I'm trying to make a "dance hall" or "square dancing" sort of attraction. I thought I could make a Bumper Cars or Flying Saucers and use the Tile Inspector to turn the ride invisible, but it still creates the cars. I tried messing around with changing the ride type or vehicle type, but can't get that to work either. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm wanting to install openrct2, but I'm confused which variant to install... Does it matter or does each one do different things?

Hello,

Been playing openrct2 just fine and then out of the blue the audio just becomes super crackly and sorta laggy at the same time. Almost like slow motion. Any ideas on what this could be?

I'm guessing if the answer is yes it's going to be something obvious that I missed, but more than likely I'm expecting a very quick "no" lol

When I'm simulating a ride that I'm building, is there anyway to direct the simulated trains to start at a specific part of the coaster without having to wait for it?

I currently have a coaster that's 9 minutes long at this point, I know everything I've built works so far, but I want to be able to test trains on the stuff I'm currently building. It'd be great to point the simulation to where I'm at instead of speeding it up and waiting for it to run it's course.

If you can help or tell me that I can't be helped, I'd be appreciative! Thanks.

Hello community!

I started playing openrct2 a couple of months ago and after almost 20 years of not playing rct it really blows my mind. Thank you everybody for contributing to this awesome game!

But I have a question: I started to build a giant park (999x999) and I built a lot of entrances all over the surface (~50 entrances). My problem is: people enter the park and want to go to "splash-ride 3" very soon. Seriously, like 800 out of 2.000 guests are heading to "splash-ride 3" at the same time. BUT: they can't find splash-ride 3, because it is far far away and the path finding is quite bad so they get frustrated and unhappy (and explode because I use the bad-thoughts-go-boom plugin - thank you for creating it!).

Is there any way to prevent people from wanting to go to "splash ride 3"? I deleted the ride and then another ride came up where people wanted to go to, so it is not my ride but something related to path finding I guess. Maybe some lines of code that could be deleted to prevent guest to head to a specific ride?

Maybe someone has an idea :-)

Is there a way to extend the inversions on open rct2. For example how to have a zero g roll followed up by straight (inverted) track pieces to create long inverted sections of track? Thanks

I've tried a couple times now to play the RCT1 scenarios but I cannot get the ride and entry prices to stop changing on their own. If I set the scenario options to free entry, paid rides the ride prices change from the prices I set to another price - for instance the Wild Mouse I set to $3 and it resets to $20. If I set the scenario options to paid entry, free rides the entry fee changes from the price I set to another price - I set entry to $5 and it resets to $3.60, in one instance I had 2 rides and the price went to $36. The park entry fee changes on its own even If I have the price set in scenario options - it ignores that price and sets its own price.

I still have my original CD-ROM of RCT with Loopy Landscapes and Corkscrew Follies, but my new computer build doesn't even have a CD drive. From what I can tell, in order to play these scenarios on OpenRCT2, I at least need the RCT deluxe version from Steam? Then I can get OpenRCT2 and point it to the necessary directories to get all the RCT1 scenarios and obviously RCT2? If that's the case, the deluxe is currently 20% off on Steam and I'm wondering if it every goes more than than that?

I had successfully installed openrct2 on one machine.

I no longer have rct2 or the loopy landscape expansion for rct1 (I still have rct1, but that doesn't really help)

Is there any way to port my openrct2 to a new machine?

As of today, the AppImage version of OpenRCT2 works on Ubuntu 22.04 (and derived distros such as Linux Mint 21.x), Debian Bookworm and SteamOS again.

This change will filter down to the v0.4.16 release as well, which is currently planned for early November.

Using tile inspector I hid the 'surface' of a tile and now I can't access that tile at all. Is there a way around this?

Thanks.

Evening All,

For reasons beyond my control my old machine died a horrible death. Thus, I have to move OpenRCT2 (and all its inherent bits such as RCT1 and 2 installs) to the new machine.

How do I do that?

I have access to the old hard drive. If I need to reinstall from Steam, I have absolutely no idea what kind of receipt or account I have there to prove I actually own the games.

Thanks.

Not sure how tbh. Can I get an explanation?

Hi all, I’ve created a dome structure for an indoor ride but haven’t built the ride yet. Is there a way to stop the scenery auto deleting when the coaster exceeds it? A way to say “can’t build here there is scenery in the way” type of thing? Thank you!!!

