Gaps in land with construction rights in Six Flags over Texas and other parks

[Basssiiie]

Operating System

Windows 10, 64-bit

OpenRCT2 build

OpenRCT2, v0.4.1-159-g59c31e8 (59c31e8 on develop) provided by GitHub

Describe the issue

There are a few gaps in the area with construction rights in 'Six Flags over Texas', specifically under the parking lot next to the orange Titan coaster. Since similar issues in other base game parks were also fixed, I figured I'd report this one as well.

The same issue is also present in the empty 'Build your own Six Flags over Texas' park.

Area(s) with issue?

The bug also exists in RCT2 (vanilla)

Steps to reproduce

1. Open 'Six Flags over Texas'.
2. Select the park entrance.
3. Hide paths and vegetation
4. View the land rights next to the orange Titan coaster.

Another one in Urban Park (about halfway through the town, at x: 46, y: 47), which was mentioned on Discord a couple days ago, but hasn't gotten an issue yet:

Without anything hidden:

Doesn't this also happen in some of the RCT2 expansion scenarios (e.g. Mythological Madness)?

[Basssiiie]

Yess you are right, there's two gaps in available land to buy on the small island left of the park entrance in Mythological Madness/Cradle of Civilization.

If you know any more, please share them :)

[Basssiiie]

Found another one in Robin Hood/Sherwood Forest.

[SpartanFrederic104]

Spotted one in Rock 'n' Roll Revival, in the large forest outside the starting park boundaries.

A few construction rights tiles are also missing above the sea in Schneider Shores.


And wow there's quite a number of missing purchasable land tiles in Rocky Rambles. Good thing my Time Twister Redux scenario pack fixed these issues.

[733737]

how would the developers patch these scenarios? Does anybody currently plan on implementing fixes for these issues? I know they patched a scenario that had a water coaster vehicle bug

[Basssiiie]

@733737 there are already land ownership fixes for RCT2's "European Culture Festival", "Extreme Hawaiian Island" implemented here and for various RCT1 scenario's here. This should be an easy issue any beginner could pick up. :)

[Basssiiie]

Found 2 more issues in Schneider Cup:

The right one (the bush) cannot be bought at all while the left one can be bought as construction rights but that seems to be a mistake since the rest of the map is split between buyable = land, construction rights = water.

[SpartanFrederic104]

Found yet another one in Sherwood Forest.

[SpartanFrederic104]

Asia - Great Wall of China Tourism Enhancement (Great Wall of China) has tile [127, 31] as a purchasable land tile. It should be land owned by park since money is disabled in that scenario anyway.

[Basssiiie]

Another one in Utopia Park (Added Attractions/Corkscrew Follies), originally reported on Reddit.

[Basssiiie]

Another one in the back of Katies Dreamland, where the underground coaster is (Followed through on a mention on Reddit as well.)

[Basssiiie]

Another one reported in the same Reddit thread; in the Grand Canyon scenario (Wacky Worlds), there are some tiles in the water near the map's edge that cannot be bought for construction rights.

Reported positions are: Tiles x131 y90, x132 y90, x133 y91, x134 y91, x135 y91, x136 y91, but there is a second group further up the river which is also circled here:

And two more tiles at where the river splits in two:

[Basssiiie]

Might as well write a plugin script to find these. 😛

Two groups of three and one more here:

One more here at the river split:

[Basssiiie]

South America - Incan Lost City (Wacky Worlds), these should all be construction rights owned.

Near the entrance:

Near the peep spawn:

In the corner with the temple of the golden llamas:

[Basssiiie]

Maharaja Palace (Wacky Worlds), these should all be for sale.

On the right side of the palace:

Underwater, near the little island:

Four groups in the center of the river, right behind the palace:

[Basssiiie]

Asia - Japanese Coastal Reclaim (Wacky Worlds)

One tile one the left side near the bullet train coaster, on the cliff edge, should be owned construction rights:

One tile on the right side in the centre of the temple, should be construction rights for sale:

On the biggest of the two small islands, there's four spots that should either be construction rights for sale (left three spots), or land for sale (rightmost spot):

[Basssiiie]

Antartica - Ecological Salvage (Wacky Worlds)

One single tile in the water near the igloos and the stairs down to the water, should be for sale:

[Basssiiie]

Mythological - Animatronic Film Set (Time Twister)

Three tiles in the canyon in the middle of the map, next to the station of the Harpies Rollercoaster, these should be owned construction rights:

[Basssiiie]

Prehistoric - Jurassic Safari (Time Twister)

In the canyon, right under the Pterodactyl Terror flying rollercoaster, this tile should be construction rights:

[Basssiiie]

Roaring Twenties - Schneider Cup (Time Twister) has a bunch more...

