Do you know about the nether railroad we have set up? It's only got like 4 stops on it now (unless other ppl have been updating it in recent weeks), but you might try adding to that. Certainly faster to build a railroad 130 blocks in one direction instead of 1000.

If you're going to build something in the sky at 0,0 just make sure it doesn't look awful imo

If people donate materials I'll even make tracks for traveling in both directions so players won't run into each other. Hell, I may even make tracks for shipping supplies around.

Stations will be large enough players can set up beds, there will be a bank area for chests(both private and public), a giant wall of furnaces, and a crafting area. I'll probably make elevators so people can quickly get up to the stations from ground level, not sure how I'll have people getting down from them.

just have a drop chute with some water at the bottom for fast downwards travel.

Lol, I will, but it may look a little shoddy to begin with while I go out and mine resources. At least I've got my spawn reset to there now. That way when I mess up and plummet to my death I don't have to spend 10 minutes running back over there each time....

Hey all, just got the game and came across this awesome thread. I have been told that the 2p2 server is at 2p2.provisionhost.com would it be possible to get added to the whitelist.

I had a browse of this thread but cant find any rules / guides etc... is there anything that is a must read before joining in?

We do have sort of a rule that we should not venture out further than 1000 in any direction from spawn (hit f3 to see your coordinates - it's the x and z coords to the left), but its been done a few times. We need to keep some 'unexplored' country so that the new content in 1.9 and above will have a place to generate so for now, we should not walk too far away.

Don't break/steal others stuff obv - other than that, just have fun, I think

Oh, and you can lock containers (ovens, chests) and doors by making a sign and putting it on them - it will mark it as private with your name and only you can open it.

Cool, thanks. Who do I need to PM to get access to the server?

I should have an automatic cobblestone farm up and running by the end of the night, near (0, 0), if anyone is interested.

Cobblestone factory can be made with 2 buckets of water and a bucket of lava. No wire needed.

You can make a neat sticky piston one though, which I put in my own multiplayer server. It looks neat when built into a wall. (I copied it from YouTube, obv)

I'm a big fan of the 4 block generators though to guarantee continuous digging. There is a gap sometimes with 2 block ones.

Haha, thanks, but that isn't what I was going for. What I'm building uses pistons to crush the cobblestone continuously and can be turned off at the flick of a switch, no digging required( meaning no using up your pickaxes). If I can't get it to work I'll put a generator similar to what's in the links there like I had before.

I was trying to figure it out myself through trial and error, but I guess I'll poke around youtube a bit.

Yeah, that doesn't work anymore.

You could make those a couple patches ago though.
