ia it because there is a u turn after the sick triceratops? if that is the case then it makes sense in regards to the car direction

In the books the tour ride loops around the Stegosaurus paddock and goes back the way it came. In the movies I believe they did a similar thing when passing the Triceratops enclosure, that's why they are at the same spot they came from (perhaps using a worker tunnel as shortcut), thus facing the other way when they are returning to the visitor center.

Other reason and shorter answer: movie logic

I'm no expert... but i know why.

Basically the tour starts going generally west to east, with 2 loop points for the vehicles to turn around on the track. At some point shortly after the Trike scene, they have to cancel the tour due to the weather and rather than the tour continuing south towards the other herbivors (the scene with the bracs and paras, with gallis further south) the tour vehicles do a turn around at the centre loop point and then starts backtracking the way it came... then you get the famous... Rex scene.

I hope this was helpful as i am aware its not shown or explained in the film.

Indeed, you can improvise a slightly inaccurate walk around to compensate for the fact you cant change direction, backtrack or crossover the track. In the film, its not a single loop like in the game. In the film its basically a giant wonky 8 shape with a couple of turn around points, the west to east entry and exit track through the main gates to or from the VC and the ability to back track.

This is my biggest gripe with this dlc, the inability to create a film or lore accurate track... but this is a... personnel problem lol

Yea my park is based on the assumption of the t rex showing up the first time they went around the t rex padlock.

so basically if there wasn't a storm and they didn't turn back.

Yeah this is where parks will differ and us fanbois may have a problem lol... mine goes past Rexys paddock the breakout way... and the nearby Dilo pen is next to a turn around point and tunnel... throw in a small map to work with... and you are going to have all types of problems lol, i had to temporary compensate by technically putting the dilo pen on the wrong side of the track. I am relocating both paddocks atm to finalise my park and then i am officially completely done with my film park. The texture painting, false mountain creation and individual tree planting has taken a lot longer than expected... i have OCD lol

Then i am doing the LW, then JP3... i have to do both seperately due to the dino skins not matching... but i may just do JP3 and compensate the differences with fan lore as it will be much easier... the only problem with this is once again map space.

The problem is the only info is from misleading tour power maps in the films computers (2 different maps) and what you see. The rest is from official maps of the completed park (the park was never finished)... and as pointed out by other users, the rest of the gaps were filled in (cue mr dna) by the fans... and some of that work was even made cannon "incorrectly"...

Like i said... i have OCD lol

At the end of the day... every park is now going to be different.