Right next to the biggest of the two cruise liners, 3 tiles split in two groups, should be construction rights for sale:

Five tiles at the tip of the island closest to the biggest cruise liner, should be construction rights for sale (but note that it's right next to land for sale):

Two groups, left one with 2 tiles and right one with 4 tiles, next to the starting point for the race, should be construction rights for sale:

[Basssiiie]

Two more tiles in Rock 'n Roll - Rock 'n Roll that should be for sale:

One is next to the small waterfall and the Jet Plane Coaster:

The other one is in the far corner of the map in the forest:

[SpartanFrederic104]

Quite a number of them in Six Flags Magic Mountain (I will give out the coordinates in [x, y] format):

[104, 190], [105, 190], [108, 197]

[75, 167]

[61, 92-95], [62, 90-94]

[92-93, 57], [89, 40-42], [90, 42]

[168-169, 20]

[SpartanFrederic104]

Six Flags Holland:

[112, 33-34]

[113-117, 117], [114-117, 118]

[Basssiiie]

Six Flags Holland, 9 tiles in the river in the far corner of the map near Goliath, these should be for sale:

Two tiles near Robin Hood should be for sale as well:

Edit: ah they were just reported 2 seconds ago 😛

[733737]

if there is a guide on how to patch these scenarios I guarantee I willl patch them all and submit a PR within a week. Right now I don't know how, but I would gladly put the time and effort if I did

[Basssiiie]

@733737 You can look at how this PR was done for inspiration, maybe it helps: #15156 For RCT1 scenarios you'd have to do similar changes to this file.

[733737]

If Gymnasiast has been assigned to this then I am giving up on fixing it, I'll wait for Gymnasiast to do it, even if it takes a long time

[733737]

I think I fixed six flags holland import with my code, can somebody verify?

[733737]

I have a serious issue with implementing more fixes: #1 I need to know exact coordinates in x,y values for every park #2 I need to know if the issue is it should be owned, for sale, or contruction rights #3 I don't know how to implement construction rights as I only see OWNERSHIP_AVAILABLE and OWNERSHIP_OWNED in the code

[733737]

Africa - Oasis (Mirage Madness) has a tile of construction rights at [61, 35] that should be land not owned by park.

Gymnasiast would have to fix this because I can't read his code to see if OWNERSHIP_UNOWNED is a thing

[Gymnasiast]

Yes, OWNERSHIP_UNOWNED is a thing.

[Basssiiie]

As mentioned before, I don't think there's any harm in leaving that in, and it's kinda funny. I'd say only fix the ones that can annoy people.

[HtotheTML]

Dark Age - Castle has park boundaries that make the path unusable here.

[HtotheTML]

Six Flags Great Adventure contains a few stray owned tiles.

[HtotheTML]

Africa - Oasis

[HtotheTML]

pre-owned tiles in Ecological Salvage

[Basssiiie]

@HtotheTML Some of these are not obstructing right? Just mistakes. I don't think they need fixing as they're just a funny quirk, not causing frustration.

[HtotheTML]

Still an issue of land ownership, but this segment of prebuilt underground path in Cradle of Civilization is outside park boundaries even though it's meant to be inside the park.

[SpartanFrederic104]

Is it actually purchasable land though?

[HtotheTML]

that land is purchasable, yes, however that segment should be changed to already owned rather than for sale, or the path should be moved or changed.

[Basssiiie]

What about having construction rights where the path is?

[HtotheTML]

I think that would be reductive, since those tiles are normally purchasable land, along with most of the rest of the map.

[HtotheTML]

I'm a bit unsure how to handle fixes other than making purchasable land for RCT1 scenarios, since the code formatting is different.

[Gymnasiast]

Just call FixLandOwnershipTilesWithOwnership(tiles, OWNERSHIP_AVAILABLE); and replace OWNERSHIP_AVAILABLE with the correct ownership status.

Dark Age - Another path that is blocked underground by park boundaries.
