If this was in survival multiplayer, it would be awesome to stumble apon a giant dome that has a sign saying:
!!DANGER!!
And some message how it is used for the studying of mobs. Seriously, a pitch black dome, where monsters thrive, it just seems like something straight out of a horror movie.
Edit: Make a room on the entrance that says: Place all valuables here, death is expected during expedition. Then when you open the door, there is an airlock, where you need like 2 or 3 switches to open one door at a time. Then when you go in, its pitch dark except 2 torches where the base is. Then run into the jungle and make a video.
Also, please post a save once you are done, so I can add the room if you won't
You should make an oculus, at the very top, with a floating cover over it so that no light actually goes through. Put some water under it, and drop people into it in MPS.
If they can survive a week, you release them, and they get prize money.

Damn, was about to suggest the exact same idea (down to the word almost).
Also, why not add some ruins in there, just like the original island. The sign could say "Research Site B, Enter at your own risk". If mobs realize they are clones with frog DNA, we are completely screwed (reproducing creepers :SSSS:)
How do you get the planks? Don't tell me Minecraftland just lost a few rainforests worth of trees D:
I really had no clue how I was going to build it, so I decided on going with layers instead of a more accurate spherical approach. The top has the smallest diameter, so it was less tedious and would be the easiest to redo if I didn't like how it was turning out. Now that I am comfortable with the building style, if I make another, it will probably be bottom up.
edit: The planks are from my starting island, pictured in the top left. I chop down about half of it every 2 days, there are enough trees that there are always fully grown trees and saplings.

The last metroid is in captivity... The galaxy is at peace.
2 new pictures in main post. Considering what to do with the open section, either close it off like the rest, to glass it over, or roof + glass... not sure, but leaning towards completely closing it.
Also will be building "safety" structures as well as the gates next.

are you going to try and make some creative automatic killing traps, like drowners that'll all collect into one zone?
Nope, this is in no way supposed to make life easier.

This looks awesome. I kinda had something similar planned, to make a reserve for hunting, but this takes it to the next level. +5 points :smile.gif:

Truely amazing! The only problem is, how will you be able to hunt the mobs when it's pitch black inside?
Thats simple...

Now, all you're missing is a giant mob collector at the bottom.
Can you imagine it? Instead of a sand floor, it'll be a checkerboard floor with every other tile being ahole. And you'll have a whole island collecting gunpowder for you.

Mother of god...
It looks so cool from that view.
