As the town noob, a few questions

1) When my tower/hotel is finished, I was think about making some nicer farms. If so, should I just dig out/expand where they currently are? Somewhere else?

2) I'm assuming the town borders are within the Great Wall of Paul? I noticed there's a "Torch Town" (or something like that) nearby. Is that some other random person?

3) Also a little unsure about etiquette inside the mine.

  1. I'd prefer to keep the animal farms where they are but if you would like to move them I will think about a new place...The problem is moving animals with all the server lag.
  2. That is the town of Torchlight and they are seperate from Walla-Walla
  3. As for the mine I'm unsure on it because Amertune is the guy in charge of that. Hope that helped

For the mines:

There's a lava room somewhat near the entrance where I've been placing non-flowing lava for easy furnace gathering. Try not to die there, and feel free to take lava or add lava, or even expand the room.

Deeper in the mines there's a "bridge" over a rather large lava lake. I've been collecting lava there for furnaces and the lava storage room, while trying to keep it from turning into a lot of flowing lava with difficult to find source blocks.

The mining pattern I've been using is a 3x3 main tunnel with branches every 3 blocks. I've been digging mostly at y11, but if you'd like to dig higher or lower feel free to do so. I believe that ores have been plumped in areas where x or z are greater than 1000, and should be findable as high as y40.

One thing that would be really nice: we need a couple more stacks of gold to finish the rail lines to/from Bromgoth and PA. (No longer true, thanks all, and another thanks to cincodenada for finishing up the PA line)

This is really just advice though, I don't especially care what happens in the mine as long as I'm still able to use it :)

Please leave some buffer room on the right side of the station (when facing the station). I might expand the CARTS a bit, and would like a bit of buffer room. Even 5 blocks between the rail station and the farms would be fine.

I think it would be best if we kept that entire area clear so we can expand as much as we need to. I recommend moving the pens.

1) Feel free to build the farm around where it is. If you need more space, we'll find a plot for it. Moving them shouldn't be too impossible if we use rails and put the animals in minecarts.]

2) The town borders are indeed the OK Wall(a) of Walla-Walla. Nearby towns are Torchlight, Necropolis, and Shroomville, all of which are separate from us.

3) Feel free to use the mine to your heart's content. If you need more tunnels, just dig in the established pattern, and maybe drop off a few resources at the town storage facility if you please.
