Sorna Transport rating issues?

[Aspen]

Somehow, my transport rating on Isla Sorna is a whopping 1%, despite having a wide fancy path circling the island with small fancy paths branching off to different attractions and amenities, AND a monorail system that goes around the whole place. Is this a glitch, or what's the deal?

The rating is dependent on how close the rails are to the high traffic areas. I'd try and get them close to hotels and viewing platforms. If you've already done that it's probably a bug.

Shops have an AOE and I suspect the monorail station does to. I always built mine pretty close to the entrance and attractions and got good ratings.

My guess is if the AOE of your stations combinned do not cover the majority of your hotels, shops and attractions your rating will not be that high.

I supose it could also be just what % of your paths fall with in the AOE of the station. Maybe even a combination of both buildings and paths.

Paths themselves I do not think contribute to your transportation rating. I have not payed that close attention to it before building stations so I could be wrong.

I hate this system and have the same problem, I did the same thing with my monorail on sorna. I hope some mods can fix this or the devs change it. It takes away from the 'build your own' park idea because you have to put buildings in certain locations. I mean people would be going to the customer buildings like gift shops no matter where they are and if you had the population they would all be succesful as long as they were managed well with items and pricing, stuff like this is why people are calling it a mediocre or bad park managment game because there is no real managment system just a shallow place this here within proximity of that system. I built sorna in a way where I had all my buildings together in clusters in each of the 3 'open areas' so I had room for more/bigger enclosures and many of my buildings only get a few customers even when being a necessity like a restaurant selling food, I mean its an island they cant just be like "meh we'll eat when we go home thats too far to walk over by the ranger station to eat". Hate the radius design it even sucks for dinosaur environment preference, one part of an eenclosure will keep a dino happy but if she walks to another area it drives them nuts and they break out and attack which makes the social/environment needs confusing to really figure out. Don't know for sure but it seems the population, social, and environment radius may be different, maybe changes? Wish there was more info about how these systems actually worked and if its possible the devs will rethink or rework them to make more sense or atleast not make everything radius based.

I Also am experiencing this, My stations are all close to Hotels/Attractions, I've read on the Bug fourms that a possible work-around is to Completely Delete your monorail System and redo it, not a guaranteed Fix though

EDIT: Just tried it, didn't work for me.

I just encountered this and finally got it figured out. I had 220 million dollars and I restructured the park.

A monorail system that goes around the entire island will not work, you'll need to split it .Get rid of all the buildings near the park dropoff entrance and build 2 monorail systems, one going left and the other going right.


Build a hotel and other amenities at the destinations. Finally got that 5 star and the last skin unlock. Large paths and paths in general don't really help with the transport rating.

It can work. I 5-starred Sorna just fine using a single monorail loop to connect the front (where all my hotels are, along with most shops) to each of two small "viewing areas" I'd built in the other two valleys. Besides two small-ish enclosures in one little corner for carnivores, and a spot for my Hammond to spit out dinos, the rest of the park was an open "safari" design. Worked out just fine in the end, and 5-starring it was no issue whatsoever.

I wonder if connecting the monorail in a full loop causes the problem?
