I've been working on a castle idea and started working on it about 3-4 weeks ago. Been working on it off and on, and quite pleased what I got done so far.
Please note, I am a college student, and I have a life and a g/f, so I'm not wasting that much time of my life playing the game.
I'm doing this on my own server with a few friends, but I've requested little help from them. Mostly the clearing for the base and the use of their excess materials.
The server uses CraftBukkit with, what many people would say "TOO MANY PLUGINS!" It runs just fine. (I use Hosted Game Server)
The size of the castle is done by towny. 5x4 (will expand to 5x5 due to my own mistake) plot area with config setting set to 32x32 block area (default being 16x16 I believe).
The wiring would be tricky if I set a whole wall to one pressure-pad/button. So everything will be done in sections. Roughly every 30 blocks (one extender per floor).
Yes, I know this is overkill, actually thought of it when I heard about the dispensers, not a copy of the overkill video with the cake, but it did show a good example to my friends the idea of my defenses.
My friends and I don't fight, so this whole idea may seem useless, I on the other hand want to do something large, so this is my first attempt at something big.
First Stage: Clearing and flattening base. Done.
Second Stage: Walls and Walkway. In Progress.
Third Stage: Wiring dispensers. (There's so many!!!).
- Gate(s) and Drawbridge(s) will be placed where Wiring accepts without conflicts.
Fourth Stage: Setting up Canons.
Fifth Stage: Setting up on-activation lava walls (Flaming arrows is the idea.) (Might use MagnetBlock Plugin)
Sixth Stage: Undecided at this time. Walls should be armed and ready. Just got to decide what to do inside.
Since I use photobucket, have for many years, I've just set up a simple album. I'll try to keep things organized.
Spider Farming. Takes a long time, usually leave my game idling while doing other stuff. Sometimes friends do this for me and make the dispensers for me as well. I really need to redesign this, since drops touching cacti removes them.
Section of the first wall:
View from an angle
Extending up and out
Work on some of the circuitry. A trial attempt. (Removed circuitry later when I found out there was a corner issue.
Night views of the back
Night views of the front
Day view of the front
Beginning of the walk ways
Corner of the walk way
Paths Night
Corner and Paths day
Four corners done with paths
Extending the first wall all the way to the end.
First wall completed (as thought I did...)
Beginning second wall
At this point, I realized that the towny plots I set up was 5x5, when it was actually 5x4. I felt like an idiot. Currently clearing out and putting down a cobble base. Then got to extend the walkways and rebuild the corners. At least I didn't fill in the mote with water just yet.
If anyone wants a video of what I have done, I don't mind. Comments and criticism would be great!
Yes it is, I've spent a few hours a day standing at a spider spawn harvester to get the string needed (with help from my friends.
If you want pics of the spider farm, I have no problem. I will not allow those who I do not know in RL join my server though. I've set precautions in case the IP got out.
I've used up all the dispensers I made on the first wall and part of the corner. I think I may have 20-30 left in one of my chests.
I will say this, the tombstone plugin has saved me more than once when I fell off the walkways and the top part of the walls while working.

Yo college boy that's "well-defended". There ain't no such word as defenced.
Sorry for making up words. I'll refer to the ol' MS Word next time I decide to make something looking like COMP II or so.
