I’ve also built a body slide that starts with a 100m drop right after the station. The EI&N rating for this slide is 6.4,6.2, & 3.4. It offers 11 seconds of air time with a positive vertical G of 10.9 and a negative vertical G of 2.7.

After passing below Mine Train at some 150km/h guests on Body Slide enter a rise of about 50m, ascend through a few complete helixes, travel over White Water Rapids and Monorail, take a couple of turns, and by the time they arrive at the flume end their slide experience has switched from intense to relaxing and they’re moving at a sedate 30km/h before dropping gently into the wave pool.

The entrance deck to Body Slide inadvertently offers the best open-air view in our park so some of our guests spend a few moments admiring the scenery before riding this slide.

Guests leaving the pool complex will usually enjoy some of the other rides in this area. These rides, at the extreme west of the park, include standard favorites such as Pipeline Coaster, Gravitron, and Rotor. Pipeline Coaster originated in Track Browser and has been hugely augmented below the level of its queue to make it more suitable for the area in which it has been placed.

The extreme western end of the west access path is the path taken by guests to get to the north access path, towards the animal viewing galleries and to the north food court.

Once on the north path guests will find animal enclosure viewing galleries on the north side of the path, with toilets, information stations, the north food court, and access to the north Monorail station at the south side of the path. At the bottom of the image is the gazelles enclosure, followed by zebras, mandrills, and rhinos, with giraffes being out of sight off the top center of the image.

I haven’t built a mess of tracks ‘n’ rides like this since RCT1. This image goes a long way towards demonstrating the fun I had in building this park, and brought back some of the charm I felt when playing the older titles in the RollerCoaster Tycoon franchise.

At the upper left of this image can be seen the Stratosphere train at the highest point on its track. The idea behind building this coaster was to get the guests launched into the air quickly, after which there’d be a sedate ride down and back to the station. I’ve included many special elements in this track design; it’s been built to integrate with the surrounding rides and has been shaped to hug the edges of the artificial pond.

At this vantage point above the mandrill enclosure, along the north access path can be seen the entire north food court and the artificial pond in which I’ve built Bumper Boats. In the Campaign scenario Insect World I had built Station Jim Jr’s CTR Captain’s The Seaward in this pond but it’s been replaced in this park with Bumper Boats specifically because I was experimenting with my park finance skills and wanted there to be nothing custom in this park.

At the east end of the pond the north access path gives way to the east access path which continues south past the woodie and then on towards the park entrances.

Rhino enclosure is at the eastern end of the north access path.
