Ride Creation Contests
Go Karts, Mr Bones, Contest

Hey everyone!

The skeleton objects from the Spooky Set, better known as Mr. Bones, has become a legend after Mr. Bones' wild ride went viral! In this contest, you have to build a map, where you place at least one Mr Bones object. You also have to build a Go Karts ride! It can be a realistic Go karts ride, or it can be a wacky one. The choice is yours!

Rules

You are allowed to team up with one other person in this round! It doesn't matter if you teamed up with the same person in the previous round!

Rule 1: You have to place a Mr Bones (The skeleton object from the spooky set) somewhere in the map. It must at least be partially visible from at least 1 angle!
Rule 2: You must build a Go Karts ride. You have to run it in race mode. You must use one of the Go Karts vehicles from RCT1, RCT2 or one of the official expansions.
Rule 3: The deadline for this contest will be on the 26th of April at 19:00 CEST!
Rule 4: For this contest, you are only allowed to use objects from the RCT1 and RCT2 base game and their official expansions, OpenRCT2-official objects, and custom objects that are included in the DKSO v1 bench. Custom objects that are not in the DKSO v1 bench are not allowed, so make sure you don't use those. You are also allowed to use a custom palette if you want.
Rule 5: The maximum map size for this round is 2000 tiles. This number will be calculated by multiplying the size of the map edges. You could for example make a map that is 40 x 50 tiles, or 44 x 45 tiles.
Rule 6: There is no limit to the amount of opened rides you can have in the park.
Rule 7: Have fun!
