5dave had some questions and pmd me with a picture to illustrate what he was asking. I asked him if I could share the picture with everyone here because I think it illustrates how you could lay out the park and what would be required in each cell.

Notice that in the first cell, you only have the exit of the coaster going into the next cell. One of the questions he asked me was if the 'other' rides that are in the first cell can exit into the next cell...NO, any other rides in the first cell must drop the peeps into that first cell.

The other question was about peep paths in the park for those whining peeps that are halfway through the map and wanting to go home. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE THESE PATHS...but if you decide you need them, you must make sure the path leads peeps directly to the entrance cell ONLY. At the beginning of that path (in the entrance cell area) you must then make sure you have a do not enter banner across the path, because you do not want the peeps to walk in the park and go down that path to some other cell.

The whole idea of this contest is that peeps ride the coaster in the first cell, go to the next cell, ride that coaster, go to the next cell, etc, until the peep makes its way through the whole park back to the etnrance. The tricky parts are that the peeps may ride that 'other' ride located in any cell after the first and get dumped back into the previous cell, and if you decide to have that whine path somewhere along the way, get dumped back into the first cell again. Because if you have that whine path, some peeps who aren't even whining, may go down that path anyway.

Decisions...decisons B)

I also suggest you all read that first post many times and make sure you are really clear on the rules of the contest.

Ah, what the hell, I'll give it a go. I've already got an idea set for the park, involving the silk trade routes of the 1600's - 1800's. Now the hardest task facing me is building a realistic merchant clipper...

call me crazy but i'm making my super cell entry based on the actual layout of the Disneyland resort in Anehiem CA. so far i've completed the mainstreet USA mixed with tomorrowland area. and the rollercoaster for that area is the exact copy of Rockin Space Mountain V2 with the actual soundtrack. it awsome!

Sort of, yes, but remember, the 4th cell will be a mystery, and I've decided give you 1 hint:
It's not in both americas.

I did! XD

And I'll have to send mine in before the 19th, because I'm leaving for Saskatchewan.

^Well, good for you. SOME of us are taking our TIME.

The first and second cells are nearly done for me, and I had to sort out a few problems with the second coaster's stats but...now they're GREAT! :D
I still have to plan out the 3rd cell, and have no idea what I'll do for the 4th...

And of course, I'm still planning where to hide my easter eggs....hehe...in this cell park, I'll make it really hard....

Hacking will only be allowed on buildings and paths. The coasters, for obvious reasons, must not be built using hacks.

You can have as many areas (cells) in the park as you want (with a minimum of four), but each area (cell) must contain a coaster with a higher excitement rating than the last area (cell).

The basic rules of the contest must be followed. There were two other parks entered last year that were disqualified, simply because the basic rules were not followed. One park did not have their pathing correct, so peeps were able to get to their second cell without riding the first coaster, and the other park had two coasters in one cell. Although the coaster wasn't working, the rules clearly state ONE COASTER per cell. So, just be careful with the rules. Ask Questions! I'll check in every day to answer them!


Some questions came up and I just wanted to emphasize some points in the rules ;)

Keep asking the questions and happy building!
