Very helpful.. been struggling to build any kind of coaster that is functioning and guess I really didn't understand how in depth this game went with the coaster building. You've given me hope to try again though. also didn't realize smoothing the pieces out was as simple as clicking a button that reads smooth, so another helpful tidbit from this video. Extremely helpful and appreciate your time making this video

Thanks man, this is really useful stuff. I've been building my own coasters recently and g-force has been one of the biggest challenges. You've got a new subscriber!

This has helped me so much with one of the scenarios where i must have spent hours trying to understand why is it complaining about "exceeds g-forge limits". After watching this, I completed that in about 15 mins. You have earned a subscriber :)

Lateral Gs, is worst Gs. Put a lot of strain on your neck. Negative Vertical "airtime" is what most want, so bunny hops (camel humps) are perfect. Thanks again for a good tutorial. Made it more clear what does what :)

Thanks mate, I'm really enjoying your videos. I created a rollercoaster today that was an absolute deathtrap, so this video will help me with the next one :)

Really great work. Keep it up. These Videos are exactly what i was looking for.

Thanks for this series of videos, they've been very helpful in building. Keep up the great work!

Thank you jonti for your helpful advice on all the helpful information on the different elements and g-forcrs

Really great lesson! Learned a lot in game for coaster building and even real life applications! Keep up the great work.

I was ready to build my first coaster. Didn't pull out a loan, built it as I went. I was excited about high lifts, deep ascend, quick turns, loops and inverts. My first two or three attempts came back as "too scary, no one will ride it."

It should be noted that even with good overall numbers on E/F/N on a coaster, large spikes of G forces into intolerable levels will cause people to not want to ride it.

been watching your tutorial playlist, love it, keep it up. very informative ^^

I searched up tutorials for this game and now i have been watching your videos all night at work. Really would be interested in seeing you do the campaign mode also. I like watching your lets build and the challenges you did show you could do the campaign and make so really nice parks. Just interested in seeing more of your content.

Really good video Geekism, helped me understand more on the creation of my coasters now. Only had the game a few days. So was struggling with some of the objectives. A very clear explanation to assist. Good job.

best planet coaster tutorials on youtube :) keep it up :)

Thank you again for making these videos! I am definitely going to be using all of your tips and tricks for my parks. Subscribed! :)

Foward G's and Backward G's are Linear G's if you want to generalize them.

Fantastic. I turned my friend on to your channel. You've helped us both.

Thank you so much for this, you're the best.

thank you this vid really helped me.

Awesome help thank you so much taking your time to teach us noobs this stuff!!

I think that in the second example about vertical G, that good numbers are good because before check, you used the smooth tool, than, even moving up manually, the point of inclination became more smooth, probably before this, when you manually make that little part starting the climb, the number probably were worst! But about your content, simply amazing bro, I'm learning a lot!

"squish ya face in" XD. Nice video. Was confused on lateral and forward Gs and what they mean

Great video man it really help! keep the good work

Interesting video, thank you!

Another word of thanks seeing as the game itself doesn't really explain the numbers! Cheers!

Great work as always - this along with your other video has helped turn my roller coasters from vomit comets into actually enjoyable experiences. One question though - is there a general rule on how much banking you should have for turns? Sometimes I feel like I bank too much which actually increases the fear (and nausea) rating, so I was curious.

Much like fear; you want some g-force, but not too much. The magic number for g-force is somewhere between 4 and 5. The ideal speed for a coaster is usually somewhere between 30-50mph. These are just rough guidelines that can be broken, but if you're looking for high excitement you really want to monitor your g-force. Airtime humps are also a winner in this game.

Thanks very helpful

So doesn’t a lot of lateral g force happen on wild mouse coasters that make you feel like you are going to fly off the edge?

Wow that quick up and down dip coaster, that's a nightmare. (*CW:* Morbid talk below!) I'm pretty sure the G force going down on that coaster, regardless of what damage it might do to your neck could give you brain damage and make you black out; you can handle maybe 2Gs in that direction and it's reading 10, hah. At that point all of the blood is going to swell into your brain and cause your brain to asphyxiate, and could cause brain hemorrhaging and contusions. Vessels in the eyes could even rupture at that point. It's a Bad Scene™. Even that upwards G force, while more tolerable, at that level is almost certainly going to cause people to pass out. Some people pass out even in 'safe' g forces and at that level is basically 'astronaut probably going to go blind temporarily' levels of g forces. The forward and lateral Gs won't even matter at that point, hah.. like at that point it's just rag-dolling your unconscious or possibly dead body around.

