What to study

The coaster tool keeps every decision in one wide window: curve and slope shapes as icon grids, a numeric segment length, a circular dial for bank angle (here 55 degrees), and the price of the next segment floating on the ghost track itself (-$268.00). The player never leaves the 3D view to design, and the cost feedback sits on the track rather than in a separate ledger. It shows how a builder can stay tactile: pick a shape, set an angle, see the price, build. Frame at about 1:02 in the Launch Trailer (Steam).
