I created this guide as a addition to Cane’s work, his guide helped me out optimizing my rides tremendously. However, at the time he created his ride optimizer, he did not have the DLC rides. This guide adds in the DLC rides, based upon his optimizer app, and hours of me running different sequences.
Please check out Cane’s original guide here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1905163538 – [steamcommunity.com]
Each of these rides is based upon 100% scenery rating, and around 1 hour of testing different sequences to reduce time. Feel free to tweak around, as you might be able to find something better, but these have worked for me.
It is important to note, that my test were based upon efficiency, increasing prestige while reducing total duration, as such these rides do not exhibit the most visually appealing sequences.
Also, out of all the DLC rides, only one could not be tweaked in anyway, which was the Sky Temple, as such it has possible the worst rating out of any ride in the game, and takes up a tremendous amount of in game space.

* This is the Top ranked DLC ride, and even cracks the top 5 of the base rides. It is the biggest surprise of all my tests, coming in at a stellar duration and just under the golden 800 prestige. I was able to better do on this ride, what I tried with Ascendant, mainly due to the reduced height of Hyperjump. With a great capacity and small footprint this ride should find a place in any park.

E/F/N: 2.56/0.96/0.97
Sequence: High Spin .34/$19.30/$4.82
Rating: .34
Ticket Price: $19.30
Profit:$4.82
*This ride is absolutely the worst of the DLC, it only had 3 sequence options, with High giving the most prestige, but each option was a whopping 240 seconds. The only saving grace is that each ride can seat about 59 guests, so the que should empty quickly between sequences.
Swift Drifters

Sequence: SS, FS,FS,Spin
Rating: 7.40

* Not a fan of this ride, with low prestige and high duration’s. It can fill in at the beginning if you have no options, but there are better routes if you do.

Prestige: 566
Duration: 146.5
E/F/N: 3.19/2.42/2.26
Sequence: FL, FL, Loop, FL
