    Latest lava art fun:

    attachment.php?attachmentid=146101&stc=1&d=1296611081

    The "window" in the lava chimney was the hardest part. Due to a slight... mistake, the entire inside flooded with lava. It took 4 hours to go down half way, so by tomorrow, it should be okay :pac:

    This is my plan. The red is a road that will be created through the existing mountain. It will be small, only about five blocks wide, but it will be flat and straight. This road leads to a tower which will have several floors. Its gonna take weeks, if not longer to build and I'd be grateful of any help that people can offer, but I am willing to do it myself. I don't mind the long haul projects.

    Depending on how I get on the road might be a tunnel.

    Thats why I'm only putting a road in. I don't want to block anyone else or impair their views. The road will just be to access the other side of the mountain. I might even make it less obvious by making it a tunnel. I haven't started this yet so I'll keep your place in mind when I do.

    Well just a side of mountain atleast, so i could put some tower on top.

    As for the road, its cool. Even good i geuss as we will have conection to village, ill try to make road from my shed to main village and mall. So we cam connected.

    As for that mountain i just wanted some space from mountain down to water, as i cant get spot infront of me amymore of tje castles extenction plan. But if someone whanrs to use part of that mountain, then feel free, just. Leave me some space to extend my wall. :)

    As i said before, i dont expectuch of privilage, but if we know about each ather plans it will make less accuard situations in future.

    Less drama more win. ;)

    Is it possible for me to run Cartographer on the server map myself, or does it have to be an admin doing it (or just Tallon?). It'd be cool if there was a regular map that automatically updates that we could look at. Or is that resource-heavy-unachievable?

    you have to have the server file of the world itself to do it.

    the map is massive as people have been wandering really far away from the village so when it does render it can take up to 45 mintues (not 100% but close enough)

    I don't mind doing it every few days.

    My cliff walkway is almost done :) Got an awesomeface building carved into the cliffface. The new pathway runs past dooley's castle and up the mountainside, there's some nice areas there, and some old birchwood trees. Was thinking of turning into a swamp, but nyeh, if anyone fancies building there, do it!

    Out of curiosity, how big is the server file of the world?

    It's only about 40mb, but theres over 12,000 files. Downloading them off the Unix VPS means every file is verified before it can be downloaded. Takes a while :o

    Hrm. Would you mind if I expanded it, to include a river in it, to allow someone use a boat?

    146137.jpg

    The red lines will be canals, the green lines will be small, but elaborate entrances through the wall. Will look into some sort of door system for boats -.-

    Well I'm quiet liking the idea of a tunnel, so maybe a canal with a walkway either side of it? How wide would you want the river? and what height would the boats be?

    Here is my proposed plan of the building.
    http://www.mediafire.com/?dztl3nuedwjfosh
    It'l be a simple design. 40x40overall with Cobblestone outerleaf. Its primarily a tower but every 8 locks high there will be a floor. The walls will be 4 wide with the inside of it being hollow (2 wide). In the four corners there will be turret towers and inside these the walk way will raise a quarter of a level (2 blocks). This will mean to go up a level every time you must walk all the way around the building.

    boats that we can travel in are half a block high and when we sit in themit 1 and a half blocks high. you need at least 3 blocks between the water and the ceiling or else you might get stuck in the roof and die.

    max height is 64 from water level.

    Boats are standard height, one block out of the water, and has a width of two blocks. I think I'll do a 3 block wide canal, and a two block wide walkway next to it. Will pop a few candles along it, or something...

    Destroy? Nay. Would be a small opening at the bottom.

    HERE is my suggested route for the canal, and the site for the tower. it'll take a decent bit of mining in preparation but hopefully it will work out. The hardest part will be figuring out where we are when we are in then tunnel. Making that turn at the right stage will be hard done.

    That's fairly ambitious! Good idea though. Again, I recommend you use an external program called MinecraftAM, it gives you a realtime pinpoint location of your whereabouts, and what level you're on, whats above and below etc
