The MafiaScum Minecraft Thread - AllTheMods 9!!! - NEW Vanilla?

Possibly. The stone floor would probably help too.

[jmj3000]

A section of the stairs leading up from the skeleton grinder thing has been messed with also. I also don't know how high a creeper explosion can go, but it destroyed about 16 - 20 blocks of glass, about 6 blocks high.

Can I get whitelisted?

Name is Vezok.

Rain is pretty cool. If anyone has spare gray or light gray wool, it would be much appreciated.

[Chevre]

A few things:

1. I was mining sand, and I neared a small sandstone WIP with a bed inside. I backed off my mining from there, so I hope I didn't ruin the scenery.

2. I discovered a zombie spawner near my house today. Feel free to make it all trappy and stuff; I'll be on sporadically throughout the day so if you get on I'll tell you the approx. coords.

3. machinimas Top 5 Creations today was Mazes, so I'm inspired to make one.

Dude on a server I used to play on made a maze. He had the entire area made destruction-proof, and the floor was made out of redstone ore blocks. there were two levels to it, and you fell from the first floor to the second, which led to the exit that was otherwise hidden by trees and an iron door.

shit was cool.

[Chevre]

super neat

[Mute]

Wow... the part in the nether was truly awesome.

1. That was an old place I was screwing around with, it's abandoned after I died due to zombie spawning in my bed... and you can do whatever you want with it :B

[Chevre]

OK, It's kind of neat actually. I might turn it into some sort of ruins or something.

[Claus]

Ruins are always good.

[Claus]

Ok, I have finished the MME/MSTA Tunnel, and now I´m working on the MSTA/0,0 tunnel and the MSTA/Grahje Tunnel

If you want any other railway terminal points, just post here.

Also, I have set up a donation box at the entrance of the MSTA. While I have a lot of iron, the new booster packs require a lot of gold, so any gold donations are welcome. I need about 1 gold bar for every 8 tracks (so if the distance between your home and the MSTA is about 1000 squares, I will need about 125 gold bars to connect both)

[Chevre]

A few questions:

1) What level are you working at?
2) How big a space do you need at the ending terminals?

Depending on my Easter festivities, I can build something for you.

[Mute]

There's now two caves in this mountain mine I've got that I am too chickenshit to explore (mostly due to lack of torches and inability to find any damn coal), and there's still that spider spawned I've blocked off and lit up at the end of the mine system that I have no clue how to turn into a spawn trapper.

Claus where exactly around MME's house does the station come out to?

[Claus]

Chevre: I'm building at the depth y=48.6. With the boosters, the terminal does not need to be very big: a 5 L x 2 W x 3 H space for the rails + the platform for the people is sufficient. Feel free to make it bigger.

Mute: Right now the station comes right under MMEs house. It would not be hard at all to extend the rail to go to your place as well, just give me the coordinates for the terminus.

[Mute]

I'd have to build a proper house for that, though. Right now, the place I call my house is a floating tower with an underwater structure that contains a glass-encased farm, a walkway that leads to an island that I'll try to build a proper house at, and the tower itself which is a massive WIP.

[bv310]

I'll take responsibility for a nice shrine at 0,0 leading down to the station. Got a ton of Moss Stone I've wanted to use, and it seems like a good excuse to build a ziggurat/step pyramid.

[Claus]

Great! I built a very small temporary wooden hut over 0,0. But a moss stone shrine will look much better!
Feel free to improve the station underground as well!

Linking rails with the new powered rail tiles is the easiest thing ever. The following lines are already operational:
MSTA - 0,0 station
0,0 station - Joth Chapman´s ziggurat. (Chevre, feel free to readjust the rail lines that I placed inside your room)
MSTA - MME´s continent.

By the way, I miscalculated the ammount of gold needed. 1 powered rail per 26 normal rails, + 4 powered rails for the beginning/end of line. 6 gold bars create 6 powered rails.

[Claus]

Also, my current design for beginning/end points has a problem: if there is a car at the end of the line when you arrive, you will be send back. There is a somewhat easy way to prevent this, but I´m kinda sleepy now, so I will implement that later. For now, if you use the train, PLEASE remember to take your cart off the track after leaving it. (BYOC and take your cart with you).

[Mute]

Hmm...
I know someone said it earlier, but I think I might seriously work on making a maze somewhere in the world if I get the gumption to do it. While I was out today I drew out some ideas and a few practice layouts (:total lie, I just drew out one and made it have several branches out on the first layer god I am pathetic:) while killing time waiting for dinner. This'd work for me too, cuz I need some damn coal and hopefully by doing this I might find some. =/


BTW: claus what are you using to stop the carts at the end of the tracks?

[Claus]

If you need coal, there are plenty that I did not bother to mine while digging the train tunnels.

As for the cart stop, an unpowered booster track works as a break, so I`m using a setup like this:

Block - powered rail - rail - powered rail - powered rail - powered rail

Where the first powered rail is activated by a button, and the following three rails are always active.

[Mute]

Hmm...
All that redstone stuff.. Never understood it. All I ever did in SSP is leave a space at the end of the track clear so the cart falls and dies on it's own, or toss a soulsand block to stop the cart.

[Claus]

There is actually very little redstone stuff involved in the current stations. If we are on together next time, I can explain it to you in loco.

[My Milked Eek]

Mute,
feel free to take a stack of coal from my storage room.
And I think that, with a minor turn somewhere, the tracks could end under your tower. Just provide coords where you want your terminal and I'll dig towards it.


And Claus and I found a skellie dungeon in a cave along the tracks towards my house. Exact coords of the spawner are:
x = 321
y = 50
z = -63

Feel free to turn it into a grinder/tourist attraction/whatever.

[Chevre]

More things:

The birdcage is FINISHED! I don't know exact coordinates, but it's right behind my house which is at 0, 200. If you get there, you really can't miss it.

I finished a minor project I call the ruins of Brandi, it's at 110, 364 IIRC. It's her half-finished sandstone house, which I converted into a ruined house and mixed up the chests a bit. Stop by if you're in the neighborhood, I guess?

Next project for me is a maze. Location is unknown.

EDIT: After that, I'll probably recreate my art gallery from the old server.
