BGE Roller coaster

The roller coaster route can easily modified by deformation the curve in Edit Mode.

The wagons of the roller coaster are connected to an Armature , the Armature is moved in the Y direction by an Empty and the bones of the Armature are following the path of the curve.

I set the Inverse Kinematics of the Armature on iTaSC / Simulation, so the roller coaster adapts properly along the route (Object Data / Inverse Kinematics / iTaSC / Simulation)

Here is a short demo video:

I also used the setting for animate the train in this video:

I think this is the first real-time roller coaster in Blenders game engine, but I'm not sure.

Have fun with it :)

Roller coaster Controls:

Forward Speed: Right Mouse Button

Reverse Speed: Left Mouse Button

    This looks really neat - I just started using Blender, so I'm not sure this is possible, but I'm downloading this for later use on an animation... Thanks! :)

    Dude, you're awesome! I've been trying (off and on) for a while trying to get a rollercoaster working in just an animation without screwing up :3

    You have to start the game engine first, then you can control the roller coaster. To start the game engine you need to press the P-key in the 3d-view window.

    Many people say "I can't help but talk about the annoyance of ads, they interrupt the gaming experience quite a lot". But in the new version, Block Blast is completely ad-free and gives players an extremely wonderful experience.
