Well, it seems like the past couple of days the ride has not been working very well. Finally visited today. The park is indeed epic. Managed to get a virtual queue, but the ride barely opened and shut down for the rest of the day. Hope I have better luck tomorrow.

Tomorrow is two weeks until the Grand Opening and it doesn’t feel like they’ve made any significant progress with this ride. It’s going to be interesting to see what happens with much higher crowds.

If the individual seating sensors are causing so much trouble with people moving their feet or leaning over, they might have to alter those safety standards. I can't see guests 'not' moving their bodies or 'not' squirming' in their seats during a thrill ride. That's just not realistic.....Of course, that's 'if' that's the main issue with most ride shutdowns. Perhaps there's other issues.

It really does seem like an easy to fail safety system… due to crazy sensitivity.

I don't know how this went from having perfect back-to-back rides on Saturday night to... barely operational and soon closed altogether for a week.

I mean.. I see it. It is insanely intricate. I just hope they get it figured out soon because the park needs it to help disperse crowds (and I need everyone to experience its gloriousness).
