DESCRIPTION
OpenRCT2 is an open-source re-implementation of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 (RCT2). The gameplay revolves
around building and maintaining an amusement park containing attractions, shops and facilities. The
player must try to make a profit and maintain a good park reputation whilst keeping the guests happy.
OpenRCT2 allows for both scenario and sandbox play. Scenarios require the player to complete a certain
objective in a set time limit whilst sandbox allows the player to build a more flexible park with
optionally no restrictions or finance.
RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 was originally written by Chris Sawyer in x86 assembly and is the sequel to
RollerCoaster Tycoon. The engine was based on Transport Tycoon, an older game which also has an
equivalent open-source project, OpenTTD. OpenRCT2 attempts to provide everything from RCT2 as well as
many improvements and additional features, some of these include support for modern platforms, an
improved interface, improved guest and staff AI, more editing tools, increased limits, and cooperative
multiplayer. It also re-introduces mechanics from RollerCoaster Tycoon that were not present in
RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. Some of those include; mountain tool in-game, the “have fun” objective, launched
coasters (not passing-through the station) and several buttons on the toolbar.

FILES
On UNIX systems, OpenRCT2 stores user configuration, data, and cache in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/OpenRCT2,
falling back to ~/.config/OpenRCT2 if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set in the environment.
NOTES
Playing OpenRCT2 requires original files of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 to play. It can be bought at either
Steam or GOG.com. If you have the original RollerCoaster Tycoon and its expansion packs, you can point
OpenRCT2 to these in order to play the original scenarios.
OpenRCT2 allows custom scripts (also known as plug-ins) to be written and executed in the game providing
additional behaviour on top of the vanilla experience. This can range from extra windows providing
information about the park to entire new multiplayer game modes.
Version 0.4.0 of OpenRCT2 introduced a new park save format that allows for higher limits and more
features than the original RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. Old .SV4 and .SV6 files will continue to work -
forever. The only thing changed is that you can no longer save to .SV6, it will now be saved as .park.
EXAMPLES
openrct2 ./my_park.sv6 Open a saved park.
openrct2 ./SnowyPark.sc6 Install and open a scenario.
openrct2 ./ShuttleLoop.td6 Install a track.
openrct2 https://example.org/files/ExamplePark.sv6 Download and open a saved park.
openrct2 host ./my_park.sv6 --port 11753 --headless Run a headless server for a saved park.
