==============================================================================
Copyright 2002, Oblivion
All Rights Reserved.

This trainer was designed for Roller Coaster Tycoon's Loopy Landscapes add on pack.

Tested On UK, US, German, and Dutch Loopy Landscapes Versions 1.20.012 and 1.20.013.
Also tested on UK Added Attractions.

IMPORTANT INFO:
===============
1) The trainer is a small menu bar that sits in the top right hand corner of your screen.
To use the trainer you will need to ALT+TAB to it, or run the game in windowed mode.

2) Some of the commands make take several seconds to excecute; you can ALT+TAB back to RCT and continue playing whilst the trainer makes its changes.

3) Save your game regularly, especially before using any untested features. Always keep a backup of your game, i.e., one that you have not used the trainer on.

4) It is advisable to exit the trainer before you exit the game. If you have many timers running and you exit the game before the trainer it may get stuck; this is NOT harmful to your PC. After about 20 seconds the trainer should finally quit, if it does not you will have to End Task it through the Task Manager. 

5) Do not use the Stack Scenery Command to stack rides as this will cause the game to crash.
Also, check that the stacked item(s) can safely be removed before you save the game.

6) Sometimes the Trainer may not initialize properly, if this happens none of the commands will work. Simply restart both RCT and the trainer.

7) Certain windows deskptop themes with large fonts may make some of the items on the menu bar not visible. Simply drag the side of the trainer window to resize it until the Help menu is visable.  

INSTALLATION:
=============
1) Unzip the file to a directory of your choice.
2) Create a shortcut on your desktop.
3) Make sure you have installed the Drexler Patch (http://www.strategyplanet.com/rctuk/rctpatch) before running the trainer. The trainer will cause the game to lock-up and crash otherwise.

RUNNING:
========
1) Start RCT first and open a game or scenario.
2) ALT+TAB to your desktop and click on the Trainer Icon.
3) Wait for the trainer to initialize before using any features. An initialization message should appear in the RCT message window once the trainer has initialized.
4) To use the trainer functions, ALT+TAB between the Trainer and RCT.
5) Quit the trainer BEFORE quitting RCT.
6) Depending on which cheats you have used, it may be necessary to restart RCT before opening a new game/scenario. This is only to prevent the cheats running into the next game.

GETTING HELP:
=============
1) The Help file briefly explains most of the features of the trainer.
2) Keep checking the website for updates.
3) Read the online Tutorials on the website for help with some features.

TRAPPER ERRORS:
===============
The game contains a lot of cheat detection code. Basically, the game makes checks to see that you do not have too much money, too much land, etc. and if it thinks you have cheated, it will display a "Trapper Error" message, and the game will quit.

The patch should reduce the frequency of these errors, and more than likely eliminate them all together. However, it is recommended that you save your game regularly to avoid losing large amounts of work if you get an error.

A Trapper Error will NOT cause any harm to your PC or to RCT, it is just inconvenient and means you will have to restart the game, and will lose any unsaved work. If one particular feature always seems to cause an error, then stop using it.
