure)

      The best part is that's still a thing in newer sims. Planet Coaster does make you care for your staff, but staff still never go home and some will only ask to be paid $80. Per month. If they're working 24 hour days, that's an hourly wage of 11¢. Even if their job was realistically an average 8-hour workday, that's still a wage of 33¢.
      It gets funnier when you think about the money the way I do, which is its printed value times 1000. But even then, $80k is more than most Americans make in a year.

      And money gereral is down, since park attendance is way down to irl.
      So a Coaster for just 20 grand?
      That is as expensive as like 1 train (likely not enouth).
      Coasters cost millions and the scenery is kind of as expensive.
      Also in parks like the Europa-Park (witch bigger, than the biggest plot in Planet Coaster), has an average attendance of over 12 k people a day, and has 5 million guests/a. So on good days, they are in the multiple of 10 thousands.

      Use cheap transport rides to transfer guests to the main park, otherwise they just hang out near the beginning because there are no paths for them to get to the main park? Use "No Entrance" signs to steadily guide guests back to the entrance, but also past rides that lead them to the rest of the park. They don't want to pay for a ride, then they get steadily sorted to the main entrance

    The prices of rides aren't that illogical if you consider the extreme time dilation. Guests move immensely slow compared to the passage of time represented in the game, so the number of transactions guests make in the game's month is much less than in a real life month. If the rides were realistically priced, you might have to charge thousands for a hotdog or something. It would be interesting to see a video about this.

    People in Roller Coaster Tycoon can break benches & bend lamps with a single hit, phase through other people, survive 10 g's unaffected, or even 50 g's with mild nausea, can somehow influence park ratings while trapped (Telepathy? Hive mind?).... But they can't swim, & any ride crash from a roller coaster to a dinghy can kill them.

    Here's some weird stuff...
    1. Slides can break down even though there isn't any control mechanism to it - it's just a slide.
    2. Guests can hold many, many things at once but only have two hands. (Balloon, umbrella, park map, cuddly toy, on-ride photo, food/drink, coupons) Perhaps they brought a bag or have big pockets.
    3. Guests are somehow capable of seeing a ride they think is "too intense/too expensive" from an above-ground queue line even if the ride is underground.
    4. Staff have incredibly cheap wages compared to real life. Imagine getting paid just $40/month cleaning up endless lines of puke outside of a Gravitron. (It's a video game thing though, so it's understandable)
    5. Guests don't get tired at all despite being at your park for 20+ hours. Like, do you sleep at all?
    6. (Another video game quirk) Other guests don't do anything when they see vandals commit a crime. They don't stop them or anything - just leave it to the park staff to take care of it.

    Planet Coaster shows us that guests are incredibly bouncy as well, so if we assume that these are the same universes, perhaps the guests are actually more similar to a balloon. Organs floating around in some sort of gas with their "skin" being a hard exoskeleton similar to insects.

    One weird thing is also how cheap it is to move land - similar to cheap coasters, but it makes you wonder why real places don't just build artificial terrain for their terrain coasters.
    The *weirder* thing is the story of how Marineland in Canada did exactly that when building Dragon Mountain - they built a 50+ meter tall mountain and proceeded to build a coaster all around it (originally planning to include a replica of Niagara Falls, too). It's one of the most unbelievable stories of coaster budgeting I've heard.
