you are placing any additional scenery items in your park and hold down the Control key,
it will be placed at that height. This is particularly useful for building large expanses of
roof and platforms.
CREATING WATERFALLS
Waterfalls can only be constructed between
two adjacent bodies of water where one is
higher than the other.
First, modify the terrain to create a raised area
— for best results, use the “Multi-tile freeform
terrain shaping” tool. Next, create a pit on the
raised area and then add water (consult the
RollerCoaster Tycoon
®
3 manual for instructions
on adding water bodies). This higher water
body must have a flat / straight edge over
which you want the water to flow. Then, create
a pit at the base of the raised area and add water there, too, ensuring that there is at
least some water in the lower body that is roughly underneath the flat / straight edge
over which you want the water to flow.
Finally, click the Waterfalls button to activate the waterfall function, then first click the
raised water body to select it, and then click the lower water body to select it. If the ter-
rain has been formed properly, a waterfall will be created automatically. The width of the
waterfall is selected based on the narrower of a) the length of the flat / straight edge on
the raised water body; and b) the width of the lower water body underneath this edge
into which the waterfall will discharge. Use this information to create waterfalls of what-
ever height and width you choose.

FEATURES
TUTORIALS
RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Wild! includes tutorials for several of the new features, including
how to construct Animal Enclosures, Wild Coasters, and Safari Transports; how to con-
duct Animal Care; and how to customize Lion and Tiger Shows. The tutorials can be
found in the main menus of the game.
HIRING THE ANIMAL KEEPER
The Animal Keeper is an employee added to the list of staff members available in Wild!
and has employee options similar to other staff members and is needed for looking after
the care and feeding of animals in your park. When an animal house is added, one keep-
er is automatically hired. But as the population for an animal enclosure grows, additional
animal keepers may be required to keep the animals healthy.
Note: Animal Keepers are not required for the lion show, the tiger show, the elephant
transport ride, the insect, reptile, or nocturnal animal houses or any animals appearing
in your park from other expansion packs.
USING THE CONTROL KEY TO BUILD ELEVATED SCENERY AND STRUCTURES
A new and improved method for building elevated portions buildings and scenery (such
as roofs) can now be accomplished using the Control key. Use the following steps to
learn how to do this.
After you’ve built the walls of a structure, build the roofline attached to the top of the
wall. This is accomplished in the same way as with
RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, where you
first select a roof piece from the scenery structures menu, and then position the pointer
where you want to place the roof piece, hold the Shift key and nudge the mouse up until
the piece is positioned correctly. Now click to place it there. To add another roof piece at
the
same height, move the pointer so it touches the previously placed roof-piece, and
then press the Control key. This action assigns that height to the Control key so when
