I mapped the place, doesn't look that interesting.

Really?

I ended up mapping it as well, and gave copies to Kinzo and aru! Mine is set as map_0 (also have map_3, but that was accidental), meaning copies can be made (when crafting a map, hold down the SHIFT key to get a map_0 copy).

Put a sign up about it outside the communal house, but should've changed text....
If demand does grow, however, I'll really be needing the iron. I'm near out and am very close to relying on community chest for it!

It's standard fare for MC maps, okay, but I'd rather use the maps to find locations rather than see how interesting everything is.

Lousy screenshot. (note - large image. I play on a high resolution.)
Player marker is over the communal house, where I took said pic.
Map's centred at my base, which is conveniently under a surface lava basin (bright red dot in middle of map).
Lastly, a few of you are in areas not in map boundaries (looks at person who made dual cobblestone towers in the sea - cool structure though).

On an off-note, the overpass is now looped and for you eastern residents is connected on Kinzo's first tower. There are now 2 routes to the main stuff in the west (north and south), with maybe 1 more coming in a while (need to expand coverage first, and I'm near out of cobblestone - had to rely on 4 extra stacks Kinzo gave to finish it).

Made mine at main hub, southern extreme just covered DDR's place. Was a Map_01. Then with the rollback and stuff, don't think I have it anymore.
Anyway, do we have a nether hub?

DX7.EP · « **Reply #182 on:** June 07, 2011, 08:40:51 AM »

Not sure, since I didn't go in there yet. There was however a raiding party that went in there earlier yesterday (including DDR). May ask one of them.

Also I think the main hub was changed between now and then. DDR's place is rather well covered (going by the netherrack entrance and the fiery rails).

Bio · « **Reply #183 on:** June 07, 2011, 08:44:03 AM »

Well then, I'll build a bank and station at DDR's place then.

Got a fair old cobblestone supply and a monstrous ammount of string, but I'm pretty much out of just about any other useful resource.
Making an underground tree farm to try and be a bit more self sustaining, but my iron shortage is a problem.

I'll never be short of bows and rods again! bwahahaha

Also if anyone happens to find this leave it for me lol, Its got pretty awesome views and I built a base in there, put up some supplies inside and then lost the damn place after I got caught outside and had to use /home to escape the night, which put me back to my original base (and then i found the spider spawner anyway, so not like it was a loss, but still I'd kinda like get that place back too :V)

Bio · « **Reply #185 on:** June 07, 2011, 09:11:19 AM »

So, is anyone going to minerail the overpass? Worldlink?
Since I'm stocking up on rails and boosters now, might take a crack. Problem is that I don't have enough booster tracks.
And DDR doesn't need that many boosters on the track, its three from 0-8m/s and 1 for every 42.
If there aren't any objections i'll just take some then? And fix it if there is a huge problem.

E: Also, I run the farming business.
100% organic as well.

I'll try to find it and get it connected nearby as said in-game.

Minerailing overpass? Go for it! I have a bit of extra gold that can be used.

Nice farms BTW. Puts my small subsistence farm to shame.

Hello Terry,

Unfortunately, there is a bug with the editor that clears any file with a '&'. We'll try to have it corrected as soon as possible. For now, you'll need to download any file with a '&', edit it, then upload it back. This included the Essentials config.yml file. I apologize for the inconvenience.

This bug had cleared your Essentials files, which caused it to be unable to load. I've reset your config file, so it should be loading now. Let me know if you're still having any issues.

-Bryan

Here's a pic of my finished Sea Fortress, not bad for all cobble and wood I think :V

If you sail west of my lighthouse it'll come into view shortly. At the entry level, inside the towers, there are hatches that lead down to a tunnel connecting the two, and a passage that leads into a cave I've partially explored. It opens up into some gigantic steep caves with running water, and I'm not touching them with a ten foot pole. Feel free to explore them and claim whatever you find down there.

Meanwhile I think I'll start preparing for a big project, gathering up smooth stone and such. Not sure what or where I want to build yet.

Ah, so that massive thing I found off-map was yours! Very nice!

