That's an absurd scale, a station of that size would require a map larger than the limits that are imposed.

Not really smokey, cuz we aid have only 1 head train and one passenger car..with that would be a platform and station building to the side.

That implies a world of that size is possible, which it isn't.

Actually, 1magc1 height isn't a problem...because we can always dig down..length is the problem only if we were gamma make 3+ cars...if we make 3, we'll have to curve the tracks to fit it

so if length is the primary issue, we make that 1024 (max).. we need a hight of at least 126 for the station roof and a width of 256 for 2 tracks + platform..

1mgc1, the height they can make just like main, we can dig down 20-30 blocks for safety and the with 150??? The tracks aren't that thick

Goldenhart, main is only 64 blocks tall. Also I just said 1024 is impossible, twice.

I believe 1024 is possible but not advisable. :-P

I think fragmer conducted tests with worlds even bigger than that but Minecraft Classic starts bugging out horribly for them.

the track alone is 73 wide, add a platform of equal width, and ur almost at 150..
if we cant do 1024 length, we will have to go for:

512 x, 256 y and 128 z

Like 1mgc1 sed, the train will be 90 or so, plus the station building will be 10-20 blocks higher than that

If you gen a world with any of the dimensions set at 1024 you will not be able to build in it. Any increment below that should work, including anything between 512 and 1024 but I have never tested that personally

increments between 512 and 1024?
can u give an xample?

Re: Train station application

World dimensions need to be powers of two - (starting arbitrarily at 32 :3) 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 and 1024.

You can also try multiples of 16 but every multiple of 16 that isn't a power of two will lead to graphical glitches.

600/16 = 37.5
115/16 = 7.1875

If your generation ends up running the country, we're seriously fucked.
