Well okay you can run the tracks trough the base of the lighthouse and put the station in there, I wasn't sure what to do with all that empty space anyway.

Yet again. :(
EDIT: Well Minecraft.net sorted it's self out so I took some pictures of my progress with The Temple of Time. http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/5...0519153318.png http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/2...0519153341.png It's so far going well :) Also thanks Edd for fixing my door. :tard: |
Crash, is the following Friday better for you? Is said Friday worse for anyone else?
EDIT: Also, someone has, since yesterday, stolen a stretch of track between The End Station towards Cathedral Station. |
Ah. Whoops. That may have been me - I built a retractable bridge to replace the one that was demolished between the enderman and the cathedral - Guess some water leaked into the tunnel, washed away the track, then I sealed the hole, didn't notice, and the track despawned.
At least the mystery is solved though. It's fixed now. But yeah you can now walk between the enderman and the cathedral without having to wade, just be sure the retract the bridge after you cross. Also Crashpunk your temple looks good. |
Oh, you're actually building the track underwater, Splat? Nice, I thought you would go above the water. I approve :p

But... 'yet again'?
In other news, I have begun construction of an underwater tunnel between Ma'Spa and Havoc's lighthouse/the stronghold. I need tons of sand. Thanks Wil! Also, 8 stacks of the dirt currently in the tunnel came from Havoc's tower and will be returned as soon as possible have been returned. Edd, thanks for your advice about method; it's made it much easier than it otherwise would have been. Not sure whether to fill in the floor with stone or glass... |
Sorry for double-post.
Ma'Spa West Line now reaches Lighthouse Station. Supports without tracks (yet) reach Outpost Station. Supports nearly reach the Longhouse of the Dragonslayers. Need to build a station there. Also, need more iron. Dripik and I (mostly dripik) have built a tunnel down to the stronghold but haven't entered yet. The stronghold should remain sealed until our raid day, unless we arrange a date to search the stronghold first. Theoretically, it might be worth getting the loot there and taking care of the silverfish spawner before we head into the End. Thoughts? |
What's the policy on harvesting cracked and mossy stone bricks?
|
Do it after the raid, test every block by punching it with a fist first (silverfish blocks crumble like dirt, so you can quickly tell if a block is safe)... As for how many, I guess let's see how big the stronghold is first.
It might be worth people taking a chest and sign down too, so they can store spoils from the stronghold before venturing into the End. |
Given the rarity of the stronghold, maybe we should mine the interesting blocks as a group effort and apportion them between whoever wants them. I know we have the bank, but me and Nikki were disappointed when we got to the old stronghold to see nothing of interest.
|
It's depending on how big the strongehold is really. I don't mind having 20-30 blocks. But if it's big enough, maybe a stack each?
|
That sounds like a good idea. See, why didn't you suggest that in the first place?
|
As a group effort, we could swap out the cracked and mossy blocks with ordinary stone bricks. That way we get to preserve the stronghold in some fashion - Although it may not be worth it considering strongholds spawn in every world now, and who's going to go back there after we finish with the ender dragon?
|
You never know - someone might get the idea and turn that place into an underground science facility...
|
I thought of that once, then I actually saw one and saw how it intersected a cavern every 15 metres. Plus, do you really want silverfish eating your underground lair?
|
They can be your lab rats.

I meant all this AFTER we clear it of the silverfish and collecting all the blocks we want from there. |
Are you going to recreate Black Mesa? Including zombies? Awesome idea.

Silverfish come out of special stone brick/smooth stone/cobble silverfish blocks. When attacked, silverfish call other nearby silverfish to come out of their blocks. When no player is within a short distance, silverfish enter normal stone brick/smooth stone/cobble blocks, converting them to silverfish blocks, and effectively destroying - or leading to the destruction of - the new blocks.
Crushing them with gravel/sand, explosions from TNT and creepers and setting them on fire stop them calling other silverfish. Explosions are the only way to destroy a silverfish block without summoning its inhabitant. Also, they can't be found in mossy or cracked stone blocks, but they can re-enter these blocks, converting them to the appearance of normal stone brick blocks. Pest control will be... difficult, I fear. I've done my homework! :p |
I used to make these really cool water fountains... Wait wrong thread.
Although it would be good in server with permission of course. |
Do you know what people get when they keep asking for something?
|
No.

Holy shit, I posted in the past. That's awesome.
