knock yourself out. You could make a small/medium walled village, and get grim to put zombie spawners around, making a zombie survival place. Maybe make it like the cemetary at spawn, but with a town around the cemetary ? Or jump on that zombie server make some notes and rip it off

Every world on the server has its own permissions and ranks.

Probably have to nominate someone like willo was on funpark to act as the "dungeon master" to maintain the place.
I've stuck a few little bits near the entry gate, wood supply, craft table etc.
And hid a chest of food up top a building.
Was just testing the zombie apocolypse gameplay in adventure mode.
Seemed to have potential, but the spawn rate was way down from what it should have been, thus my thoughts regarding spawners.
At the moment Grim could help out with configuring spawners.
I would first suggest someone work up some story boards, or a map and plot, then select places for spawners sell signs, note signs etc.. eg ambushes or spawners near treasures.
... or even spells.. in theory except the entry point and the lighting in the bunker the entire world can be regenerated back to what it is now if a few rocket launchers (ie fireball spell) floor a few buildings. There are also spawners under ground in bunkers and sewers already, ive not explored this version of the generator fully yet. Could be quite fun.
Now you may think fireball spell - too destructive.. but consider that in adventure mode you cant simply dig up some reagents.. you would need to find "supplies" to rearm the spell there... which depending on the spell, could lead to some very interesting gameplay with other players. This world would have been ideal for the regenerating chests plugin, or even the RPG plugin's dungeon loot.

Well, i was thinking mabey supercharged creepers... as people wont automatixcly assume we're coping them and/or their server. and what i mean about the giant cities... If the worlds supposed to be abandoned and dead, why are there giant well formed and neatly arranged buildings? Thus my question... "What are we giong to do with the several massive cities in cybertron?". it wont make any sense.

The mystery there was kind of meant to be the idea.
Have not previously come up with a "plot device" to fully explain the abandonment of the city, other than the old "Zombie Apocolypse" scenario which is why i have been making changes to that direction.
Under the earlier generator for that world, the entire world was city (thus the name cybertron, a world similarly built made sense) but the current version of the generator gives a more natural layout, at the loss of the awsome sewers it used to have (which now only exist at the "ground zero" centre point of the city now.)
Since we seem to have a perfect if not mysteriously abandoned provincial city, that screams to me "resident evil"
Although it is much prettier, the world is just as expendible as the old cybertron which had a plot along the lines of it being a warzone - which is why the spawn was moved their briefly during our grief squad crisis - as ironically cybertron being griefed would simply make it look more in style of a warzone .. i was exploiting the griefers as a resource *evil laughter*
Brinsta as I understand it is already working with brotherhood, and assisting in funpark, and Grimsgate? Is Wolfie or any of the other so far reasonably responsible staf or players working on anything? That might be interested in equipping a "resident evil" zombie style world?
You could even simulate the left for dead "zombie rush" by building underground rooms with spawners, with a piston triggered floor operated by a touchplate in the tunnel below..
Ie.. underground tunnel, at the end of tunnel is a light and a chest. Current part of tunnel is dark. As they run towards the chest they trigger a floor plate which opens some pistons in the roof which causes a bunch of zombies to drop into the tunnel.
Or another design might be a narrow tunnel, once again with a lit chest at the end, but have wall mounted pistons and one under the tunnel, you trigger the plate the floor opens up and the wall one pushes you in the hole down to some zombie dungeon to escape (basically you can never get to the chest easily)
A lot of fun could be had here, which is why i suggest making some maps and story boards to structure the design!

Woking with brother hood? i thought i co owned it... that's what warpig says... assisting in fun-park? no I'm not doing any work there... i don't even know why you gave me creative in that world in the first place... Grimsgate.... uhh..? what? I'm not doing ANYTHING there... let alone my rank... _______________________________________________________________________And the zombie thing: Essentially, i thought we would do a combination of mutant mobs because there is a zombie apocalypse server "Minez" and my main worry is if they relise we "stole" their idea (or however they take it) they'll sue or some crap because they are a pretty serious and popular server. Sooo... my main thought is originality. I thought of a quick plot similar the the "Need world ideas" reply i posted, so here it goes... _______________________________________________________________________the year is 2058, and humanity is gone. forever. a few people have evacuated via the space...craft...thing... The world was once like yours. Green. Peaceful. Balanced. Harmonious. Life. unfortunately, the humans of this world... wasted their resources, relying upon cheap and heavily polluting energy resources. The core of the planet slowly... dulled... darkened as the health of their only home planet's state worsened. Scientists later discovered that their world was going to die in 2037. They warned and pleaded with their political figures and major rulers of -nameofplanet-. however their pleadings was ignored for the sake of profits. in 2045, humans were frantic with fear. everyday earthquakes and ruptures appeared in the surface of -nameofplanet-. The governments at this time relised it was too late to take action, as their world was almost dead. _______________________________________________________________________ladeladela... they basically conduct this nuclear experiment to "shock" their core back alive and it instead malfunctioned and killed all humans and mutated the remaining ones (supercharged creepers, zombies ect...) and i cant be bothered writing anything more so that's my idea on the whole thing REPLY LENGTH LEVEL- SEMI-PHOENIXPs... Phoenix's record for words is 1,439...

You counted the words?
Re: working, i meant working as in a project sense, time spent on blah. etc. Being an owner hasn't crossed my mind; I just meant where ever it is you spend time when you play normally.
Cybertron is still a little too neat looking for a nuke based scenario, I suppose i could explore the "custom buildings" feature and use a few preset ruins, but that would take a whole lot of time. You could substitute a romero style biological disaster instead of nuke, then all the rest fits.
One thing the generator can do is in out lying areas look more "decayed" that option was turned on a while back, we just haven't "explored" over a edge of city area yet to see how it looks. that would give the edges of the city a more "being reclaimed by nature" look in theory. As I said; not sure how it looks.
I doubt minez will have any copyright issues, firstly we are using public plugins, and built-in features, not the minez library. The "zombie" theme is already integral in minecraft, as is adventure mode; If anything I am looking more at resident evil or left for dead for inspiration. Plus minez is in a legal grey zone already, they throw lawyers at someone, and Mojang would likely turn around and do the same thing to minez. There is a strong fair use culture in mojang.
