I think that something to keep in mind in minecraft is that there will always be someone with a bigger and better tower.

  • Mine a ton of sand
  • Dump it all out to sea until it reaches the surface
  • Mine out the middle
  • Build glass dome
  • Remove remaining sand
  • Sealab!

Man, I didn't realise how large the worlds are... I went sailing at night, figured I'd just go around the island. Now I'm lost and although I now I can just respawn, I won't know how to get back to where I am now, which has some awesome terrain.


Sealab idea is great, btw.

Prob the easiest way is to just grab cartograph and see how far you've explored on there. Can get cart from the minecraft forums.

Please do not build minecarts or their tracks. Currently in multiplayer they cause crashing.

And... we built sealab. Not in the ocean. But in the middle of the desert!

we got

* twin towers
* interconnected underground tunnels
* sealab
* giant android logo akin to Rio DiJenero
* various castles, houses, mines, factory rooms, storage chests
* huge deep holes

come join the fun and bring your imagination.

Vert's house was a victim of yet another environmental hazard, a freak fire spread throughout his trees and into his home - which then somehow flooded his house.

I have many witnesses to attest that I was in IceFox's house the whole time!

(sorry)

just an FYI, the server software is even more alpha than the client and over the last 48 hours I've HAD to restart it about 3 or 4 times because someone would make a huge fire or craft some minecarts or similar and lock everything up/lag it to shit.

Luckily I've been playing the game at the time those events happened, but I'm not always on like some of you. So if for some reason it all goes to shit while i'm not around, just post in here asking for a restart and I'll get it sussed as soon as I can.

I have it running on a debian VPS inside a screen session, so rebooting it from my work, home, phone etc is a trivial task.

  • Gather some ladders, wood, dirt and saplings
  • Attach the ladders to the side of a tree
  • Punch through the foliage until you're at the top
  • Put a dirt block on top of the last wood block
  • Plant sapling
  • Wait till tree has grown then remove dirt and replace with wood
  • Expand up and out
  • Treefort!

Ive done something like that, but I took it further. I also put water source blocks with the dirt which meant the tree would grow much bigger, and would be under a dome of water.

PHP script. Handles backups & checks that the server hasn't crashed etc. Maybe worth a look at?

lol played a tf2 map called pl_minepit that used all minecraft textures. Ammo packs were ingots, health packs were bacon and bread, the payload was a bunch of TNT, pretty awesome.

A combined view of Jenzas sign, sealab, holcano, the waterslide, mpx's sad garden, and the moon (or is it a space station...) under construction.


Also, a candid shot of mpx contemplating the sunset from his lonely cube, suspended as high as he dare construct.

I signed up for this in the weekend - my first world, I got zombied on my first night - my start point had no coal, and I panicked and thus died....

Haven't played MP yet - but might jump on.... looks like I'll need to learn a shit load first though

Not really, health/mine carts don't work in multiplayer at the moment, so MP is just Lego mode. Still lots of fun though.

Dive in, go nuts. The wiki will tell you all you need to know. Just don't build any mine cart stuff.

So why'd you guys go with the survival multiplayer rather than the infinite blocks/multiple colours etc that other people roll with?