What I have seen is as long as g’s don’t exceed 5 it is generally good. You can see when g’s start to become too much as if you will have a bad nausea part. Nausea will also rise with rolls and such. So long as it is below three it tends to be negligible. Positives g’s are good, so are rolls, which create lateral. Sometimes upping the g forces will increase excitement. I was building a ride and I was trying to make a loop bigger to decrease a spot that was at 4.8g’s. When I reduced the tightness of the loop to about a 4.3 at max the excitement shot down two points. If your g forces don’t cause nausea, it means it’s a smooth g force and is enjoyable! Don’t be afraid of g’a otherwise you’ll make a bunch of boring rides!

i was hopeless before this video thanks

ouch my physicist ears bled when you said "the power of gravity" but that's ok :D When people talk about "G-force" it's simply the force produced by a mass subjected to an acceleration (it's simply Newton's third law, force equals mass times acceleration). That acceleration can be the Earth gravity, so 1 G, which is what you get in a free fall, skydiving. You don't get more than 1 G skydiving. You can get more than 1 G if you introduce an artificial acceleration. In a rollercoaster, it can be being launched OR from a curve. Because whenever there is a curve, you force the coaster to go out of its natural (inertia) trajectory. If you force it out from going straight, you get the lateral G from the first coaster. If you force it out from going horizontally, either by having an up section or a down section, you get the up/down G from the second coaster. So, in that case the mass is the coaster, and the acceleration is the angular acceleration from the curve or up/down section. And of course the launch section gets you that forward G. And in that case the acceleration is simply the coaster's motorized/hydrolic acceleration.

for that lateral gs track , is is possible to give it more than 1 circuit? Like 3 or 4 times, like a powered mine train or bayern kurve style ride?

Amazing!! Word's gotta get out about you!..

I've Been stuck on the 4nd level where you have to Build a 5 point excitement, - 5 nausea ans 5sec airtime coaster for two days, and this may help a lot ! thanks !

Outstanding video as usual. One comment on terminology you used. Positive Gs press you into your seat, while negative Gs make you float, not the other way around.

To make G force a bit clearer, you are experiencing 1 G of force as you are right now, just staying still and chilling. If you are experiencing 2 Gs of force, lets say downward, you will feel twice as heavy as you normally are. If you are experiencing 2 Gs of force in any other direction other than down, you will feel like you are being pulled in that direction at the force of your own body weight. 3 Gs of force would be 3 times your body weight pulling on you, or 3 times the force of gravity, and so on so forth. This puts strain on the riders, especially their neck and head, that's why you want to avoid lateral Gs as best you can.

big lateral gs were the biggest killers for roller coasters back in the good old rct days

Please help me. I had a big problem with lateral G-force, so what I did was making the bend larger and banking it. The lateral G-force was fixed, but I created a new problem: the vertical G-force was problematic. And I don't understand because in that bend, the train doesn't go up or down, so how can the vertical G-force be affected? The bend occurs after a drop, but I still don't see the problem, because my train doesn't go up or down in that bend.

Basic question....when you are building, should you have the simulator off......it seems you should....before you know it a years has gone by and planted one tree

How to turn on the heatmaps while building and without testing??

straight up G's

It's like professor Brian Cox is making Planet Coaster vids ;)

pushing 6G on big coasters is fine if it's vertical Gs, always keeps fear and nausea in the green.

God bless youtube and it's x1.5 playback speed

Where did YOU download planet coaster?

You not want fear down, if fear is at 5, it is perfect for coaster.

is there a way to remove that support on top of the vertical loop? Looks awful. Not realistic.

Almost 1K

Subtitles be like: lateral cheese, vertical cheese, launch cheese

Turned the likes into 699...most people would say 1 of... I wouldn't... 😏

My misses has to strap herself in and take 10G+ every time I take her for a ride!!! ...scream if you want to go faster!!!!

Love your tutorial videos but you really don't know physics do you ;) 6 g deceleration would NOT kill you not even close... it wouldnt be very fun but its certainly not fatal ;) First coaster I tried to build in this game pulled 19g at the bottom of the first drop.. THAT would be a problem ;)
