I think the Mac one has that already, I dunno. I still don't like it, cos it's not as comfortable, accurate, fast or unannoying.

All I really use in my laptop, you're clearly not dedicated enough (saying that, I've not really put much of a stint in lately).

Hey! It's a very pretty car park! :@

It's NOT just a boring slab of grey with white lines and arrows like a supermarket has - but a bunch of nice grey lines, curving about, separated by bushes and trees, with birds singing happily.

If it was purely a case of building I'd be saying let's go for it.

But we need to clear the area first, and even with a ~125 radius that's a huge task. With a ~250 radius it's insane. :/

So, how do you create a singing bird out of minecraft blocks?!

 

<ahem - curves - ahem>

bigger than you think, since you want to go 15 below sealevel

You harass notch until he adds proper birds to the game, and not just flightless chickens.


Or, until then, you make a giant inanimate containing either a jukebox or a few note blocks surrounded by wool.

And then you shout at the person who made me go and do that, except I forgot what type of bird it was going to be, so it's more of a songduck. :@

HAPPY NOW? :@

Yeah, I just noticed that. :S 15 down is fairly deep.


Of course, we could stick to sea level and forget about the annoying clouds?


Or, another option is cheat for the first bit and use a level editor to clear the area? :S

Soooo... what you're saying is all that's needed is a few note blocks around the bird's face and you've got yourself a singing duck?

 

In fact, Peter, go the whole hog and make it sing "White Christmas".

 

Then I'll be happy. :-P

 

That duck looks huge, if you're going to be building your song ducks on that scale, how big is the car park going be, not to mention the whole bio-dome project, is 450x450 blocks going to be big enough?

Squids seem to be able to fly.

I made a thing that sings Twinkle Twinkle Little Star :C

Awww...

 

(hug)

I think cheating the clearance might be a way to go

 

though, I'm happy enough with my TNT

 

ant made me laugh, he TPed to me then was "oh shit!"

To be fair it was a more successful TP than usual!

yes, you did manage to run off without dying that time

Full scale would be huge but very impressive when finished. I say go full size.

For full-size we need either:

1) Kos to temporarily take the server offline and use a map editor to do the bulk of clearing. (Assuming that's possible, not really sure what's involved?)

2) Enough people to volunteer to clear it - and before you volunteer do go check how much Jon and others have done so far (at most 1/8th of the half-size area, so 1/32th of full-size, in 24 hours.)

Someone should put some markers down to (erm) mark the corners or even edges of the clearing, and the right depth.

 

Would make life easier after that.

 

Are we buidling on rock or dirt or whatever's there already?

There is a large path at the depth. I was down there last night (yj).

Woo! Lots of work to do then...
