Best Answer

While it is unlikely that anyone will be able to figure out the particular equation used to calculate the park rating, the following things all affect your park's rating (this list is from the Roller Coaster Tycoon Wiki:

  • Amount of Rides
  • Quality of Rides
  • Variety of Stalls
  • Amount of Stalls
  • Scenery
  • Vandalism
  • Cleanliness of Footpaths
  • Safety
  • Happiness of guests
  • Lost Guests
  • Prices for rides and stalls
