One problem was that I couldn't build the coasters I wanted, which meant no one would want to ride them. Every coaster comes with pre-made loops, turns, which I can mix in, resize and reposition. This allowed me to make almost any shape I wanted. I was able to control the bank, slope, and turn of the track. Each type has its own behavior and restrictions. There are 28 types of coasters to choose from, including wooden, chain-lifted steel, and hydraulically launched. Planet Coaster's spirit is best displayed in the coaster editor. The Steam workshop interface makes it easy to browse through the vast array of options. There are so many options available from just remixing stock items. Although fine control such as custom angles-snapping or widths for paths can seem daunting at first, it allowed me to customize every square foot of my park exactly how I wanted it to look. I used keyboard shortcuts to place and reposition, move, resize, color, and edit gift shops and ice cream stands as well as coasters, carousels and walkways. It is easier and more intuitive to build and manage a park than its incredible versatility suggests. However, many of its weaknesses will be overcome by the clever inclusion of mod support. The huge variety of attractions and rides are complemented by a ridiculous amount of terrain, structures, and customization options that make Planet Coaster so popular it begs the question: What took so long? Although it is far from being an engaging economic simulator, it does not have the ability to build certain types of buildings.

Planet Coaster has everything I need in a modern revival of the theme park sim format.
