I thought id share my plan process with my island im building.

so before i go on aboput the sections check out the image.



So far ive been flattening sections of land and walling of each level, filling in rivers. I feel so far, i have 60% finished.

The castle district

firstly built to disguise the natural 9 floor mob trap i have, it will be the tallest building and greatest feature of the island. im still yet to decide my style but have drawn up a rough idea. the river flowing from the castle district to the farm district is still to be filled in.

The Farm District

probaly the next thing i shall be working on to stop buying food from the cake shop. im looking into creating cow sheds and chicken huts sheep fields ect. ill probably be building a windmill and silos within the area to give that greater look.

The villager city

This will be one of the main features of this island, castle walls will be surrounding the districts to keep golems within there zones. But this are will be the city housing for testifactes with high quality medieval housing. keeping the island looking alive.

The Boat Yard

The boat yard is where is gonna be attached to the docks, and will be where cranes and blocks will be held, including a ship that is being half built. giving a live feel the docks.

The Docks

This is where i will be building another one of my large ships plus smaller ones. heres one i did on a server i still run.


The plan is to create a portal on the large boat like an entrance to my island. the nether will have a track leading to the nearest teleport on the snowy island.

The player Housing

These will built by myself i think. just so i can keep the same feel around, but will be available to players to use and edit on the inside.

The Mine

Again being near the docks and yard. a crane hoisting out ore from the deepmine. the plan is to have a minecart system going round and deep underground like a rollercoaster ride with alot of redstone action going on. should be fun to make.


ill be adding more to this later

Looks like an awesome and huge project! Can't wait to see it develop! Will this all be in medieval style? Will the player housing be open for other builders or are you wanting to build it up yourself?

Gate house!

this is proably the first completed building on my island lol. its only means is to control villagers movement and access to the walls or city. and look good...



there is 3 areas in which i need to make a gate design in order to control villagers and iron golems leaving the area but still be passable by players without the use of a door. under each gate needs to be a 4 deep hole into which the top layer will have string placed allowing carpet to placed on top. this allows players to freely walk on over. but stoping any mobs from so, as they believe the deep hole that they do not wanna fall down into is still there. the reason for this is to stop villagers from moving into other building around the island and keeping them to there own area

heres a map of the area
