I'm currently working on a massive base, by my standards, in creative mode that is suppose to act as a hub for a fun survival mode. I really like the idea of large biomes but when Me and my cousin played last we spent ages traveling the ocean looking for more land. I think we both traveled 5000-10000 blocks in different directions and found only islands. of course, now I added the Better dungeons mod and battle towers so there are many things to do in what use to be just emptiness. Which brings us to the base:
The idea is that its kind of like a terminal and a wizards tower combined. the base of the tower has 8 powered rail tracks that take you to a large facility housing basic needs, one for cows, sheep, chickens, farm, etc. and 3 of them lead out into the wilderness in different directions. The tower itself will house a mass compact storage unit that I saw on Reddit, a bunkhouse, a general crafting area (anvil, enchanting, etc.) and the very top of the tower will house little gateways to each respective biome using pressure plates and command blocks.
Now, the best part of my ideas was going to be the coolest feature and I had it all planned out but I didn't know it wasn't possible... I wanted to make a gateway (like the others) that would teleport you to a random coordinate ANYWHERE in the world. (I've been watching a lot of Survivor man lately and that's what true survival is all about. being lost in the wilderness and trying to find your way home. )
If anyone knows of a mod that can do this, or could make one I would be eternally grateful. I saw there are a few bukkit plugins for that but I don't really understand all of that. Me and my cousin play on a single player game I open to LAN whenever he visits (which is fairly frequently) and we use Mods. I don't know what the difference is between mods or plugins, but I've tried sticking the pluggin in the folder with the mods and apparently that isn't how you do it lol.
I don't know what kind of information is needed, but we play on 1.6.4 and the mods we currently use are:
Balkon's Weapon Mod
Tombstone
Mutant Creatures
Better Dungeons
Battle Towers
Mr. Krayfish's furniture mod
