1.9 suggestion. Runner's roads

I know this is a bit early, but i thought it may be intressting to make this suggestion already so we can plan in advance.

My idea would be to make tunnels or bridges... well some kind of straight, constant road for those who use the warp speed potion.

If you don't know what im talking about, check out this informative video of gamechap:



This potion would pretty much defeat any railroad if a long straight road is provided.
It is a very good way to get about, so we should support it.

I like this, this could potentially replace the railroad on the new map. We could make long strait paths that lead to highly populated cities or monuments of some sort.

love the idea it wold be simple to use colors to tell you to turn or where your going and we can just put some admin shops along the tunnels if you run out.

So you would run 5k blocks instead of justing using a teleporter?

I used to watch this commentator, the I got SO FUCKING ANNOYED WITH THERE ACCENT
/rage over

I am sure some would. Just for the fact that running fast is fun. And its even more fun when theres nothing interrupting u

For that I think some sort of path in the sky would be best, as long as it looks good. Because however fun running fast may be, it is better if you are running past all sorts of cool landscapes and builds.

As long as World Edit isn't used, then go for it

Out of my experience in making the Acheron Sky Ring, i recomment to use glass for sky roads. They let light reach the ground unaltered so ther are no stupid mile-long shadows covering the land.

I like this idea what is it with you and warps jarvisd you take away al the fun.

But...I can't be afk while doing this. That was the whole point of the railroad to me. If this is created, then it should be out of the way, underground.

Another idea:

warp speed potion+ allowing accileration runes.
Drink the potion and step on a rune. No need to push any key it just shoots you with a thousand miles per minute down the road to the next accileration rune. Would speed up the stuff even more.

Before you get too far into design and whatnot, run some tests around how fast you actually go versus how long it would take to get from place to place, and then compare the ups and downs between the railroad and warps and such.

Here's an idea, someone hunts those 2 down ... And then rips out their vocal chords ...
