Bugs
Cheats
One method of activating cheats in Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 is to rename Peeps. You do this by clicking on any guest, and replacing their name with one of these. This will immediately activate the cheat. The cheat will remain active even if the peep leaves the park.
| Peep Name | Effect |
|---|---|
| Andrew Gillett | No friction on all Rollercoasters |
| Andrew Thomas | Reduces friction on all rollercoasters. This helps with RCT1/2 track imports. Requires Update 1 |
| Atari | All guests are laughing |
| ATITech | All guests and staff move faster |
| Atomic | Larger explosions when rollercoasters crash |
| Chris Sawyer | Guests begin jumping for joy |
| David Braben | Unlimited launch and chainlift speeds. Requires Update 1 |
| D Lean | Allows use of the 'Flying Camera', very useful for video creation |
| FPS | Shows current FPS. Requires Update 1 |
| Frontier | Rides and Coasters will never break down |
| Ghost Town | No new peeps will enter your park. Occasionally re-renaming the peep does not disable this, so use with caution. Requires Update 1 |
| Guido Fawkes | Activates Advanced Fireworks Editor. You access it in the same menu as where you would select regular fireworks to add to your show |
| James Hunt | You are given a buggy-vehicle to explore your park. Delete as you would any regular coaster |
| Jonny Watts | Activates Peepcam - see the park from the peep's point of view |
| John D Rockefeller | Gives you $10,000. Can be repeated with multiple peeps |
| John Wardley | No height restriction on ride construction. Can become glitchy at extreme heights however |
| Jon Roach | Peeps will ride every non-coaster attraction |
| Katy Brayshaw | All peeps wave |
| Make me sick | All peeps become sick and immediately vomit |
| Melanie Warn | Peeps happiness increases |
| Mouse | All peeps stare at the ground |
| Sam Denney | Peeps will ride every coaster |
| Simon Foster | Will paint various paintings of your park |
| Isambard Kingdom Brunel | $1000 is taken from your account, but ALL staff are now fully trained. Do not use more than once per game, as it is a common occurrence that your game will freeze. As a result it will cost $350 to hire any new staff member, however they will also be fully trained. It is recommended that as many staff are hired before using this cheat, as it works out cheaper overall. |
