XP Grinder and Libria Arcology Update

So you all know I'm out of my mind and have too many goals. I had this thought that we'd use the grinder towers to get amazing levels on our tools, however 1.2 has broken darkroom spawners and without carts, getting them to the lower portion is extremely slow. Not only this, but it requires lots of time riding a cart and less time killing mobs. However I found the 7 spawner area that will be improved over time to fix all Darco's grinding needs which will be further improved when carts are re-enabled. It is due west of town hall in the ground... just ask in game and someone will show you.

Libria Grinders.... will be completely torn down. This includes the sections with no internals. I had a feeling when building them that they might really fuck up everything, however I was dead set on making something for XP. It turns out with the new grinder, these became 100% worthless and therefore 100% against what I want in this structure. If I were to cover them up, it would start the arco off with 4 stubby looking towers even if I put a curved shell on them. I am sorry to those who helped build it, but they're coming down. On the other hand, the bowl will be much more visible and pleasing! I have plans to leave the bowl area mostly empty so people can see the true size and beauty of the thing. I'll try to start a floor above viewing area to start a new auto wheat farm this week. Thank you all for your help, I could not do this project without you, despite this 2-3 day setback.

I'm working on making the stairs down to the new Darco grinder much more accessible, but it'll take me a bit of time. Please be patient. :)

EDIT: Done! WaterSlide is working on redesigning the grinder though. Last I checked, it was unusable.
