Headscratchers / RollerCoaster Tycoon

• Why do the same VIPs keep visiting every park? And why would a baseball player be called 'Joe Sluggerball' anyway? And visit theme parks in his baseball outfit and while carrying his bat? And why exactly does a large theme park have to leap through arbitrary hoops for one random celebrity guest?
  • Maybe they're hoping for an endorsement deal?
  • Maybe the park organized a "meet and greet" with him for the guests so he had to wear his uniform. "Meet baseball legend Joe Sluggerball at the park, get a picture, get an autograph! One day only!"
• Coaster cars exploding when they crash? Just... Why?
  • Rule of Cool combined with Nightmare Fuel. Take. Care. Of. Your. Coasters.
• Renaming a guest as "Mr. Bean" makes them drive the go-karts slowly. Yet in the TV series Mr Bean drives his Mini pretty fast and recklesslessly (even his actor is reckless, considering he trashed a certain, center-seated hypercar three different times and had it repaired). He certainly ain't slow.
  • Intentional Ironic Name / Ironic Nickname perhaps?
• How can a simple spiral slide break down?
  • Safety Cut-Out: Someone cut out the safety part of the slide cloth the peeps slide down on, and the Mechanic has to replace the cloth.
  • A more realistic idea is that there's someone at the top of the tower that makes sure younger riders get on the mat and they might close down the ride for safety if something like a support is starting to break or other structural issue.
• Why would the excitement of Go-Karts go down if they go underground/indoors?
  • If the karts aren't equipped with headlights and taillights, and/or there are no lights in the tunnels, (both of which seem to be the case) the drivers can't see where they're going or see where other karts are, making accidents more likely.
