Description

Operating System

OpenRCT2 build

OpenRCT2, v0.3.5.1 (e4af63d on develop) provided by GitHub

Describe the issue

In Oasis, I experience this problem that guests(staff as well) cannot pass the desert area in the middle to reach the oasis that they do not use the underground passage. I have tried different methods. Apart from the existing underground path, I also tried the overhead bridge, or turning the grids with the underground path to "owned land " grid. Either of them work out.

Attached please also find the saved park at the bottom.

I realize the same situation in another scenario. In Okinawa Coast, I built some new rides inside the cliff which is within the "construction right" area. Some guests have problem with path finding and wandering on the path at the left bottom part of the attached screen capture.

Area(s) with issue?

Compare guest and staff movement through construction-right areas with the screenshots and reported path alternatives. Done means affected guests and staff can navigate these areas without requiring an underground passage or becoming stuck.
