It was definitely a lot of work to get it dried out. I picture what it would be like if real life were like minecraft. She's taking on water! .. Oh, no worries, there's a beach! Grab the sand! We're saved!.. lol It makes me realize just how ridiculous minecraft physics are, but it's still a great outlet for your creativity.
I'd love to see this inspire other projects, that's sort of the whole point of sharing it as I work on it. My next step (after a few days of downtime from the 6 hour sand fill marathon) is labeling the frame numbers inside the hull and outlining the walls for the rooms in the hold. I'm not real sure on the interior yet. I'm fairly certain in order to keep the exterior accurately scaled I'm going to have to cut out a couple decks. I was thinking that I may scale down the hangar area some and do some de-duplicating on the rooms. Like three levels of wardrooms and showers might need to be condensed to two levels just to make things fit. I'm hoping I don't have to sacrifice too much but like I said, reality and minecraft are two different things, so I'll get as close as I can.
Edit: Oh yeah, we do have pumps in one of our mods, but it's slow and doesn't work as you think it would. There's also a chance it may start pumping water from the surrounding ocean which i didn't want. So, I got to do it the hard way. Ah well, it's a proper tribute to the Big E to struggle and come through on top, so that's how I look at it
