IMPORTANT: All material in this post is subject to change. This is just the first draft, and it needs to be approved by the management. An official city name is also needed.
As most of you know, a few players and I have been working on the plans for a new city for our SMP map. The general planning is done, but the clearing of land, building, naming, and truely making it home on SMP still needs to be done.
Location:
City gate will be at x:928 y:88
Housing:
Housing for the city is fairly limited, but more homes could be made available if the demand is high enough.
As of now, we have room for 21 individual houses/apartments. There are 4 types to choose from: a small house with an interior space of 3x6x6, a medium sized house with an interior space of 6x9x6, a large house with a first floor space of 10x11x4 with a second floor space of 8x5x4, and an apartment with an interior space of 11x6x4.
All exteriors will be strictly regulated to keep the same overall feel within the city. The interiors of the houses will be zoned to the owner, and can be modified to their liking.
Infastructure:
Planned City Resources for Residents:Common Cobblestone Generator
Pig Farm
Warehouse
Wheat/Reed Farms (room planned for future updates)
Tree Farm
Portal to the Tower of Babel (Free use for residents?)
City Owned Shop (Will most likely buy and sell wares)
Small Inn with limited rooms (Might be removed.. need ideas for a replacement)
The Market:
Market stalls will act sort of as shop for players. The player will be able to rent out the stall on bi-weekly or a monthly basis (TBD) and will be able to sell their wares from their stalls. Also, there is a limited number so if a players is late on payments, I reserve the right to remove their lease and wares from the stall.
Also, I will need someone with a thing for redstone to devise some sort of trap/emergency shutdown of the city gates. Thinking towards the future, if we have wars between cities and to keep out the mobs at night.
Building:
Groundbreaking starts as soon as people come to help! This is not something I can get done on my own, and its by far the biggest project I have undertaken yet (approx. size will be 200x150). Builders will need to be able to follow the plans for the city block by block. That means double and triple checking the area on which you're working, as mistakes can be costly.
As of now, I simply don't have the money to pay builders for their work. If someone does help and they decide to purchase a house in the city, there could be a large discount on the price based on the amount of work done. Or, I could set up a city treasury and draw money from that account to pay players. Howard, I need some help on this one.
Finally, I can't wait tot get this project underway. It's been on my mind since the day I started it as a spawn proposal. I'd also like to thank the people who have helped me here and there, giving a big thanks to Frimple as he supplied me the space on his map and was constantly bothered by me asking for his opinion on the smallest of things.
Anyone ready to build?
