What are we calling spawn, other than "spawn"?

Spawnville? Spawnborough? SpawnCity?

tempted to do an 19th century factory complex

I'm gonna become a robber baron and build railways and canals and exploit the proletariat

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;51853575]tempted to do an 19th century factory complex[/QUOTE]

hmm thats similar to an idea I have.

Making a late 19th century/dishonoured/edwardian town centred round a witch farm the loot from the witchfarm (and other automated stuff) would be piped to different shops.
Witchfarm would be disguised either as a town hall type building or a mill. With streets round round it or branching off.
Currently on hold while I get enough melons to block out the witch farm so I know roughly how big the road surrounding it can to be.

Concepts/ideas:
A terraced street inspired by diagon ally from harry potter
An inn type building (tudor style pub surrounded by more modern edwardian buildings)
An alchemist "selling" powders, vials etc very dingy small shop using coloured clay as brass alembics
A botanist centered around a greenhouse with every plant in the game.
Butcher selling all types of meats + rotten flesh from a mob grinder
Warehouse to act as a router/item sorter for the shops
Factory holding melon+pumpkin+chicken+sheep farm
Train station for when the server gets more trains
Library (probably a fancy edwardian building)
Sewer/subway to act as a way to route items around the place - inaccessible to public unless they get nosey. Probably have metal trap doors in the street which can be accessed if you bring a lever.
Dockland area
Flooded area similar to venice
Residential streets for people to make homes/embassies/places to store stuff they get from the machines and shops.
Either a big mill in centre or a town hall based off of manchester town hall or the houses of parliament. If the witch farm is the mill then the town hall will probably be a library.

Beauty of having all the stuff round the witch farm is while people afk collect wool or cobble, the witch farm will be pumping out cool stuff

Then for shits and gigs if I ever manage to finish that I'll make a factory based off of battersea powerplant and fill it with all the different types of animals. Probably be a separate project made closer to spawn though.

While I've been afking for melons on the server I've been playing in singleplayer trying to get designs sorted, I can share that save if youre/anyone is interested.

There seems to be two oceans people are migrating around, with a lot of river networks in between. I would say there is a lot of potential for canals.

I'd be willing to go into business on a railroad with you, so long as we can be a huge corporation

Are the coal powered minecarts still shitty? would be really cool to use them somehow but from memory they can't go up hills and they run outta fuel in a minute or so.

[editline]21st February 2017[/editline]

From reading the wiki they stop after going round a bend unless they're pulling another cart in which case they send the cart they were pulling back the direction it came from and then carries on without its cargo. Is this a deliberate troll? It seems totally useless.

Powered minecarts are still absolute ass, from my memory you can't get in them, they push you a helluva lot slower than powered rails do, and they consume fuel like a beeyotch

I wasn't aware you could attach carts to them now.

[EmperorScorpious]

Not sure why anyone would want to use powered carts when pushing yourself is a thing now.

Also I would like to request that any rail lines to my area be postponed until I can find a proper place for them.

Also Also maybe consider a subway? May take longer to build, but it could potentially be safer and not hinder the landscape too much.

Another note, how far can one travel via elytra? Would it be possible to build a very, very tall skyscraper in spawn to use as a jump off point and potentially reach most of the settlements around the map? I'm not saying this for efficient travel, but for fun travel.

You can use fireworks to boost the elytra... so indefinitely. Or at least till new map generation lags you sufficiently to kill you.

Shame about the powered minecarts being utter junk, its like they've been abandoned.

I use subways in large areas to limit impact on the area like you said, but I like using elevated railways to give people an overview of the land.

Maybe a building in spawn can be dedicated to rail/general project planning. Each extension to the network having a booth with discussion, where is it between, whos working on it, estimated time frame, distance and caveats like "only 1 rail line" or "must be underground".

If it were for general work then people could come in see what projects are happening and where and see who to contact for more info.

[EmperorScorpious]

A railroad toward me would be preferably underground.

[Loriborn]

FP fucked up my reply and I'm too lazy to fix.

[SonicWind]

Sheesh, this place is getting packed. Glad I got in on this at the ground level.

Whats the price per stack of clay brick blocks for the different payment methods

[Sobotnik]

[QUOTE=mdeceiver79;51856148]Whats the price per stack of clay brick blocks for the different payment methods[/QUOTE]

8:1 clay brick blocks per iron bar?
64:1 clay brick blocks per diamond?
(same rate for hardened clay)

not too terribly sure on prices rn since minecraft is a place where markets are so volatile and thin that prices vary massively

May I sign up? Same name as here, Otterman.

We currently have 9 people online, this is great
Also the hotel business is booming

[Plattack]

Had a breakthrough on my man-made cave system earlier. Broke into an actual cave and found a spider spawner. I haven't felt this excited about minecraft since I played back in beta.