The red warning text for urgent park stuff is super hard for me to read for some reason so I keep missing important notifications about my rides breaking down and stuff. I saw a few other people saying the same thing here the past couple years so I know I’m not alone but no one could figure out how to change the text color so I just wanted to know if there was a fix yet

Idk why but I'm having a rough time trying to install openrct 2. Just wanted to try RCT for the first time and everyone said this was the way to play... But the instructions just led to the download links which

A. Idk which version I need

And

B. Idk what steps I need to take after downloading the file.

If someone could explain in detail, that would be much appreciated.

Long story short:

I updated all my port settings and managed to launch the server with a batch file. My partner was unable to see the server until just after I reset my router entirely. I later reset my computer (having changed nothing about the server setup or anything related) and now he can't find it anymore.

I'm racking my brain and can think of absolutely no reason this would happen.

Hello so I have used Openrct2 before without issue. However I recently reformated my PC and reinstalled everything. I decided to fire up the game and went to the scenario editor and selected the object and rides I wanted and then clicked the button to edit the landscape, but when I clicked the button to edit the landscape the game basically froze up and I had to close the game. I tried again later but this time I didn't select any objects or rides except the default stuff and this time it work and was able to get to the landscape editor. I thought the issue was fixed so tried it a third time and decided to select some objects and rides again but again the game froze when I tried to go to the landscape editor.

Any ideas on what could cause this issue and how to fix it? I know the maximum limit for objects was increased but I'm not selecting anywhere near that many objects.

Thanks.

Question - I'm new to OpenRCT2. I bought the RCT Deluxe and RCT2 Triple Thrill for windows years ago, and got the disc versions. I was able to successfully download and link OpenRCT2 with RCT Deluxe and RCT2 Triple Thrill when I noticed that the stock rides/pre-built rides like "Woodchip" or "Mischief" for the Wooden Rollercoaster, that come in the original games, isn't/aren't available or all pre-built stock coasters for that matter. It's only giving me the option to do custom built rollercoasters. How do I get the list of pre-built rollercoasters to show up so I can put those down in my parks?

Scenarios and data files I have access to. I can install them or grab them from the discs themselves. Just odd that they're not there anymore. Don't know if this is a OpenRCT2 thing, done on purpose or I'm missing something.

Hello r/openrct2, I picked up the game yesterday and built myself a "sandbox" scenario and played on it for a couple of hours. I wanted to change some things up, namely I wanted to add a body of water and allow myself to charge for rides, so I tried converting the save into a scenario, make the changes and continue playing with the updated scenario.

I ran into an issue though, when opening the save in the scenario editor, all rides safe for one, the Sky Tower, disappear. Only the queues remain. They will stay gone when saving the scenario and starting a game.

Has anyone run into this issue before and knows of a fix for it? Thanks a lot for reading!

Hi guys! Been searching on this subreddit but couldn't find anyone with a similar issue. I played OpenRCT2 a couple of times on my Steam Deck in docked mode with a USB mouse and keyboard. Every time after a couple of minutes the cursor spins into the right corner and keeps scrolling in that direction. I'm not able to get the cursor back to the park. Does anyone know what could cause this and what the fix could be?

Update: was able to find the fix: I wasn't running the game in full-screen. The cursor was going out of the window that caused the scroll glitch. Changing the game to fullscreen fixed the issue.

Hi, I just started playing and I'm having an issue where saved tracks in the Documents/OpenRCT2/track folder aren't showing up in the track designs manager. Is this a bug, or is it supposed to work like this?

Hello, peeps!

I am trying to get OpenRCT2 to connect with Steam.

So I saw this original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/openrct2/comments/53vvfm/guide_how_to_make_openrct2_run_through_steam/?rdt=35069
And I saw the recent post about Steam Decks.

I've tried following all of the advice. However...I'm not super tech savvy, and I'm struggling to get the files to reconcile. I found where my games are downloaded for Steam. But it's just called 'Rollercoaster Tycoon 2', not RCT2.exe? (Can't even see where I'd find the label .exe). How do I merge into the "directory". What does "directory mean"? I tried dragging and dropping the unzipped file into the folder, but there's nothing to merge? Please explain to me like I'm 8, haha.

Thank you!
