    Will do but it will have probably have to wait until I get home as I am at work and most things are blocked here but I will see if I can get something sorted sooner, cheers

    Edit - looks like I can access what I need

    And after putting up the pic below I have suddenly realised that the apartments might be the building on the left side of the pic :duh: in which case the trainline probably wouldn't affect my Lakeside house

    [​IMG]

    The red lines are the direction that my balconies face - if you want to run between my house and the apartments just let me know and I will put the balcony on that side over to the other side (it is a loft balcony so can be moved without much trouble)

    The red circle is where I was planning a second build but any balconies will look out over the water towards JR and MrsF new house so if the line runs above the path that is already there I don't have any issues with it as I was planning a garden at the front of the house and building the house more towards the water anyway

    The purple line there runs over the path there. I'm not entirely sure how I'm going to carry on the red line, mind.

    No worries, the purple line is fine running above that path, I will just make sure that any trees I plant at that end of the garden don't interfere with the train line

    As for the red line, I would have thought you would run it 'behind' my house if you needed to be anywhere near? If so, that isn't a problem

    #'s, pcclan, and i wondered the same thing yesterday. so we headed out that way to check it out and there was...nothing. i think it was a spot that somehow noone had gotten close enough for the world to generate terrain there. theres nothing but grass and trees now.

    on a side note, J is working on battleships just east of that spot...i suggest everyone have a stop by and see just how epic it will be :jawdrop:

    Is it possible an admin could temporarily turn off spawn protection or let me bypass it somehow? It's in the way of the railway I'm trying to build.

    Thanks in advance.

    A couple of things:

    I second the opinion of having a downtown railway-ring, that has stations where you can swich to the railways out to the districts.

    The exploring down south (behind the gigantic bridge is done by me, I was hoping for snow and ned-generated land, but realise now that I went far to long. Sorry!

    Awsome christmas-tree and snow-man!

    And I liked the effect the leaning tower had on the carto, looks wrong geometrically.. Nice work!

    Yeah, I walked over there myself after posting. All I found was a huge forrest fire there. Then I went afk and found myself with a sore behind and also buried... :D

    i just spent half an hour removing dozens of lava springs from tweaks water slide, as well as repairing the dock that had been set alight.

    i think we should get serious about finding and removing our resident griefer....

    EDIT: also, what the...

    EDIT #2: theres random lava all over the place. the double helices behind the spawn have also suffered an unfortunate fate. id say a chunk error, but the lava and water is all conveniently capped off at the top...

    That's because there's a line above it that hasn't been finished :)

    We need to colour/label the lines so we know where each one goes if there are many. I'm confused where each heads towards :blush:

    There's not really a way that carts could've got to where they are there though from the line unless someone tweaked the line temporarily.

    EDIT: Oh wait, the line to the right. Who's using that line, I wonder?

    And I'd love to see some names for the lines, that would probably make things easier.

    I just travelled the line - there's about 50 carts on it bouncing off each other. It's really, really long (takes a day of travel) and desperately needs stations and cart collection systems. Nice ride though, but my cart broke at the end and I was thrown off a cliff :/

    TCoZ - not just names, but colours too, because then you don't need to be in viewing distance to read which line it is. Have a stone one/wood one/mossy cobble one etc

    You're not talking about my line, right? :D
    That sounds reasonable.

    Hmm, now it would be great to have the color-stones from MC Classic. But, your suggestion should work too..

    Dunno whose it is - the one that goes past my front door and shoots off carts into Downtown West. Is that yours? :p

    Does it have two rails, is it made of cobble (and a little bit of gold)?

    Damn! We must try harder!

    Regarding the train system, I've built the purple rail (along with some help from a few people) and I'm currently debugging it. There's an issue where if you go too far along the rail you just stop. I think it's because the cart hits the maximum momentum and it overflows and resets, which means less boosters, but it's finding that balance where there's still enough boosters for empty carts to make circuits but not so much it causes momentum to overflow.
