I have seen a lot of suggestions and I think that the best way to do town borders would be to have guards patrol the town border. This would make the border well defined, and would add a cool element to it, in that it would be like the town is defending from monsters. The problem is, notch said he wanted the towns to be well pronounced and seen from afar, well to solve this there would be atleast one big tower per town. This would make the town visible.
Thoughts?
I'll say it again. When you're out of a town, the buildings stop. Why does anyone need any other form of notification? :mellow.gif:
I'm not really sure what you mean by "When you're out of a town, the buildings stop.", but i think you mean that would be the town borders by itself. The problem with this is Notch said himself that towns need to be noticeable from afar, and that the town border's can't be indestructible objects. The problem with what you said is that, one, it is not noticeable from afar, (what if there are trees in the way?) and two, notch also said that borders have to be defined regions because players will be able to claim land in 1.8. So your idea won't work, sorry :sad.gif:
uhg what is with all this YORU GOING TO NOTICE THE TOWN PERIOD. there are no other buildings in minecraft so when you see a town you will now ITS A TOWN and if there has to be some sort of notice I woudl sugest a large watchtower in the middle of the town with torchs on the top to act like a giant signal light you will definatly notice it
