Decoration and Illusion Score:

Some notes about my expierences in managing decoration and llusion score.
Motivation:

After playning some scenarios I tried to determine, how to design the park to

get the best illusion. All I this information was discovered by experimentation

and observation. There might be other aspects and elements implemented.

Also this is observed with version 1.2.
What decreases the score for a place:

– Infrastructure visibile.

– Demolished furniture (benches, trash cans, lamps).

– Junk on the pathes.

– Border fence.
Decoration elements increase the score but:

– There must be elements of decoration to any direction of a place.

– Just painted terrain does not count.

– Terraforming can help to hide bad elements.
Observations about Illusion Score:

– The most customers start with neutral or bad illusion score.

– The score rises when customers are at places with good decoration score.

– The score drops when customers are are places with bad decoration score.

– The score drops when customers see staff that is carrying stuff.

– It takes some time to build up a good illusion score.

– To forge illusion a slow moving ride in decorated environment is helpful

(e.g. Old Cars Ride).
