  4. On a(n) (un)related note,
    Redeagle94 and Remcob1 do not plan on coming back.
    If you guys want to recycle their creations, go ahead.
    Redeagle's creation is the observation room with the destroyed shield in front near omeletrice's house.
    Remcob1 has his house underwater nearly in front of it.

  6. The whiteline is also missing track across the bridge out of city center.
    I have no rail, but if wool is needed to repair I may be able to help.

    Hate to have my first post start with that news. :-(

    Anyway I have been around LLO a week or so now and on a similar unrelated note (but close to!) as the previous post, after talking with shavingfoam the other day, i started building next to the lot mentioned above but across the tracks. He said it was owned by someone eventually banned. This lot was empty but I have discovered a dug out cave underneath it that is under several lots. I think its just a mine but I would like to be sure, I would like to modify it under where I planned to build. Any comments for or against me blocking off the end under my lot (which was apparently a dead end.)

  9. Across the tracks from redeagle's lot. I have attached a file that helps I hope. I can build some regular rails to help I think but I'm no rail engineer :)

  10. So I am going to make a problem solution post now.

    Problem:
    The central desert districts of the LLO lack a proper rail system and you have to go to one of the rail heads to get to grand central. This is annoying for me and I am sure it is for others as well.

    I have come up with 2 solutions.

    Solution 1:
    My first solution is probably the most feasible and easiest and does not harm anything anyone has built. So I went travelling during the week and the CBD of the city I was in had a tram system running through it and I thought this would be good for the LLO. It would be a single line to start with but might expand later. It would just be one track in the middle of the roads. No stops you just get on and get off when you need to. This line would run from outside grand central and go to the left of Dwights park. It would then turn right onto lotads street and then it would wind along other roads to the Philo Tower. I could then expand the lines if needed.

    Solution 2:
    My second solution is a bit more complex and my not even be possible. All I would do is change the route of the sandstone line to go through some more areas of the desert and then arrive at the lower level of grand central. The problem with this is that there are SO many underground constructions in the LLO it may not be possible.

    So what do people thing Solution 1 or 2?

  13. There were rails there long time ago but removed and were placed at current lines. So we would be taking a step back not forward.

    That's right, I meet you in game , yea it should be fine :D

  14. Also it's only short walking distant, remember we made the rail lines to travel around LLO don't want stops every 30 blocks we had that it was ugly

  15. But that is the point of the tram like system no stops at all other than the ends of the track.

  20. I think the rule was pretty clearly stated by Aikar. And I think I've been pretty clear that I'm happy to discuss changing any of my work if someone is polite enough to ask me personally, especially the things I have built for the community.

    Nevertheless my work keep getting changed by people without any discussion. I've let it go in the past but it stuns me that after all that has been said in the last few weeks I still have to remove changes to GC station. It's rude and it's against the rules and the next time it happens I'll report you for griefing.
