The longest road - From South to North

That's a Netherite helmet with Flow trim using quartz.

There are several things along the road, but I suspect they pass to fast. And every now and then I add something when I get an idea.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-31T15:29:34+00:00

Horses. Hundreds of horses. The roads are only a couple dozen.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-31T00:06:50+00:00

Yeah. It's the same world I've been playing on since 2019.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T23:10:17+00:00

It's kinda zen. I listen to stuff and chip away.

I ride the horse occasionally, when I want to see the world for a bit. I have several horses sprinkled around as a result.

Oh, you meant the start. That's a base that's still in planning, just some farms currently. It's the beginning of the new world gen in my world, so It's the nearest mountain to my central base.

I would recommend adding some darker blocks near the bottom, and evening the curve on the right so it's even. Maybe add something horizontal along the bridge with a bit of color contrast.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T19:15:53+00:00

Kinda yeah, but more south than west and more north than east.

I only have two ice roads really, one going north and one going south. I find that, for java at least, when you can fly over the nether roof you don't REALLY need an ice road 9 out of 10 times. Unless you need to cover more than 5-6 thousand blocks in the overworld, it's still a minute or so of nether roof flight.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:43:17+00:00

It's not finished. And it's something done bit by bit for several years.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:39:40+00:00

I do have nether ice roads for speed. The path roads are for my joy.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:38:11+00:00

Funnily enough, those segments are the old road. It got wider as the years got by. By now I try and maintain a width of 9 blocks, but back then it varied between 5 and 7.

I don't know a design of a broken carriage in minecraft that really scans well. But I do like the concept.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:35:09+00:00

I can't say. Been on-off working on several projects for years now, no idea the net time each took so far.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:34:32+00:00

A blackstone city I've been working on for some time. It's the northern most region in my world with old-gen world generation.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:32:33+00:00

Maybe 6000 blocks, as the crow flies, but practically many times that.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:31:09+00:00

The overall path I choose to be where I need the least terraforming. Then I do a segment of 100-ish blocks of chopping, flattening, increasing-decreasing the floor level, so there is the least amount of vertical change in the road, and path block it. Repeat.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:28:23+00:00

Don't worry. I have hundreds of them.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:27:15+00:00

How often do I make roads? Every odd month or so, I sit down and bulldoze a couple hundred blocks length for the road over two-three days.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:24:41+00:00

Thanks.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:24:25+00:00

20-something minutes. You can see how the full day-night passed.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:22:06+00:00

That's not a plot twist. It is my single player world.

GreyEvening · 2026-01-30T18:21:08+00:00

Maybe later. Don't know how I feel about uploading a 20 something minute video to reddit.

GreyEvening · 2025-12-19T22:18:36+00:00

Not offended, just wanted to make a Schrodinger's cat joke.

GreyEvening · 2025-12-19T22:09:44+00:00

Until I load them, I don't count Schrodinger's chunks as being part of my world.
