A Mini FeeCo (though I might grab more space)...
Building this station is gonna take more time, resources and effort than all the track
Right, Edd, I challenge you (or anyone else) to build
this in wool and post a screenshot here. With or without the words, though if you have the words change them to 'Ma'Spa Depot'.
As small as it can be feasibly made please.
All I have to go on is that one blurry external shot... (or I could get on AE and screenshot it myself).
EDIT: Fortunately the game CD was to hand. Now I wish I hadn't spent part of yesterday levelling the inside of that cliff.
EDIT2: Rough mockup of an overhead shot of FeeCo, not including the sign on top.
The bits on the top, bottom and sides are where the tracks enter/exit and there are iron girders running over the corners and across the whole building (gonna need a ton of iron bars, and maybe a ton of obsidian). The actual body of the building appears to be circular rather than square, but circles are hard in minecraft [/whiny].
I'm gonna try things out in Single Player, but would people mind, in the interest of getting this station built so I can get on with the train lines, if I make it in creative on the server? I'm seeing heavy use of obsidian and nether fence to get the colours right, not to mention iron and wool, and it'd take me the rest of the month to gather what I'll need (not including in this calculation the inherent shortness of the month in question). (Sorry, the whiny tag should have ended here.)
EDIT3: I got the girders all wrong
I'm gonna go have dinner and then work on this in Single Player. Hopefully I'll have some screenshots later tonight.
