dont get disheartened if you have to restart some things a couple of times. its a necessary part of getting stuff done properly.

Thanks....
Here are the changes I made. I am using the EVO-X B&M Track. I had problems with the getting the footers in the right place. I tried several and the one's I used were the closest match. I don't know how to do the supports for the evacuation. Is there a tutorial on that? Helpful feedback always welcome. Thanks for the encouragement. SmileBiggrin

Looks way better than in the the past Smile.

The footers should match to 99% correctly, sometimes you must play around wih the supports and try out which support fits better. Thats why we/you should use different slope-angles, especially on the lifthill.
Good tip is, try to build the supports into the middle of an square, so the footer placing isn't really hard xD (Thats the thing that Silvarret did in his Video)

For the Evacuationpoint on the start of the lifthill use the spiral-staircases.

The Evacuationpoint at the end of the track, near the transfertrack you need not really a staircase, because the peeps/guests would use the catwalk that goes to the station.

The MCBR (Mid-Course-Break-Run) Evacuationpoint has different options, in fact of which coaster-type you are building.
B&M Sitdowns/Hyper/Floorless most of the time have spiral-staircases.
B&M Inverters uses the normal staircases, like this from "Montu".

Hope this helps.

If you use spiral stairs instead of straight for the evacuation, you won't need any supports. Smile

Thanks Cheleste and Blu. I'll keep working on it. I may not post anything for awhile now that I'm getting the hang of it.

Thanks guys for the help. Now that I'm getting the hang of it I may not post anything for awhile. Visuals are always great. I don't have a printer at this time so I have to look back at it from time to time. I've learned a lot from everyone.
