/warp horserace Grand Opening Saturday May23! 7pm Brisbane time. Be there! Much Fun

Are there any admins quietly lurking, following this thread? If so, care to weigh in at this point, whether it would be considered to keep the warp chunk loaded in? Let me know privately if you like, the matter will be put to rest.

Aha, this I did not know, would be very handy. Get on sometime with your chunk id plugin and we'll see if there's a quiet chunk to put the warp spawnpad. Actually would have been good to find the chunk borders BEFORE starting the build. And better to lay out the ps stones first as well. See...

Fair point about the mobs. I've never paid for a horse so they're not so valuable to me, but I can understand your concerns. If you guys really think there's potential for your expensive horses to die I'll make the track mob-free. As for the chunk loading thing and /htp, my understanding is...

All good points, well made. But just to clarify: MOBS- Granted there are a few bad spots spawning monsters, mainly the underground areas and around tripwires. I'll be adjusting web fields to sort them out because the low light is intentional. However, I'll also be adjusting fields to...

Nearly done, thanks angussidney for contributing. Some space is ready for other people's ideas, see me in-game and I'll set up a ps field for you. /warp horserace

It's a good kind of hurt ;) For anyone wanting to help, think of a good obstacle to build (BYO materials). When I'm finished the stalls and the basic track layout, I'll post back here and then you can go for gold. Prereqisites: Track will be about 15 blocks wide, horses and riders are not to...

Construction has begun, there's 6 stalls and two toggle switches. One switch can give stalls 3 and 4 a short delay, the other switch can give stalls 5 and 6 a longer delay. So competitors can sort it out for themselves what to do. Redstoning making my brain hurt

Yes, speed and jump height can either be an advantage or a disadvantage, depending on the obstacle. But I want a good mix of both. If a track is deliberately stacked against better horses, that would just be frustrating for people with better horses. That's why I think the handicap system is...

Okay that makes sense. Thanks Camm.

Tonight I tried out the /htp command, I couldn't get it to work. I found a horse out in the wild, tamed it and saddled it. I hit it with an enderpearl and it showed "Horse selected for teleporting". Then I went /home and tried /htp, it showed "Teleporting....." but nothing happened. I tried...

The handicap would be a time delay on the stall opening, maybe toggled on or off for each stall, or some stalls are set delayed permanently. I made some functional stalls offline, complicated for sure but doable. They even have a countdown chime :) I reckon it's better if everyone can use...

That's the tricky part. A horse that jumps 5 blocks would be OP, but maybe it can be a disadvantage on some obstacles. Fast horses might need a handicap based on stats. Time will tell i guess. Nice one! Anyhow I'll be collecting the resources for a while first, please add your comments and...

Hi all, I'm thinking about building a track with jumps and various other obstacles for people to race their horses against each other. With a warp and the /htp command it should be easy to meet up and race. I have some good ideas for obstacles such as jumping over piston walls, dodging...
