Multiplayer is where it's also at when it comes to trains.
Check out the Freaks R Us server sometime. They have all the subway stations and long-stretching tunnels set up already, just waiting for a train system to be implemented.

NPC is definitely in the plans.
For trains, I envision a modular system that begins with various engine types, including a classical steam, diesel, and diesel/electric hybrid. Each engine type should have different towing capacities to limit the number of cars that can be towed. The flatbed car suggested above should also be buildable so we can build custom vehicles (e.g. circus cars with windows ontop for the giraffes to stick their heads out).
I'd still like to see a light rail system with lower tow capacity
The various car types should include commuter cars (maybe two per engine) but also include an electrical option so i can set up my people movers like in Disney -
As an alternative to the big steam and diesel trains, I'd love to see an electric commuter system like the People Mover at Disney. Those things were zippy and relaxing to ride.

Red mentioned that we will be able to place water in creative mode so you can make one. Since water is static, it probably wont flow anywhere but should still look nice

The wiki is being migrated into this domain name so it should be add free
-
There needs to a Technical category which should contain pages on the API, lua scripting, console commands, boot flags, and server setup, and various troubleshooting guides

now i can LIve in a Van By the River!
https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/s…art=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-001How about this? Greenland Linienbus/ Bus Shuttle
If I had a blueprint for this, I'd craft a few and make an RV camp by a lake -
Hmmmm.... if we can bend metal plates or atleast place them in the world then one could live in a van by the river.

HOLY CRAP
this blows away what admin Trouble & I createdquick question tho, @red51 will we be able to adjust the default water level ? like in a config set at what height the "sea level" is at ?
Ah yes... i was walking on that a few days ago.

Excellent idea. You missed one important use for papyrus and that is as a food source. The bottom half is wet and softer than the top so its not useful for crafting but can be eaten. Anyways, papryus, along with other versatile plants such as bamboo and hemp, would be useful for lots of basic crafting needs in a survival game mode where you start out with absolutely nothing. Hemp can be found in grassy fields and occasionally bamboo plants. Papyra lining rivers and lakes in the desert biome would seem very appropriate. Now that water is coming, it would be nice to see the papyra as well.

Indeed it does. I'm guessing we are getting a beach biome too with this. I wonder if the static ponds will contain a unique floor and border of mud, sand, or cobblestone with lillipads and fish! oOooh, I can only hope.
-
OMG! That looks as beautiful as I imagined it would be!
Are we getting a beach and ocean biome as well with this update?

Thanks

Deirdre,
Where is your server? I would love to see your builds

Hi Dagoline,
You said they are rotatable. How are you rotating the blueprints? I obviously am missing something fundamental because I cannot rotate any of mine.
-
I re-read some of Red's posts. I guess its not going to be next update but the one after which will be water. But the next update should also include some screenshots of the water which I'm really looking forward to
-
At this time, it doesnt seem like blueprints can be rotated

I haven't seen this mentioned before but it is an excellent idea. I'm not sure if Red would consider that now or if there is something to be worked into the electrical system. A timer or pulse generator would be a basic component to have in the game. You could adjust duration, intensity, and interval. That way any light (or large scale CPU) could be hooked up to it.
Personally I love the looks of tall radio towers at night with their soft glowing pulsating red lights. I'd love to be able to reproduce that.

Funny, that's how I feel about all the sandstone you can mine in the desert but cannot craft from it. I hope Red squeezes in a fix to make sandstone blocks craftable from sandstone in the next update.

I could definitely see a mod pack for building stuff like this.
