Pretty funny for a bit. Of course, though, they just had to go for the repetition bits around the 2 minute mark. Annoying.
Regardless, we need to get this topic back onto discussion of -- well, airships and trains. Speaking of which, I am going to bet that someone is just going to make a railway company if this idea gets implemented.
Wait you mean like... a clan/group that specializes in rail road construction?

That's a given. What I would really like to see is competition between rail companies, almost like a simulated Transport Tycoon with trains. It would be a lot simpler than that game, but it would provide us with some interesting economic situations.

errrgh... well then it's a give in that there will have be a form of economy.
Other wise a rail company is just a bunch of guys who will build a rail road track if you supply them... which is still costly and they get nothing out of it.
I really don't want an economy either cause if one does pop up... It'll probably involve diamonds.
Cause gold sucks.

In the same vein as a railway company, there could be something similar with airships. I could just see a group of talented crafters getting together and forming a designer airship dealership. :biggrin.gif:
We should definitely have similar transport companies for both forms of transport. Companies that operate ways of trade and transport, who work in conjunction with the government controlling to allow for economic opportunities by way of the trade allowed by the open roads and railways, are a necessity in an epic-length game.
I doubt that the specie used in the economy would be diamond: gold would logically be the currency used by banks and shop-keepers. Either that or we use a bartering system, which is what I will predict will happen.

Hell yeah, I'll make a railroad company. Build ya a rail line for a diamond every 50 rail tiles, haul **** for you for an iron ingot every 50 rail tiles.
Make that 5 diamonds per 50 rail tiles. A diamond is cheap as chips for that kind of bargain. Same goes with the ingots, though they should be 10 per 50 rail tiles.
That, or I really don't if this is sarcasm or serious. After all, the Internet lost all seriousness a long time ago.

Eh, I'm getting my distances messed up. No sarcasm intended.
Fine by me. But yeah, I did well to fix your blunder.
That should end the airship/railway company talk for now. Back to the discussion of airships and trains as something that could be implemented into Survival MP.

@Canadian: Suit yourself. However, you are starting to become obnoxious. Remember that I am a moderator, and I can -- and probably am obligated to deal with increasingly-abusive posts and posters. Besides, you aren't making any argument by posting images to hide yourself and give us a rough approximate of your current feelings. Still, I would like you to troll me for a bit, if only because that would be funny. That is what I am thinking of right now.
Hmm, I''ll look up the video when I feel inclined.
Text snipped for blatant flaming and ignoring of a moderator warning. He actually thought my mother had to help me with what I wrote. He goes beyond troll and flame.
I'll bet you get into a lot of fights because you're so hardcore. I wouldn't want to cross you in a dark alley. Heck, even in a lit alley, I bet that'd be pretty dangerous.
Alright, new addition to the idea:
When the airship is destroyed, it blows up, sending down a number of fiery explosive projectiles depending on its size.
It drops about three quarter of the blocks used to make it, and the player's inside are left with 1 heart and fall to the ground (prevents airships from becoming inherent death-traps).

Just inherent near death traps. I think they should explode violently. Because if there's one thing I like, it's an explosion. Especially an excessive, unnecessary, poorly justified one.

This may be a fad, but I love dragons, so why the heck not?
You know i think some one should design on of these Air ships/boats/trains.
Remeber to keep them small though!
If we have large objects they'll be harder to navigate and use!
Larger ones should be attainable if you have the resources to keep them afloat and moving.
Picture it...
After months of building, the airship lifts off, full of supplies and miners ready to found a new settlement in the desert across the ocean. Armed with ballistae and crossbows, it is prepared to fend off the vicious mobs of the sky, and armoured enough to take a few hits. When the aircraft sets down in the desert, its massive crago bay is unloaded and a camp ringed by ballistae is set up.
large airships would make for epic transports for long-range travel.

you could mobilize a floating island but it would be hard.
I'd vote no for that one. For something to move it has to be an entity or activated block. I don't think entire islands should be activated. The airships discussed in this thread would be converted to entities.
This just wouldn't work. It'd be cool, but it wouldn't work.

Want to take out a sizable chunk of your land-locked rivals? Load an airship with TNT and dive straight into the heart of their town/city/village.
Of course, this could also lead to some very interesting and creative countermeasures... 8-)
And should look something like this.
