The grab an up/down piece and place it on top so it connects with our track.

Just like before we want to go with a column that’s one story higher than we are at right now (so in this case 3 story) and place it 6 squares away. We can grab a stacked straight column and place a straight piece on top of it so it looks like this: This makes it super easy to both lay out where you’re turn will be and give you support of placing your curve. (NOTE: you can also use individual columns if you don’t like the stacked look.) Let’s grab a two story curved stacked column and place it right next to this. Then we add an up/down piece on top of it. Right away I want to do a level transition, so let’s place a two story single column about 6 spaces away. (NOTE: Some pieces, like straight pieces, up/down pieces and curves can be placed in either direction and they work just fine.) This is a really easy way to see which direction your coaster will be going but you’ll also notice that some of the pieces have arrows on the end of them if they only go in one direction. I put single story “stacked” columns under each side just to make it look better. As long as the ride isn’t in use, Sims can walk behind the cart on this piece only. You’ll want to make sure it has enough space on both sides so that the Sims can load and unload. (Although you could easily just have it start on the ground.) I started out with a simple box midway up the side of the lot for my loading and unloading pad. (NOTE: All track pieces are divisible by 6.) One of the biggest challenges to making a roller coaster is space, so after a few tries you may find yourself counting out the squares the way I do. You’ll notice that this is very similar to the big roller coaster in the venue if you remove all of the buildings and other venue stuff. This example uses all of the new track pieces and most of the columns and other goodness that come with the set.įirst, let’s take a look at what we hope to build.
