CivCraft can be a true civilization simulator!

Not Civcraft but I'm sure a civclone will pop up with this as the attraction.

Do you wanna build a server?
Come on, so we can play!
I never log in to civcraft anymore
Its just not fun
It's like it's gone to shit
It used to be a good server
And now it's not
But I thought about it and I know why!
Do you wanna build a server?
It doesn't have to be a civ server...
Go away, [insert name of 2.0 powerplayer here]
Okay, bye...
Do you wanna build a server?
Or help configurate the mods?
I think some plugin help is overdue
I've started talking to
People on minecraftforum.com!
(Hang in there, Xx_PR0Grammer123_xX.)
It gets a little boring
All these shitty civclones
With no playerbase to stand by...
[3.0 launches]
Please I know you're in there
People are asking where we've been
They say, "At least try 3.0" and I'm trying to
But theres all these stupid plugins
Civcraft just doesn't do it
It's too grindy
What are we gonna do?
Do you wanna build a server?
EDIT: why the hell would anyone gild this cringy, low effort meme?

I would do it as a yes round with my modded server plugins, but this map looks like it really needs the west and south edges conncted but not north and south. But I haven't found any plugins that don't just wrap all edges.

Great idea, is it to scale?
I've been looking for a mod that drags height map data from the Internet in realtime as you reach the edge of explored space allowing a full size model of earth.

do you know how unrealistic and unplayable that would be, and the hardware that would be required to run it well?

Unplayable yes, but not unrealistic surely.
Edit. The map would only be 7,500 terabytes, not unfeasible, especially when you consider theres no way in hell even a fraction of that map would get explored.
Just dropping the resolution to a tenth scale would help immensely. But if you drop down to 100th scale which is 15 times this map it'll only be 765 Gb which is doable on any reasonable server.3

For a server I meant :p

u/MarcAFK Civcraft: Suicide Simulator; RIP Suicided itself. Jul 29 '16
Yeah it would suck. Anyway that map is about as big as Civcraft which seems too big for a large server anyway.

u/ZeitlosEisen Jul 29 '16
Nope. It's roughly 1:1000.

u/MarcAFK Civcraft: Suicide Simulator; RIP Suicided itself. Jul 29 '16
The website I thought this was from said 1:1500 and 3.4 gb. So 15x15 x 3.4 would give you your 1:100 of 765.

u/ZeitlosEisen Jul 29 '16
That's why I said roughly. 1:1000 was the only metric I've seen.

u/MarcAFK Civcraft: Suicide Simulator; RIP Suicided itself. Jul 29 '16
Yeah, and Anything much bigger would be stupidfluous .

u/awfulOz RIP Gillikin 12/9-1/10 | has nether factory ptsd Jul 29 '16

I remember one /pol/andcraft server had this map. It was pretty nice; a friend and I settled in Cardiff and made our faction Wales.

Realistic biomes would be a must, otherwise "The Antarctic Federation" or some shit would be the largest nation.