Still doing that world-linking thing, though just walkways for now.

No more infinite cooked porkchops. Seems like creepers really hated me for about five minutes and decided to blow up my front door three times and the backyard once with the spawner right in the blast radius.

I'm probably going to go with a station based rail system.
That is, each place has one rail going to and from a main station. Which has as many platforms as I can put.
Oh yeah, does anyone have a map with all places built marked? Since I could clean up the overhead while I'm at it as well.

Molten · « **Reply #196 on:** June 08, 2011, 01:44:16 PM »

Yay, joined the server. All of the things everyone has built are awesome. Looking forward to building with you guys.

I have regional maps made and put some in the community chest (if there isn't. put down the recipe and hold SHIFT while clicking that new map.) However, not all areas are marked (I can easily identify mine, the community house, Skye's shrine, and a few other bits such as the cobblestone tower on sea (Stuffman's lighthouse?), Sakuya pixel art, and that mega-structure in the northeast).

I think the overpasses should stay as an alternate route at the very least. It's also cheaper and quicker to put in than rails, especially for those who are far away from the centre area or when there's an ore shortage.

Er, could someone make another map for me? I'll make the compass.

I'd like to but I'm too far away from the community area.

Just remember this for an already-made regional map:

I could give you one. Totally not like I took the other one by accident. Nope. Didn't happen at all. :derp:
Oh and the Nitori sprite's almost done. Should have it done by tomorrow.

pineyappled · « **Reply #201 on:** June 09, 2011, 04:45:02 AM »

Maybe we could make the overhead roads wider as well. It's hard to walk on it, and in some places it's like ten meters above the ground.

_{Also, I found out that the reason my laptop's been fucking up lately because it's more than 6% fragmented lololol}

Very good thinking! I'll let you guys do that. I'm busy trying to build a mega-tower in the sea (which will be connected by road too).

In a couple areas in the south it's more like 30m (IIRC 1 block in MC ~= 1m).

Now that I finished my new base (that flying thing in the air, which I'm going to outfit with arrow dispensers and cannons) I can finally start on the rail system.
So, do you guys want to keep the overpass and build the rail way next to it or put the rail over the overpass.
Because it pretty much sees whether I fence the sides or not (since you're not really going to get off mid ride for a minecart)

There's lots of flying things in the air though! (Skye's, several towers in the east and south, that northeast crazy structure, etc).
...oh wait I think I know which one it is (the little ship thing that isn't tethered at all, right?).

Well, since I was the primary builder of the overpass system I'll say keep it, expand it as aru suggested to maybe 3-4 blocks wide, and stick the rail track next to it. Walking is still useful at times :V

But do this for the most common areas (communal house, eastern and southern camps, DDR's, Skye's temple) first. For the rest of them I'll put down the basic overpass first (if needed - especially for the far east and on-sea bases) and see whether railway expansion is a good idea for those parts.

EDIT: Speaking of common areas, I noticed that quite a lot of you have bases in the snowy east. Unfortunately ATM the only accesses to overhead from there is between Kinzo's and Piney's as well as a tunnel near Molten's, and right now I'm focusing on mega-tower as well as alternate routes (the route to Jes' place is quite dangerous - too close to surface) and expansion to the south (particularly those water towers).
I'll have to leave it to you guys for now to determine what to do about it.

That "snowy east" was the previous spawn point before we got teleported randomly to DDR's burning house.

Don't forget the 28 skeletons, 14 spiders, and 53595 zombies!

As for projects:
Utilitarian: Expand overpass, make your route safer (spam those torches), start Bio's rail system.
Common: Go to sea, create mega-tower as a monument.
When in Rome: Colosseum remake for PVP. Or as a mob farm.
Just 'cause: Upside-down sprites.
DAYTONAAAAA: Remake Dinosaur Canyon from Daytona USA.

You could always help me build my thingy (actually, im building a cloud, and on it a house, and try to make it super safe.)

If anyone need gold, i so happen to have found some. The bad part however is that i haven't mined it. But if someone manages to find my place there should be a hole down a cliff where i have put a sign and some torches.
