5 Cool Things To Do In Planet Coaster Update 1.4

[@violateraindrop]

It's awesome to hear how excited you are about staff members standing still :D

[@mrmacc1312]

These guys just continue to blow me away with their designs and ideas I cannot see how anyone will be able to top this game!

[@dlfendel2844]

Y'know, that spawn-point-as-hotel tip might allow one to do TWO different-themed parks in ONE "park" such as MK/EPCOT kind of thing, too.

[@Lomaxient]

The contention with glass pieces is they don't want to give us a full glass wall building kit. While the odd bit of glass here and there is o.k. if they gave us a full, snapped to grid, glass toolkit it would encourage players to build huge glass buildings. The fear is players with poorer graphics processors would quickly blow up their computers trying to build skyscrapers & such. The problem is light refraction & light reflection. These properties are very intensive to render. I have two arguments. Firstly, I don't think people really care for these properties & would happily settle for a basic translucent material, even if it doesn't look hyper-realistic. Secondly, I bet there's a way they could turn off these properties when the camera zooms out. Just as certain textures don't render beyond a certain distance, I can see no reason why reflection & refraction FX should either. ... Also, they might just be lying so they can sell it to us in the "Soaked" bundle, which is definitely going to get made because the world would stop turning if it doesn't.

[@Coasterteam]

I really hope to see some larger DLC in the future. Think back to RCT3: Soaked and Wild. I would love to see something like that in the near future.

[@Lomaxient]

@Coasterteam456 I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't already developing both expansions & keeping it hush, hush. I imagine that their Jurassic World game is essentially a prototype for the "Wild" expansion in many ways. They're clearly concentrating on developing animal AI & releasing what they can. Check out their other developments like Kinectimals & Zoo Tycoon. I believe their development of Jurassic World is just good business sense. They can sell it on brand recognition, even if they're not committed (long term) to that game. I could call it a "cash grab", but I totally get it. They have to keep themselves afloat financially and it wouldn't make sense to pack these experimental features into an expansion for Planet Coaster. Doing that would instantly limit their market reach. Planet Coaster & Elite Dangerous are their primary cash cows. Look at the peripheral projects of Frontier & you'll get a clear sense of where we're going in the future (I believe). It may be that Planet Coaster itself is a prototype for Planet Coaster 2. Never-the-less, I'm quite certain that all roads of Frontier developments lead to an all inclusive & exhaustive theme park simulator. We will get what we want some day, just as long as they're making money on the journey.

[@nathankennedy8704]

Yes, or simply turn off reflection/refraction properties on lower graphic settings.

[@Lomaxient]

@Nathan Kennedy Good call! The simplest solutions are the hallmark of good design!

[@coastersplus]

I've made some pretty huge windows out of the KITT car skyroofs. A proper building set would just mean fewer pieces for the game to keep track of, which shouldn't hurt performance.

[@savannalawrence5700]

I wish the guest would sit at the tables longer they eat their food in like 5 seconds and then they leave

[@HarryPorpise]

@Patrick Zev wtf

[@shaneegan7354]

Thanks for the idea about the picnic canopy. I've tried a few experiments and this will work really well for my 'underwater' ride. They also work really well around a walking path with tropical reef fish video screens all around. I wish this game had a 'spawn copy' button where you could preset the displacement in each dimension. Would be pretty easy to program and would make linear structures comprised of repeating elements so much quicker and more precise.

[@AugustTha2nd]

the only thing about staff stand still is you have to turn off energy or else they will just stand at the front of the break room after taking their break unless there is a way to make them go back to the spot I originally placed them instead of manually moving them back

[@joeg7443]

Apparently I used barriers on my paths. Big road path in town, just used this as a stripe decoration without reading the description. Explained why most of my guests walk the way they do. Didn’t think of it till seeing this vid. Thanks!

[@itsgoubie]

The flexibility in this game is impressive. Even if something is not meant to be, you can still make it

[@krudmonger]

I love the idea of creating a hotel, that makes way more sense than people pouring out of a dark abyss.

[@marcof2523]

So good to see Geektopolis

[@UrLocalMaja]

Coaster King Is So Happy In The Fair In Planet Coaster

[@jordandrakeford4295]

I love the spawn thing i found one on the workshop ages ago, and I do the same but always leave the guests to walk to the main turn styles with the entrance gate :)

[@themattylee]

Thanks for the shoutout, Jonti.

[@nevercallmebyname]

they should totally add fair games to the game. They just look like stores but the people go up to them and throw a ball or shoot a squirt gun at a clown or throw a ring. That would be great. Also standing stations such as guard posts for staff to just stand at for a set amount of time and then go stand somewhere else.

[@Thomas-N-n4m]

Can’t wait to try it out

[@Strype13]

I don't understand these patch numbers. I just purchased the game, and I'm using game version 1.13. So I'm a bit confused as to how people were playing 1.4 way back in 2017? Were these updates to the beta version, and now we're in the official release? Or, what gives?

[@MicroeditonEAScreator]

What are some things I can do on planet coaster when I’m bored give me IDEAS

[@ENTERPLAYSTUDIO]

Jonti!!! You answered my Discord question from 2 nights ago in so much detail!! Thanks so much!!! 3:55 But I think you forgot to add the link in the description...could you be so kind as to update that? Thanks a ton!

[@strvideos358]

The hotel is genius 😍

[@Geekism]

Can’t wait to see what people do with the idea!

[@harag9]

Great video - I just started watching your Pinewood series, and was shocked at how well it looks at the beginning of this video... cant wait to watch the rest - only on episode 5.

