How do you use the shift key in Roller Coaster Tycoon 3?

In Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, the Shift key is used to facilitate the building process. Holding down the Shift key while placing rides, paths, or scenery allows you to create multiple items in a row without having to select each item again. This makes it easier to construct long paths or duplicate ride types efficiently. Additionally, you can use it to fine-tune the placement of objects for better alignment.
