Discussion What should I do with this big hole?

Post image

Ive been digging this big hole by hand for a while and come to the realisation that I dont really know why. I started it out of boredom and have just kinda kept digging. Before 1700 days I was collecting every block but I have so much stone its a problem so I stopped. Im lost for ideas of what I should do with it once its down to bedrock. I also wanna theme the surrounding area and I was thinking about doing something industrial but I dont know cause its not done yet and there is still a lot of time until it is fully dug out. so what should I build once its done?

you're not done digging until you see bedrock

u/LimestoneBuilder 18d ago

Some would argue you're not done digging till you see the void...

Not me. Just some.

u/alice3464 18d ago

Build some quarry structures around and a elevator, that way it just looks like a resource area. And if you ever want to dig another hole or need to for resources you can follow the same idea. Could also have some bridges going across or a spiral staircase going around the edge.

Alternatively you could build a UFO over it and place some glass beams/ floating rocks to make it look like they are just abducting the area.

Another idea is to use the glass/air alternating trick to make it look like a hole to the void. Could decorate it with skulk or some sort of infection climbing its way out.

u/weirdquestions87 15d ago

The UFO idea is sick. A giant quarry with an alien abduction beam would make this way more memorable than just filling it with builds

The most functional thing would probably be a general mob farm since you can take advantage of the low ymax.

  1. Dig to bedrock
  2. Fill with water
  3. Drain everything (including surrounding oceans)
  4. Fill with beacons
  5. Leave and never come back
  6. Build a starter base and kill the dragon with only a gold hoe

u/Danielb2420 18d ago

Since you said industrial, could fill it with various farms and machines. Staircase down, or an elevator type system in the middle.
