[EAST SUBWAY] Planning and reconstruction - updated to x1525
Posted: Wed Feb 05, 2014 10:42 am
PURPOSE:
If you live along the East subway line, you'll probably know by now that it's completely unusable due to the wipe removing large sections of the tunnel. This thread is for land owners along the East subway line to coordinate reconstruction of the line.
Please post any help / information about the subway that you can give below, and I will add it to this first post.
If you need rails, please talk to alexribicki in game ... he has access to the subway storage (donated rails etc). Make sure you work out how many stacks of each you need before asking him for supplies, so he's not constantly running back and forth for them =)

Return: 799/29/73 to 1100/29/102

Return: 1100/29/102 to 1283/30/78
Action: Could do with a few more torches ... otherwise complete
SECTION 8 - TUNNEL INTACT; RAILS MISSING [NEKOVIOLA'S PLOTS]
Outgoing: 1283/30/76 to 1314/30/76
Return: 1283/30/78 to 1314/30/78
Action: NekoViola - lay rails. Also correct the "In" and "Out" signs at 1282/30/77 which are on the wrong lines.
SECTION 9 - COMPLETE [NEKOVIOLA'S PLOTS]
Outgoing: 1314/30/76 to 1399/28/76
Return: 1314/30/78 to 1399/28/78
Action: None required
SECTION 10 - SINGLE 3x3 TUNNEL DUG [PUBLIC PLOTS]
Outgoing: 1399/28/76 to 1534/29/31
Return: 1399/28/78 to 1534/29/33
Action: Lay rail ... I believe gallinka is doing this section ... thanks and ask alexrybicki for rail supplies =)
SECTION 11 - UNKNOWN [PCGAMER'S PLOT AND BEYOND]
PC ... you own 1575/25 which is next in line ... would be great if we could continue the subway straight through here =)
CONSTRUCTION GUIDELINES:
In all cases, the lines (outgoing and return) shall be located as follows:
OUTGOING FROM SPAWN: South side
RETURN TO SPAWN: North side
If you don't understand what I mean by that, just travel along the subway until you reach Alexrybicki's realms and can see the inwards and outwards lines side by side.
Powered rails should be placed no more than 37 blocks apart (ie 1 powered rail, then 37 normal rails, then 1 powered rail) on level terrain, or 1 block apart on upwards slopes. This keeps the minecart speed at it's optimal 8 blocks/second. Powered rails are not required on downslopes. Booster rails after stops should be three powered rails adjacent to each other to get the minecart up to full speed as quickly as possible.
Lighting should be placed such that the entire track and tunnel is at light level 8 or above to prevent mob spawns.
Please avoid complicated redstone switching mechanisms and line changes. They are often difficult to understand and cause confusion. A normal raised or sunken platform stop with a separate line leading off to the side is easier to build and easier to understand (see pics in spoiler). Please use wooden buttons at stops, not stone, as they give a longer redstone signal than stone buttons and start the cart off much more quickly.
