Yeah, figured it'd still be better than tunnels between the segments. Would be in a glass tube when done.

Okay, works for me.

I'm still kinda focusing on tekkit right now, but soon I'm gonna find a new project to work on, will help you with the second village when I've gotten healthier and more interested in minecraft again.

I'm hoping that X-Com goes on sale sometime in the next month or so lol.

Get well soon then.

I've also noticed it looks like we have 10 golems now, yet they still can't be assed dealing with the zombie sieges and just derp around on the other side of town.

Oh, they'll go to the other side of town, but only if you accidently hit a citizen while trying to kill zombies

So on the netherbrick front, am I right in thinking it's OK to mine from any nether fortresses, including claimed ones, as long as the mining is done well into the solid section, below the actual fortress part? Or should I use the map to go find an unclaimed one... I guess that might be more fun anyway.

If it's claimed I'd check with them, but there should be one about for mining anyway.

There's certainly at least one that's already been mined by various people and still has plenty of netherbrick left. This one here is (or was, at least initially) being used as a community source of netherbrick, see the windows near the bottom:
http://www.darkinnit.com/dakkamap/#/-78/64/-228/max/1/0

I don't know of any whole fortress that is "claimed" by a single person, most people just claim the blaze spawner or netherwart.

Or we use them as handy pre-made pathways.

But I wouldn't be sore at you as long as you kept to hollowing things out- try making rooms instead of just big hollow pillars, though- then they can be used in the future for something.

Yeah, just kind of hollow out a three high section, build a stair down, hollow out another three high section, and so on and so forth, making rooms that way.

Eventually we can turn that kind of thing in to a nether base or something.

My first attempt at using an energy link on a quarry did not go quite as planned

For those confused, look at the landmarks, then look beyond the reinforced glass to see where the quarry ACTUALLY started harvesting.

For those curious as to how I got all the resources, well... I obtained about a stack and a half of diamond nether ore, which resulted in a net of three stacks of diamonds. And that doesn't include the other ores that I got from the nether... damn, nether ores are just broken right now. Although they are at least dangerous if you don't prepare (which I always do) for them Yeah, I pretty much broke my SSP run by using nether ores, ah well :/ I have to use the nether for glowstone though, so it sucks :/

Blaah. Had to replace the crystal chests with diamond chests, because they were lagging my system :/ I mean I have plenty of diamonds from the nether, but even still, hate waste.

This is the most egregious griefing area.



I build a cobble bridge there so I could cross without having to jump around like an idiot trying to get out of the pit that was made. But what worthless piece of trash does something like that? That was obviously someone's construction (mine), and if you don't realize that from looking at it you're an idiot...

All signs from the investigation point to this being iLordNoob.

Wyrmalla and Shooms were also in the area on the same day (but were there before, not after and they have no netherbrick at the time).

iLordNoob, is it possible you took the netherbrick, but had run out of stonebrick to replace it, and forgot to go back and fill in the gap? Anyway, as you've apologised for the other netherbrick you removed and offered to help fix it, I'll let you off with a warning. I much prefer it when people can resolve their problems by talking to each other

....Yeah, I've ran out of cobblestone. ...Again. ^^'

Well, its not like you can just grab a pick and go down below your towers...

XD That would require me going to the End, enchanting a half dozen picks with efficiency, then using them all up in a couple of minutes.

Yeah, better just for me to see who's online at the time and trading them whatever poison they want.

Cause I'm such a skinflint when it comes to Cobble...



=/ Should stop getting distracted and finish that damn wall.

What a great time to post this, I've been thinking about doing a LARGE build on the server, I think this is the same one as my schematic

do you stockpile the reasorces first?

grab them as you go?

I mean that ship needs 100,000 stone, 33,000 Dark grey wool, 8,500 Slab blocks...

and it doesn't even have a full interior. (but I'll fill it more)

Mine's bigger (swings penis, as Mel would say).

Mine's Prettier, and longer

Mine gave me material as I built it.

Hmn, it would seem the bug I'm getting with glass not rendering isn't exactly what I thought it was. It is showing up, but when two glass blocks connect only the borders on the sides not touching display. ...Thus why my glass floors appear invisible. Odd, and a bit of a bother aestheticly, but I guess I'll live.

Depends on the texture pack, some packs connect textures.

Well I screwed up turned my lava into obsidian sad face :(

Probably still lava under a single layer I guess.

Wyrm if you need cobblestone you know where my chest full of stone is. I'm always up for a trade.

Who built this?

what did you do with the cobbelator 9000 that was already there?

This post is assuming I get white listed for the dakka server

I'm thinking of building a either a coast fortress or a treehouse around X489 Z1383. Its a finger of earth pointing out to the sea near a nether portal and a frankly lovely castle. Does anyone have designs in their mind for this land yet? Or can I go ahead once I'm white liste. I won't be mining too much underneath there, I'll try to restrict that to out under the sea, I imagine thats the best place for it, the least likely to hit another's tunnel.

Also, would it be poor form for me to hide in someone else's property during the night? Should I just carry the equipment to build a hut real quick or are sleepovers ok?

If you can find the place on the Server map you can link it here...
As long as someone lets you it's fine to stay the night in someone else's house that said there are a few public buildings on the server and i think there's a safe house at the spawn for people to use...

Ok if this link works, its the area I'm gunning for;

edit: hurrah pretty sure it works

Well the City of Ghost's railway is now up. Only two stations at the moment, one for the main section and a second for the industrial area though that's just a walled area with a train station in it at the moment.

Ok the dakka server disconnected me, and when I tried to log back on it looked like I was falling off the edge of the world or something, I can see a wee yellow dot fading away above me...help?

I'm just going to leave it for a while and hopefully it'll sort itself out...

It's just a little lag, keep trying and eventually it'll work... usually at least...

Or just fall until the server backs up...
