How to use No Limits 2, Tutorial 2, Adding a lift hill.

Hey it's Nick again.  I am going to continue with the second tutorial on how to build a NL2 coaster.  In this tutorial, I will show you how to make a lift hill.

To get started, you open No Limits 2 and click on editor.  Then go to File, Open.  Then you find the project you're working on.  Then make sure you have your coaster selected.
 Now to continue, you go to the Track tab and then go to Add Vertex.
 Then you place the vertex (the blue dots) where needed.
 Keep adding vertices to make up the lift hill.
 Now make sure your straight part of the lift hill has at least three vertices.  This way, you can select each one and then click on Make Straight. 
 Then add a Type Separator and go to Section Type, Lift
Double click on the lift hill segment to open the Lift Section Settings menu.  This is where you can set the lift hill speed, the type of lift system (chain or friction wheels) to use.
Always remember to File, Save.  During, and after working on it.  It makes it less likely to loose the information you have worked hard on.

That's it for the lift hill tutorial.  The next tutorial coming soon will talk about making banked turns, drops, hills and more of the software's tools and features.  Thanks for reading.
