So please take your thumb out your arse and stop being such a dick.

 

Firstly, I didn’t abuse you, and despite you deserving an abusive retort, I won’t, as hopefully a mod will simply ban you for being abusive for zero reason. Carrying on the way you did just discredits you further

It's funny when they keep digging.

Does anyone have any new pictures or updates? Would love to know what's happening.

Thought I replied but it didn’t work... all exterior work is complete as far as I know and it seems like interior is done aswell. Guess it’s just sinking the ride or something that comes with this style of attraction. Last update was of the merchandise inside the shop.

Hey GCAF what's the difference between sinking and syncing?

[pushbutton]

I did wonder! I thought maybe a ride like this has to stand unused for a period after construction while it literally sinks into itself a bit (but it did seem odd)!

[Gold Coast Amusement Force]

Sorry that’s an error. I promise my spelling is at a higher standard than that!

[themagician]

The merch shop does look pretty good, I just hope the movability through it (if it’s how you exit the ride) works and doesn’t cause crowding issues

[Gold Coast Amusement Force]

So does it constitute as false advertising that the ride was originally supposed to open late 2018?

[themagician]

Well in that case, MW was false advertising for DC Rivals. They said October but it opened in September. And SW have announced many attractions and have been late or never been were constructed

Maybe GCAF is on the money... the reason why the ride is taking so long to open is because it’s sinking 😂

[Gold Coast Amusement Force]

Seems like it’s still a while away.

Installing Air Conditioning now this is ridiculous...

[Ash]

What a time to launch such an important asset to a struggling theme park, when all the kids go back to school and holidays are over haha

[Theme Park Enthusiast]

I don't understand why Ardent keep saying its only a few weeks away when its clearly not. They should be still using the words "coming soon" perhaps?

How long do you think it takes to install air conditioning? 🤔

What, in any of those photos, makes you think they're installing airconditioning?

[Theme Park Enthusiast]

Hi @AlexB

 

The pipe that is shown on the floor is used for ducted air conditioning 

[themagician]

@Theme Park Enthusiast that isn’t for aircon, that’s a vacuum pipe

[Theme Park Enthusiast]

Ok, so must be opening soon if they are vacuuming remaining dust etc

'LOL'

The clue here is its coloured yellow. its designed to be seen, which means it isn't planned to be installed into a roof.

It's also not a vacuum. The pipe is attached to a box inside the building, with the hose leading outside.

 

They aren't going to be vacuuming inside the building and just blowing it all outside now, are they?

What you're seeing is more likely either a portable air filter, or a portable air conditioner, both commonly used during construction for various reasons - however given the area wouldn't be overly hot, nor is it open to the public, its unlikely to be an air conditioner, so you'll likely find its some sort of air filter, being used to make the air more breathable. Considering the plastic sheeting, and the bare plasterboard here at present, its likely they're sheeting, sanding, etc, which generates a lot of dust, and probably under WH&S legislation, it requires air filtration systems.

Ignore

[Brad2912]

Guess the debate would be easily solved by what the hose/venting runs into once it gets outside? 

[Gold Coast Amusement Force]

It’s for getting out dust and other stuff. Looks like they were protecting painting because they had the walls covered in plastic protection.

It’s very close to opening now, soft opening for staff to ride is this weekend.
