Kingda Ka

My recreation of Kingda Ka at Six Flags Great Adventure. This is meant to be an idealized version of the coaster. That is, it's Kingda Ka as it's meant to be, rather than Kingda Ka as it currently exists. To be specific, I have taken the following liberties:

-The original infield queue area is in use.

-The trim brakes on top of the tower are gone, allowing proper airtime in all rows.

-The turnaround at the end of the ride has been pulled a lot further in, allowing trains to return to the station faster and reducing the launch interval.

-The final brake block ends just before the switch track at the station entrance. This allows this switch track to move at pretty much any time, and allows the next train to launch as soon as a train clears this point.

-The first big one: The station has been entirely reconfigured. The rear stations are now dedicated unloading stations. Trains unload at the rear, move up to the front to load, and dispatch one at a time from alternating sides. This works even better than the original configuration that loaded and unloaded trains at all four stations. What really makes it work well is...

-The second big one: A fifth train has been added! This one's yellow, based on the one seen in Kingda Ka's animated announcement video. This is what really makes everything work well, keeping the unload stations from sitting empty and giving the trains plenty of time to unload. It also has the side effect of causing the trains to return to the side opposite from where they left, which I really like. It's like how Tatsu runs three trains, or how Storm Runner would run three trains if it had a third.

Oh, and all the control panels are custom. They're not accurate to the real ones since the available controls in NL2 differ greatly from what's on the real coaster. I just put everything that makes sense onto them, and the main panel in the booth has literally everything. Also, the trains have 20 seats, while the real coaster's trains are missing their back row and therefore only have 18 seats.

The specs!

Max Height 456.391 ft
Drop Height 418 ft
Max Speed 118 MPH
Track length: 3420.72 ft (w/o storage)
Max Vert G 4.63
Min Vert G -0.49 (but you will get more in the front and back of the train!)
Max Lat G 0.4
Launch acceleration 1.2 G
Launch interval: 36 sec
Capacity: 2000 RPH

Like all of my coasters, everything is timed extremely tightly and it will run at capacity all the time.
