Each ride, flume and pool which you build will have its own Prestige rating essentially, how appealing it is to guests. Everything from scenery to the rides Excitement, Fear and Nausea (EFN) ratings can draw additional guests into the queue, but if theyre turning away in favour of something else maybe its time to look at a change. Remember that a park needs to cater for lots of different types of guests, you can use heatmaps to quickly assess which areas of your park might need some attention.Control the flow of your park with pathsEvery attraction is linked together with one common thread, vital for getting your guests from A to B of course, were talking about paths! In Planet Coaster 2 you can create tight twisting walkways through your scenery, wide open plazas, and everything in between using a pathing tool redesigned with flexibility in mind. Youll find a variety of tools to create, edit and connect your paths exactly how you wish, and you can use three different types of path to keep things moving; regular paths to connect every aspect of your park, queues for the entrances to rides and flumes, and staff paths to keep guests away from the inner workings of your theme park machine. Mastering paths gives you even greater control over the flow of guests and the aesthetics of your park.The Blueprints to successBlueprints allow you to place a pre-themed ride, slide, shop, even a group of different scenery items. Theyre a great place to start when you just want to get things moving. The in-game Frontier Workshop also allows you to save your own creations as a blueprint for other players to drop into their park, so you can share your skills with the world, or add someone elses creation to your own!Share the park construction with a friend!Have a friend whos the most incredible coaster creator? Or maybe youre looking for inspiration to take you to the top of the leaderboards? In both Sandbox and Franchise modes, you can team up with up to three other players to create a park together, passing your creation between players to work on one at a time. Whether you choose to build in the same space, or take your own section of the sandbox to sculpt, youll have to consider consistent theming and look at the guest experience in the same way real-world park design teams do. Collaboration is key!Its all connected to the Power and Water systems!As you play Planet Coaster 2, youll need to consider Power and Water as you expand your park. Rides and Shops will require Power in order to remain operational, and will need to be within range of a distributor to access the power youre generating. Pools on the other hand, need a water pump and filter to keep them looking sparkling and ready for your guests to jump into! Connecting your pools and slides to a water filtration system will improve their cleanliness, and similar to power, you can use the radius of the water pump to see whats covered. After all, no one wants to splash around in grimy water!Come rain or shineDynamic weather also arrives for the first time in Planet Coaster 2, bringing with it new considerations for your guests. If its a hot sunny day, youll need to provide shade and adequate opportunities for guests to buy suncream. If its pouring with rain, an umbrella will keep your guests dry and happy. Make sure your vendors are appropriately priced for the demand and ready to offer the solution, whatever the weather! Staff ManagementKeeping your guests happy is one thing, but dont forget to keep the people happy who are well, keeping your guests happy!
