Description
OS: Arch Linux
Version: 0.0.6
Commit/Build: 99a662f
In a park with limitation of high rides, one can bypass this limitation by lowering the ground after the ride has been built. I think this is not intended, but it was also possible in the original RCT2.
- Reproducible in RCT2 (vanilla)?
- Multiplayer?
Steps to reproduce:
- Start a new game in a park with height limitation (Asia - Japanese Coastal Reclaim/Okinawa Coast)
- Lower the ground under a track piece of Bullet Coaster 1 as far as possible
- Close Bullet Coaster 1 and delete that track piece
- Try to rebuild that piece, it is not possible

Research direction
Reproduce the issue using the listed Asia park and Bullet Coaster 1 steps, then trace the height-limit validation used when rebuilding track pieces after terrain changes. Done means a track piece that exceeds the park's height limitation cannot be rebuilt after lowering the ground, matching the intended rule rather than the original RCT2 behavior.
