    I'll plan a fresh, original twister (south of the lake at y≈80+, avoiding tiles 68-85/55-75) and build in chunks, verifying state as I go. Starting at (40,80) heading +x.

    The last corkscrew placement collided with my own track (it snaked east into the U-turn). I'll undo back to a clean westbound position and redesign the return leg.

    Undo is glitchy on the corkscrew piece, but I can work forward from here: I'm at (76,88) heading east. A corkscrew pair will turn me back west for the return leg.

    This build is WAY too intense (16.9) — 11 inversions + unbanked high-speed turns nuked the excitement. I'll demolish and rebuild a moderate design: big lift, 4 inversions, banked/hills return, brakes before station.
