Music Synchronized Roller Coaster (Front Seat POV)

I've synchronized Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture to the full length of a Roller Coaster. The coaster twists and turns with the music, as well as triggering special effects that match the beat. The sound of the cannons are coming from the music, not the roller coaster (Tchaikovsky was a madlad). This was a challenging project because the rides in Planet Coaster do not always run at the same speed. I found that the timing changed based on changes to my CPU load or graphics settings. In total, I spent over 90 hours making this video.
If you looks closely at the end, you'll see I included all my patrons on signs attached to the coaster.
If you'd like to explore the coaster and try it out for yourself, I've included the final map save below.
Thanks everyone!

This is my favorite piece of classical music, and I'm a big roller-coaster nerd. Absolutely amazing. <3
