OK, well, gunna have to wake the boy up from his nap and go get Haylee from the bus stop here in a minute. Got a head start on the wall. Hope you jerks like it :)
If anyone wants to keep working on the wall, going to need a lot of wood. When you take down a tree, make sure you knock down all the floating branches (they will disappear on their own, but knocking them down manually gets you more saplings) and replant the saplings so we get more trees than we started with.
I didn't do any of the half-stone pieces yet, and I think we could have some fun making turrets on the corners, but that can wait.
The benefit to the half stones is that you can hang them off the side of the wall so that spiders can't climb over them. I think that method and creating a layer of sand in the wall (spiders can't climb sand) are the only two ways to keep spiders out without making a roof/dome over the whole thing.
ROOD: How hard is it to increase the number of players to 6 or 8? Is it more money? I only ask because I have a couple of close friends that are looking for a build-only-no-griefing-bullshit home to be a part of a community.
