Transport hub is well underway
Some instructions if you're joining the server:
- the contraption in the middle is a perpetual booster. Push the cart on the outside anti-clockwise around the track, and once it passes the cart on the inside it will continue to circle the track. Then go to the main track, and wait for the cart to pass the piece of track near the start. Then place your cart here and jump in. When the cart passes again (jump in quick, it circles very quickly) you will get a free boost to set you off. I made this so that you can always use the track without someone having to give you a push
- head to the control tower and read the instruction in there. Here's general breakdown of them
There are 3 'routes'. The entire track is designed kind of like a router. You must set the routes up correctly first. More routes will be added when there are more destinations
0 = off, 1 = on. You can tell wether or not the circuit is on depending on wether the redstone is lit up or not
So, say you wanted to go to the main fort. You'd look at the "Main Fort" sign and it would say something like:
MAIN FORT
R1: 1
R2: 0
R3: 0
Basically this means you have to turn Route 1 on and Routes 2 and 3 off
Then on the opposite side of the room to the route levers are the levers that control the specific destination. Each lever controls 2 destinations, one for on and one for off. The sign next to the lever will say which is which. So far example, the sign will say:
MAIN FORT = 0
WATER SLIDE = 1
So you will have to make sure that the lever is turned off. The state of the other destination levers doesn't matter as long as you've set the route levers up correctly
To recap:
Read destination list to find route set up for your destination
Set up route lever
Head on over to destination lever and find the one which controls your destination
Set it accordingly
Push cart to get booster going
Place your cart at the right time
Jump in
Enjoy the ride!
I know it seems a little complicated but due to the technical restrictions of them game it's the most practical system I could come up with. Also, once you've done it a couple of times, it's easy. Whole process beats just walking somewhere anyway, trust me
- some general notes. Please don't make any edits to the platform or track itself without asking me or Joben, the slightest change could have a big effect. Please don't play around under the track or platform, that's where all the circuits are ran through and their set up is pretty fragile. Also, please always keep the door closed. A creeper getting on the platform and blowing up would be disasterous
- if you want to help, please do. I'm busy building the circuits so I need people to help with track and defense building. If you want to help about by gathering resources (wood and iron mostly) that's be great too. If you have somewhere you want connected to the transport, jsut ask me and I'll be happy to do it
