SMP Subway

Thu Jan 26, 2012 9:53 pm

I'm starting a subway tunnel. for now, it will be from spawn to my island. however, i may make a gate to a facility that is about equal distance from many of the bases/towns/whatev, for which people can make rail lines to there bases/towns/whatevs. if you like this, just tell me in a reply. and if you have an idea of where to put the main station, also tell me in a reply.

I'd like to start by saying I love the idea of having train stations and trains on our servers. That is why we have tried and failed to do it several times already. Go to creative and type /warp old then go out the north exit and there you will find on your left steps leading down to a subway which goes in different directions for around 1,000-1,500 blocks combined.

The problem is the project is so big digging out all that ground. And people always leave carts on the track and when your own cart hits one of those it causes issues where you start to go back on the track from where you came.

In short we've never been able to accomplish a proper subway system that people will actually use. This is why we use Stargates because they are easy to build and everyone can connect up their stuff. If you want to create a subway Crazy then go for it more power to you but I'll tell you now, don't get upset if people don't use it.

I like your idea but like Pri said it's a big operation and requires time and I'm not sure if people would use it. It stil would be handy and I'd use it but yea.
