Basic Workflow

Create your first track with connected sections and test the ride.

Basic Node Graph Simple track with Anchor, Geometric Section, and Force Section connected

Creating Your First Track

1. Add a Geometric Section

  • Right-click in the Node Graph
  • Select Geometric Section from the menu
  • Press F to focus on the new node

2. Create a Starting Point

  • Double-click the Anchor input port (left side of node)
  • This creates an Anchor Node with the starting track point
  • Adjust the Position, Pitch, and Velocity values as needed

3. Add a Force Section

Method 1: Manual connection

  • Right-click → Force Section
  • Drag from Geometric Section output to Force Section input

Method 2: Auto-connect (recommended)

  • Drag from Geometric Section output port
  • Select Force Section from the context menu
  • New node automatically connects

4. Test Your Track

  • Space - Play/pause the simulation
  • R - Toggle ride camera for first-person view
  • Scrub bar - Drag to move through time manually

Game View (3D)

  • Right-click + WASD - Fly camera mode
  • Alt + Mouse Drag - Orbit around track
  • F - Focus on selected sections

Node Graph

  • Middle Mouse Drag - Pan view
  • Mouse Wheel - Zoom in/out
  • F - Frame selected nodes
