Machine room looks alright, but can we make it 5 blocks lower? This would make it mesh easier with the tiers of the city, assuming we made each sub-level (levels below middle/where canals are) 6 blocks (5 blocks + floor)

Is no one ever online when I join the server, or are people just not responding? I haven't seen any of you guys in days.

I can't come on until my Internet stops buggering about. It's been running unbearably slowly lately. Ly.
I even have to go down to the local library to download stuff sometimes.

I only usually pop on for significant periods 2 days a week, otherwise my timezone is rather funky.
GMT +10, I might be around an hour before 10am, an hour-2 after  2:30 and a few hours after 10pm.
How big is the factory room? also how far is it from the temp stockpile? I was going to start IRO encasing the old stockpile but perhaps one could be placed near or in the factory room for more valuable items, or perhaps just a new bigger one could be placed nearby?
The old one could be retasked for food/wood/cobble/whatever.

[WillowLuman]

Yeah, temp stockpile is in a terrible location for safety. I believe that what's intended to be the factory room is that ring-shaped chamber dug out at Y 18 just outside the designated walls of the main chamber.

EDIT: How wide is the cone at its central Y level? By my measure it's 58 across, but mineconics shows a different circle plan for that diameter.

[tahujdt]

So... are we building the factories yet? Or waiting for someone to move the room down a bit?

The central level is 60 across.

Sure, although moving it up by one block would work too.

[WillowLuman]

The middle section (Y 61-62) Goes from X 14365 to 14423, which is 58(?) across. And mineconics is giving a different circle pattern for both 58 and 60 than we have.

It's 59 across with a radius of 30.

[WillowLuman]

*Facepalm* mistaking radius for diameter on mineconics. Sorry.

At least I know what to do now.

[MarcAFK]

Screwing around in creative, designed a water elevator/fountain combo.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I don't quite like how the stairs turned out, something a bit more spirally might look better, also I think I might replace the glass outer quarters with garden.
I'll plop this down at the main entrance rail line, however I couldn't get minecart upwards teleport to work on creative, maybe It got patched? I briefly ran that world on the newest snapshot in order to get a flying machine running...

[WillowLuman]

Looks great! But don't the rails already come up to the surface?

[MarcAFK]

Oh I'm building this at the other end of the station, at the forest near neverwhere.
Mostly to save power rails or whatever.
I'll need an assload of glass though.
Rdit: Once I have the area marked out I'll just make the water elevator and connect the rails, the details can wait till I have access to glass and time to dig the damn thing out.

[WillowLuman]

Alright, excavation of the main chamber is now intersecting the generated mineshaft. May need help now, especially harvesting the cobwebs without breaking them.

[tahujdt]

Just got home, will help.

EDIT: last call for any discussion re: the factory room, if there is none, I'll just go ahead and build some factories.

I say just go ahead. We can always renovate later; just make sure that the factories are in good spots.
