Then Answer:

How do you apply that formula to make 3D elements, such as Cobra Rolls, or Corckscrews, or 45 degree inclined loops?

I know someone has to know this...

One word...MATH...its not that hard if you sit down with a notepad and paper and use the coordinates on the editor window.

I know how to make the perfect circle with it, that is simple...

I was just wandering what you had to add to the problem to make 3d elements such as helixes and cobra rolls, and etc.

That all depends on a few factors such as "in speed", "out speed", flowing G's, height, velocity, friction, and coaster type..

for example...a cobra roll..no problem..but if you make it too small and you are going too fast..it will be very extreme and thus not a sucessfull coaster..

make sense?

um, not really, but what I am looking for, is what do I add to the problem that is provided in the link that I provided. That is to say, what do I add to the provided (by the link) problem to perfect something circular that is 3d; such as a helix, or the like?

make sense?
