so, i made a coaster that shoots you up the first hill (like the hulk coaster) and i need a CS set that is basically a huge laser cannon to go around the track. i did try making one but i suck and it looked terrible

anyone know of a set that is a laser cannon?

Laser-Canon, huh? like the Deathstar (Star Wars)

Well the first question should be: should the laser-canon always there day/night time or only at night?

only for the night there are some neonlights CS out there to create an nice glow effect, exspecially for the lifthill:

If you want an lifthill that looks all the time like an laser canon i think an option could be to use another ride (Dingy Slide or Heartline-Coaster) and build track-in-track to create an "fake" canon.

Track in Track is possible, when you use an options.txt cheat:

Allow track to intersect itself 1

Beware: back-up before change anything in this file.

I dont know if there where some cso's out there that have 45degree angle round tunnel recolorable to build it without trackarchitecture.

An other option could be that you make a laser show with 6-8 spots on the lifthill start and the angle should be like the lifthill goes.
But this is only an idea, i have know idea if this is possible because i dont play around with fireworks/laser shows .

Maybe this helps,

i want it there all the time. its not really the tube that is the problem, i have a tube CS set, its the whole body of the cannon