[@Geekism]

Catch up! We will resume with Pinewood in January :)

[@harag9]

:) great, I'm off work for the next week!

[@JoriDiculous]

They really messed up with the Kerbs. They do not stop visitor walking over them, only "encourages" them. And i cant belive the new picnic benches doesn't stop guest from walking straight through them :/ Flower pots still the "best" blocker.

[@Geekism]

+Jori Diculous barriers stop people completely, kerbs just encourage them. Try sinking a barrier!

[@JoriDiculous]

That's not a bad idea! :D

[@ryangriffin18]

That's all really useful 🙂

[@customsbyaritario]

Thx for this tips!!!

[@jamespaterson7556]

Will the stand still trick work with scenery or buildings?

[@pens6564]

I'm playing planet coaster in 2021, can I build a real hotel in some of the game mods or it is just about scenários??

[@k.s.ktheboogeyman2788]

I wish they would add some arcade cabnits u kan leave high scores on n stuff kuz i no the theme park i grew up near had a arcade near the center of the park

[@conradmilne8766]

You should really add another staff member to the hook a duck because since the building is octagonal people can come from all sides

[@jesternario]

Well, most games in a round/hexagonal gazebo like that only have one person manning it. They just go to the side that has customers.

[@l2m773]

Lil question didnt u can set other trains at onther track in the new update?

[@davidarmstrong4743]

Great stuff! More and more to learn. My free time may simply disappear. ;)

[@silika66]

If you place a kerb a the beginning of the path leading to the exit of a ride, preventing guests to enter this path, does it mean they can't cross it to leave the ride? In other words, does it apply in both directions?

[@jordandrakeford4295]

Yet another fantastic Video for you Jonti :)

[@coopersanders2440]

Great tips! 😀 Great Vid as per usual!

[@stevencremers]

Few nice tricks man!

[@Tryclon]

Great Video thank you dir the nice Tips :)

[@joshhuffines5978]

Great informative video, some good tips. Thanks for sharing.

[@ZombieSymmetry]

The barriers are a complete block? In the livestream, they said that barriers and kerbs behaved identically but just looked different.

[@TheRealSweedie]

They wrote in the release notes that the barriers are a complete block and the kerbs are more of an encouragement. It's definitely the truth if you've looked at different videos coming out of the 1.4 update.

[@soarlozer2808]

With staff rom and energy do I need to now keep extra staff on hand to rotate breaks?

[@Lv1Magikarp]

Having to trick the game to make a staff path. Planet Coaster everyone.

[@krudmonger]

So, do the staffing changes affect the ride queues as well?

[@IIP4U1II]

Anyone thought that the new sci fi canopy can be used as like the roof to an underwater tunnel? Sealife kinda thing :)

[@BuildingMan98]

So are you still going to build a staff room in Pinewood Hills?

[@rayizard5687]

The problem with using Cascade as a boat ride is you'll need a LONG station because the only way to do block brakes is to lift the boat out of the flume

[@Geekism]

+Ray Izard Ah! Fair point :S

[@rayizard5687]

Geekism but I just discovered that boats can stack outside of the station even without block brakes...like the water rides

[@jackandrews4715]

Hi does anybody know if a i7700 - GTX 1060 can run planet coaster from your knowledge? If so how easy could it play the game with the amount of guest and scenery items...?

[@Uniqetz]

You will be perfectly fine. It will be able to run a large park with lots of scenery.

[@evoandy]

Omg my planco is still 1.12.5.505 how do you force it to update to 1.4? My steam is set to automatically update but it won’t

[@Darkz0]

#NOTIFICATIONSQUAD where You at?!

[@SentinalX]

HERE!!!!

[@doekleboot5621]

Great video!

[@crashcoaster3852]

Doekle Boot You've only watched a minute of it... ;)

[@dallasfinest5709]

Omg I love this game so much !

[@thepootinpie4388]

You should play vr tiny town

[@DaXin3]

Amazing tips..!!! ;D

[@iamaloser666]

I want to override Steel Vengeance trains but I can’t

[@DennisVlaanderen]

That's because it's licensed. Just use the other CGI-like hybrid coaster and you can ;)

[@JenniferCally]

i miss that park!

[@jamesybabey2358]

,can I do all this on console do you know please

[@gigispeed1331]

Why do you have to give the Stand Still Roster max salary?

[@anshumansingh967]

So i recently bought planet coaster off of steam...... can anyone plz tell me how can i get the golden king coaster mascot.....cz i really want tht in my park.....is that discontinued now?????

[@Geekism]

Afraid so, that came as a preorder bonus

[@cursedwither7888]

10:30 is it just me or does that look a bit like auswitz

[@zazzpzazz]

Minion

[@elliotsimpson9598]

The first one doesn’t work for me

[@joegaming8101]

RIP to the people who pirated the game and are stuck with 1.2 lol definitely no my what are you talking about heh yeah i totally 45 dollar's yeah

[@alysaorozco2515]

Early for once!😄

[@101dirtdog]

audio isnt in sync

[@tyweaver145]

Yeah the audio is like 2 seconds ahead of the video

[@101dirtdog]

didnt you just say it was fine then delete the comment?

[@tyweaver145]

I thought you were taking about Planet Coaster not being in sync. So I said, “it’s fine for me” but then I realized you were talking about the video. Sorry for the confusion

[@issataylorsavage3406]

Do you use mods

[@Geekism]

This game doesn’t have mod support right now

[@larsvegas23000]

The coaster at 11.50 is not at the Efteling I am from the Netherlands and it isn't their

[@thomasmontgomery3367]

😎👉👉

[@crashcoaster3852]

First! ;D
