5 minute queue time according to the app so is it open now?
Maybe.
*edit*
looks like we have team member testing through Sunday, all day.

Whoa, you’re right!!
Well, I guess one of two possibilities then. Either it’s working so well it may open publicly tomorrow. Or, it’s working so poorly they need more time to fix issues.

So, knowing our luck, it is open tomorrow.I’m leaning toward the latter….

Their default is "STOP" so there is some truth to thatThis is purely speculation on my part, but given the fact that they are no longer accepting human test dummies, that might mean they have to change something in the program. Once you verify the changes you made are safe for humans, then you can invite them back to continue testing.
And this is just my guess based on all the stuff I see on social media about the ride faulting so much that they had to manually remove the riders. Modern ride systems have so many safety features that sometimes they decide to just not let the ride work at all. I mean, a ride that just sits there is safe, right?
I'm still wondering if they got an updated launch from the old Premiere LIM system
Sigh, and I am off tomorrow so was planning to go and ride it lolTeam member ride testing has ended for the weekend.
Hang out in front looking hungry like a guest hoping for a bone. Live on the other side for a daySigh, and I am off tomorrow so was planning to go and ride it lol
When does this start to fall into blunder territory? We now know that ride hasn't had any major visual/storyline changes, and that's totally fine, but what are you doing with 8 months of time to rework an already existing ride's system? And now it's starting to feel like it won't be ready for HHN?
They upgraded the projections during the bug scene and turntable, added new lighting to the launch, and repaired the AAs. But the majority of the work was a total brain transplant, from the automatic gates to the last break run. Computers, sensors, and the launch were replaced and now they're still ironing out programming bugs.
In order not to be seen as moving the goal posts I'll say that they were likely aiming for completing this by Labor Day weekend or sooner. So if this isn't ready by HHN (which is Labor Day weekend oh my god it's so soon) then I think they'd miss their "goal". And if they miss ACTUAL late summer (late sept) then I'd say it's a debacle.
