Hayo Park Managers!

Update 3 arrives on March 20th for all Planet Coaster 2 players to enjoy and we're here to give you a sneak peek at some of the biggest features, additions and enhancements coming.

Features

Please note that existing flumes will need to turn the ‘Enhanced Guest Flume Behaviours' toggle on to see the new flume behaviours. Existing flumes in your parks may also be affected visually due to clipping with the new round bottomed flumes - adjustments to your flume placement will resolve this.

Newly placed flumes will use the new flume behaviours toggle by default.

• Enhanced flume behaviours
  • Flume bottoms are now rounded as part of Update 3 and inflatables will deform to match this shape as they slide down!
  • Your guests will also enjoy more variation in how they travel down the flume special pieces, determined by their entry speed into the piece! You will need to toggle ‘Enhanced Guest Flume Behaviours’ on to see this.
  • Flume jettisoning also makes its way into Planet Coaster 2, with tight corners and bumps at high speed ejecting guests into the air! Although it is fun to watch people and rafts go flying, this will impact your guests’ happiness.
  • In addition to the above, Update 3 also features general enhancements to physics and guests behaviours on flumes.
• Career Mode Sandbox maps
  • Pre-made maps from the Career Tutorial and Act 1 have been added to Sandbox Mode to give you a starting point and get your creative juices flowing!
• Returning theme
  • Yee-haw! Customise your park with the returning Western theme, featuring more than 350 scenery pieces. These include building props, animatronics and wall sets inspired by the untamed Wild West.

Rides

We’re bringing you more standard “de-themed” versions of coasters to put your own creative spin on:

• The Vector – Sit Down Launched New Gen
• The Outamax – Launched Hydraulic.

The plane and racing car inspired pieces from these coasters can now also be used separately as standard scenery pieces!

We're also pleased to bring back another ride from the original Planet Coaster, introducing the return of the thrilling Vector - Inverting Suspended, which will turn your guests upside down (quite literally!)

Adjustments and Enhancements

• Multi-Select tool UI enhancements
• Improvements to staff scheduling
• Tweaks to park economy
• Many bug fixes and improvements, including crash fixes
