    i am considering building a train system on infinity node 1. i will start with my base and branch out. my question is this, should i claim all the stations? or leave them public and hope they dont get griefed? i would really love to have them be public, and available for all to use and enjoy. trains are kinda a hobby of mine and i love building them in minecraft. just looking for the community's thoughts on this.

    Hope they wont get griefed?
    I had a good laugh at that.

    People can not have nice things on a public server. While its against the rules.... people will grief it

    Well, in theory one could code a plugin that claims the tracks and 1 block on each side of them, and those claim blocks would be completely different from the golden shovel claims, so that way you start out with enough to do a decent railway if you so desire. If you want, I can look into making such a plugin.

    While this is brilliant for a pack like Vanilla plus it might not be "great" for larger mod pack.

    On Infinity there are already ways to protect single blocks by the way of Thaumcraft.

    As for single block protection, if you could code this and make it similar to grief prevention so that if a players is offline for "x" amount of time, the claim deletes..... I would recommend it to be used on FTB Vanilla Plus server where Railcraft is/will be the means of transportation

    that type of plugin sounds awesome. as for vanilla+ the amount of mining required to make such a railway would be insane. I play large tech packs to avoid mining :)

    I love hand mining and making Railways to deliver my goods back from the mine.

    fringe the other way u can do it is claim it and subdivide the claim so players can use but not break, also u should no mym has a zero grief policy so even if it was grief if can be returned to the way it was and responsible player for the grief banned

    You have any plans yet on how to manage the trains traffic? As soon as the network exceeds the chunk borders, this might actually become quite a problem.

    How far does the server load?

    When i was fighting the ender dragon on vanilla plus... he would just freeze and stop moving untill i ran over to him.

    I also noticed my Arrow who stay suspended in air until i ran to them.
    would this be part of the server limits or a bug i need to report?

    Entities far away have a reduced tick rate.

    As long as you are using the train for your self and load the route that shouldn't cause issues. But if you try to send empty carts they will be stuck at the first unloaded chunk.
    Idk. if they are also affected by the reduced entity tick rate.

    my basic plan, and this will need testing is to use spot loaded carts. not sure how that will play with my 9 spot loader limit. this is definitely going to need alot of testing and work. have been talking to some people and node 1 and all like the idea of a working railway, so gonna pursue it and see how it goes :)

    Wish you would bring this over to Vanilla Plus.
    On infinity... everyone can fly. Would they even use it?
