Track Rides share a lot of similarities with rollercoasters, but with less extremes in movement. Track Rides will go at a constant speed around the track, but you can change that speed in the Operations menu.
Track Rides are also built similarly to coasters but are more restricted in their track angles and in the pieces available. Because of this, Track Rides tend to be much gentle experiences than coasters.
To function, a Track Ride must have a supply of power from a nearby Distributor, be connected to a path and have an assigned Ride Attendant.
Track Rides come in many shapes and sizes, including rides incorporating water. While a rollercoaster can be the height of thrill, a Track Ride is more about creating a gentle, themed experience for your guests to enjoy.
How-To Build a Dark Ride
Dark Rides are a staple attraction in many of the world’s most love theme parks.
- Create a Custom Track Ride or a small custom rollercoaster.
- Fully enclose the ride in a building with walls, floor and a roof – remember to leave space for an entrance/exit.
- Ensure the Global Illumination setting in your Graphics settings is at High, Ultra or Maximum.
- The building will block out external light and you now have a dark ride!
