Back from a long hiatus! Plus, special roller coaster feature!

Hey, I am back! Just came back from a long hiatus, as I resumed my Second Life journey once again! I went to Cassiar, a location in the Second Life grid, where I had built a roller coaster that has been here for over a year now. The roller coaster is called the "Shuttle Loop Coaster", which is a very loosely inspired from the roller coaster of the same name that is found in Chris Sawyer's "Rollercoaster Tycoon I", a theme-park building game that I used to play a lot. The only difference in the Second Life rendition of it is that the roller coaster is a "reverse freefall" coaster, which pulls the coaster car backwards to the top of the lift hill and releasing it at the very end of it, giving the coaster car the necessary potential to kinetic energy to make it past the loop and back.

Here is the SLurl of the roller coaster ride:

Here are some screenshots that I have taken today:

"Whee! Finally back to enjoy my roller coaster ride! Let it rip!"

"Here it goes!" The chain lift hill is pulling the roller coaster car backwards.

The chain lift is pulling the coaster car all the way to the top!

The coaster car reaches the end of the lift hill, and is released from the top. That diving feeling is awesome!

"Yay! Loop-de-loop! Woohoo!!!"

Staring at the deep blue ocean below, "Awww man. It is so far down from here!".

Standing beside a plaque of my now-defunct SL company, which I installed beside the ride early last year.

Another angle of the ride, that shows the two ends of the coaster track with the loop in the centre!

Do pop by to try the coaster out, the next time you enter Second Life! It works at a click of the button! Hope you enjoyed my post, thank you for checking out my blog. See you next time, and goodbye for now!
