Planet Coaster: Console Edition

For this achievement, we’re going to be using Sandbox mode.

Start by selecting ‘Sandbox’ from the main menu, then on the next screen, choose a region. When the map opens, extend the path that’s already there a bit farther because we will be placing roughly 8 rides along the path.

Once the path is created, press or to select ‘Rides’. Place 8 different rides along the path, each with entrances and exits. It doesn’t matter which ones, as long as there is variety. It is recommended that you make the queue lines short (instead of long in Career mode) because you want the maximum amount of people spilling over into the main path. In addition, once you place the ride, open it. When everything is in place, fast forward time by holding and pressing twice.

If you want, you can place small shops in between the rides, as well as create a couple of marketing campaigns, to draw in more guests, but these aren’t required.

Next, we are going to build part of a coaster that’s in direct line of the path. Press or to select ‘Coasters’ the press to ‘Create Custom’. Press to select ‘Launched’ and choose a coaster. Place the platform in line of the path, roughly the same distance as the path you added. Before placing it, verify that the direction of the coaster is going towards the path. Start building your track, having it ascend a couple of track pieces before leveling out and then curving down so it can pick up speed. Descend the track so it’s still above your path so the coaster cars fly off the track.

Once that’s in place, make sure there are enough guests in the park (that number is in the center-left bottom of the screen). If the number is decent, test the coaster and watch the magic happen. Keep it testing until the achievement unlocks.

If for some reason it doesn’t, whether it’s not lined up correctly or if it’s landing too far from the guests, you may have to adjust the path, track, or build a whole new coaster.
