What to do when coasters crash - naveisawesome - Feb 22, 2015

Hi everyone,
I was just recording for my lets play series, and after I made a coaster I tried it out with smaller trains, which resulted in it crashing
It was still testing at the time, so no one was killed and my park rating didnt drop
However, once it crashed, even if I put it under construction, it would not start up again
So, I had to go through the process of making an exact replica, deleting pieces of the old track and replacing them with a new exactly the same coaster
And this was very time consuming
I was not able to save it at that point, as I changed the car number
So I was wondering if a coaster crashes, is there a way, without it being saved to exit the game, to actually revive the coaster, so that it will start moving again?
Thanks,
naveisawesome

btw also right as I was rebuilding the track, another one of my coaster crashed from brake failure, so I saved that one by going out and just saving the track and not the design, fewf
Very good timing and luckily I hadn't placed scenery

If you are building in RCT2 I wish I could help but I haven't played the game much.
But wow! After all of that work how irritating. Hope you get it resolved. Smile

Since the coaster has crashed, the flag next to the coaster should be red indicating that the coaster is closed. Click on the flag, then in the dropdown menu, hit "closed" twice, or as many times as it takes for the red "Crashed" indicator to go away at the bottom of the ride window. I just did this with a ride that had crashed in one of my saved games, and it was as though nothing had happened.

thanks Terry, I made another coaster that crashed on purpose to test that theory, and it worked!
