I made a room to test out the new pieces:



EDIT: I guess this room was more popular than I anticipated...I quit working on this around noon PDT, and it was still at three mickeys up until closing time (ten hours later). I do enjoy it, but I'll probably redo it with a little more planning at some point.

Nicely done, Genie. How does the teleporter mid-stream work?

Can the teleporters be used like the regular ones to go from room to room? Or are they for the ride pieces only?

Here you can see VMK_Zev and VMK_Runo checking out my test room.

You can also see the river-go-round which I added as a test. This will also be very useful. When things calm down, I will post more about how we can use this great new system.

Well, after setting up my test ride room, I spent most of the rest of my VMK time completing the new hidden mickey quest and getting some of the new furniture. However, I did have a little time to test out another ride idea just before closing...

Presenting: The Tunnel!



Not sure if I invented this or not, but feel free to use it in your own designs. Basically, you just make the track loop back into itself and then connect both sides with a linking teleporter so it functions like a tunnel. You could make a wider or taller tunnel, of course...I just wanted to show it can be done!

Thanks to Elara, CL_Enderz, and ceburto for some encouragement.

nice ride/experiment genie! btw, did you notice that the whole (and the flooring) are exactaly the same as the pirate prison room?

EDIT: can they be connected to other rooms, somewhat like a teleporter? or is this not possible because you dont get two matching sets?

They can be connected exactly like teleporters. Note that when you buy one, you actually get a linking pair. I should update my post with the screenshot to say that. I don't know if anyone has tested this out between friends' rooms, but I have seen several rooms linked together and I don't know why it wouldn't work just like normal teleporters.

As for the flooring, I thought the Splash Mountain Bayou guest room floor looked the same as the pirate prison, but the Steamboat guest room floor is much smoother.

Anyone here ever play Rollercoaster Tycoon? I do, and I can't wait to get started on this! This is almost exactly like the log rides you can build in that game, but it's better, as it's VMK. Of course.

Edit: I see that Smoop has already noticed this.

Looks sharp! Good job!

(And the HOST_s will be trying to show off this weekend? Think they'll be able to beat all our discoveries?)
