Please do not work on the walls, as I have specific designs for them, and they have a very specific pattern.

Honestly, I think we should probably be building houses inside the city now. The region west of the keep would be a good area I think.

Ok! I didn't see anyone work on that wall section for a few days so I figured it was forgotten in lieu of something else. There was already scaffolding in place at most of the worksite so I just finished it up. I did my best to follow the pattern of the other walls- the only things that might be off are the floor tiles, which I did my best on, and the slope/incline stuff, which I've already mentioned. I've also left some stone and cobblestone in the gate-tower with ground-level access nearest to that section of well.

There's already a house to the west of the keep. There is a little bit of terraforming that needs to be done in the area to cover up an emergency shelter but otherwise that area seems finished based on my observations.

However, as people have already seen my design for a temple and its size, if the consensus is still that it's a neat design to put in the city somewhere, I won't be claiming any additional land until the temple is finished.Edit: See below

We're keeping that area as a park, if you go back to the earlier discussion when we were planning out the city. May I suggest the large forested area inside the walls near the slums (going by the picture below, the grid square immediately west of the slums)? There is plenty of flat space there, and that region would actually work quite well as a temple quarter; it is near a major population centre (the slums) and there is not much in the way of roads etc planned for the area yet, so you would have more room to layout the floorplan.

(Please ignore the bit about the chunkload distance, this was from my calculations for a tradeback system, and I have since found that the value was wrong).

Ah, I missed the park discussion I guess. I'll take a look sometime in the area you suggested!

The roads in the areas East, Southwest and West of the keep have not been finished completely. The house has, unfortunately, blocked off a couple of roads.

The Southeastern area was planned to be an urban/suburban area for the middle-lower class, so the roads will often be built as needed.

May I ask why there are battlements/crenelations on the inside?  Is it really a prison or something?

I think it was just a mistake by the original creator and an intent by whoever repaired the theme to keep the original idea intact.

Speaking of battlements, I've extended the wall a bit but have reached an impasse.

First problem...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Either I need to terraform the cliffs, make a previous section of wall with a slope steeper (breaking continuity slightly), or ignore the fact that the walls can be climbed onto from one side.

Second problem...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It's hard to see but this is on a steep cliff. I'm not sure whether to build a tower here - which would eliminate the first problem from hence forth, since I can go up a number of floors until it works as a wall on both sides, or to keep going without a tower, as it may not be necessary based on the response to the first problem!

What texture pack is that?

I finished off that road & corner lord:

Just thought id mention Notch is removing the booster glitch.

Was mentioned earlier, yeah.

I've booked the train ticket to Stockholm, and I'll be bringing a baseball bat and a duffel bag. Anyone with me?

Very tempting. Gold rails are pricey; 1 rail per ingot :/

Maybe I am just terrible with timing, but I never see anybody on either server.

I haven't been on at all this weekend - was out of town helping wrangle small children at a church-related thing. I'm on pretty regularly, generally working on my underground park/Red Light District.

Speaking of which, that area is fully prepped except for some work to make it more parklike. I need glowstone for some recessed floor lighting and leaf blocks to make hedging, bushes, etc.

Got the resources to pay for it?
