Ride/Park Database Changes

I found something that needs to be updated in the park/ride database.

In the Knoebels area, Whirlwind needs to be put in the past rides section.

I figured maybe we could put errors and updates we find for the ride database in here.

Are you sure? The other rocket coasters are 52" and I can't find anything to prove that it would be 54"

Speaking of Knoebels, they have a lot of great flat rides (Carousel, Flyers, Scooters, the new Pendulum ride) that could be added

Its listed as 54 on the park map and I know its 54.
If you want we can wait for opening to be shure.

Dorney Park:

I think Joker was taken out, and it should go to past rides.

I think you will find out next week that Joker is still in the park, but I can't say for sure if it will be operating this year

I can say for sure. It has been completely dismantled, and there is no hope of it operating this season. So put it in the past rides section.

Ok. I fixed the Lake Compounce rides. Can anyone find out what IS the Kingda Ka height?

And about the dorney ride.. Did anyone look ona 2005 map to see if it was on it or not?

If anyone finds anymore things wrong or stuff that needs to be added just make a post about it and i can fix it.

Just something with Astroland, they have the following flat rides that should be added:

http://www.flatrides.com/Ride%20Inde...owersurge.html
http://www.flatrides.com/Ride%20Inde.../topspin2.html
http://www.flatrides.com/Ride%20Inde...nterprise.html
http://www.flatrides.com/Ride%20Inde...reakdance.html
There are some other rides in the adult section http://www.astroland.com/rides.html , but I can't find them on www.flatrides.com

I fixed this.

WildeFyre, I don't know how to delete a ride otherwise I would have taken care of it.

meowcoaster, I'm going to leave that one to someone with a little more knowledge of flat rides. James will probably take care of it when he comes back from his current coaster trip.
