They were sand bag testing a while back, I haven't seen any water dummies used, think they just did a few days of sand bags
Thanks, that is what I vaguely recall.

Its not about physically having the vehicles handle the weight but the battery capacity dealing with a full load of riders. There will be more power draw due to increased torques required by the motors. Ship yard vehicles are all diesel I believe.That kind of testing was already done through research before being on site I would be almost sure of it. These things are typically carrying around tons of weight all day in the elements of a shipyard. This is almost light work if you take out the I am presuming hydrolic platforms similar in theory to the Hollywood 360 ones.
Ugh.. three tone splash stonework is back.
well they are trying to rush to open it cause people are getting antsy
Hm. I see them as rust stains due to any iron in the stone. Rust tends to stain downward across multiple stonework. Oh well!
If there's a metal rod of some sort, yes, but even then it is very directional and path-of-least-resistance. As for iron oxidizing within the strata, it looks like stripes across the individual stone.
A VERY good sign.
Each ride system is a little different, so just how much can be moved or how it is moved varies, but people walking around inside of the ride (but outside the ride envelope) is pretty common too.
8th Wonder Expeditions stops for no oneProblem was early in testing, the vehicle had no sensors and made little noise. When they were still testing only inside the building, a few people almost got run over and had to jet out of it's way. Seems impossible I know, but there were no video monitors back then... nothing had been installed.
Yes.. the safety systems (intrusion mats, beams, etc..) can be disabled and vehicles can be moved around manually.
It's actually how/when most damage to ride systems occurs.
