[WT56] [MoI] - Federal Highway Request

[abstract tendon]

I would like to apply for the federal highway worker title. Thank you.

[alpine rapids]

requesting title for myself

[prime pivot]

Hello there, I would like to apply for the federal highway worker title. I know the rules, I build many blocks of tunnels, bridges and roads in the past 🙂

Also maybe create a thread for HW workers, where we (:) can discuss various issues, situations and solutions for problems at hand.

[fleet lotus]

requesting also 🙂

[silk mantle]

also requesting

[fierce tiger]

Requesting the title

Please, consider including incentives for digging dirt, clay and other blocks as part of the payment law. The jungle east of Unica will require a lot of digging.

[prime pivot]

that will be just boom road

[thorn idol]

Mining payout has been set to 0.25 per block

[marsh summit]

requesting title

[flat compass]

requesting title please

[silk mantle]

is there a depot for depositing stuff or do we need to figure that out

[thorn idol]

You are being paid to mine and remove, no depot for dumping.

[silk mantle]

thats what i figured

[hazy gull]

✌️ Those who will wait too long for the issuance of the title for road construction - write in the game, in Discord in a private message, don't be shy.

[silk mantle]

For east from unica is that going to be a tunnel or should that be dug down all the way

[prime pivot]

Q: what is the clearance of tunnel under water ? - rivers and ocean ?

to be precices - clearance of water blocks between the water level and top tunnel block

[hazy gull]

Regarding the tunnels, I will clarify and give an answer. Please wait.

[prime pivot]

I will test if the ladder building in water still works 😄

pls, help.. what to do ?

I think its because HW workers can work only to y69 maybe ? Anyways, may I apply for the Federal Engineer title ? It will be necessary for the bridges over ocean anyways ye ?

[thorn idol]

what are you trying to build with?

[prime pivot]

I am trying to place adobe ladder so it creates an air buble in the water i can work with and I am not floating

[thorn idol]

thats why, adobe is blocked

[prime pivot]

kk, hewn logs ok ?

[thorn idol]

a hewn ladder should work

[prime pivot]

cool, thx

[thorn idol]

you will need the Engineer title at some point though

[pliant crater]

requesting title too!

[silk mantle]

definatly a dig down problem but that can wait until the initial path is through

[torn prism]

Title please, know how this goes.

[prime pivot]

I would boom it. 100-200 booms and then just shovel it to trucks. count 1 boom per 5 blocks conservatively

[silk mantle]

explosives are new since i last played

for now just digging enough clearance to get carts through so 3 high

rest can be cleared later

though i'm not seeing any payout?

[thorn idol]

pay out is every 5 mins as long as you are working in the central highways district

[hazy gull]

Tunnel: overall height - 8
Internal height - 6

[prime pivot]

wow. 6? i remember that being 5

[hazy gull]

Tunnels need to be lined as well

[prime pivot]

now the water - is it ok that we leave 3 blocks of water above the tunnel here for the water traffic ?

[thorn idol]

I've given you the Engineer title for working on this project

[hazy gull]

You can do it like this: make the water clearance 3 blocks, and on the fourth block, you will have the upper part of the tunnel.

[prime pivot]

if we build a bridge, we need to go from Y80 to Y70, if we build the tunnel 6h with 3 blocks of water, its from 63 to 70 . If we have 5height, as were the ocean tunnels, its 64 to 70.

[hazy gull]

To make a tunnel and then exit to the level of the main road - 70Y - I think it can be handled neatly, without getting too fixated on it.

[prime pivot]

Also question - i looked up when i was tunneling last time and the requirements really were 5blocks for underwater tunnels. What changed so its 6 now? Is there a new big vehicle which needs the space , or ?

[hazy gull]

Height - 8. According to the law, don't worry 🙂

[silk mantle]

same as well if thats an option

[clear goblet]

I have read the rules and request the title please

[next berry]

Have read the rules, requesting title , thx

[scarlet igloo]

I have read the rules and request the title

[jolly fern]

I'd like to apply for the title, I read the rules.

[limpid lantern]

Have read the rules, requesting title 🙂

[low canopy]

Read the rules, requesting title as a miner/escavator for my desert road!

[wicked steeple]

I agree with the rules and request a title, as well as the title of federal engineer, to be able to build bridges and laser towers.

[sacred shale]

I read the them rules and i understand them. Could I have the road worker title?

[hazy gull]

[MoI] If you have any questions about bridge laying and have difficulties making a decision, contact me, I will help as much as I can. No problem.

[thorn idol]

What is the restriction that needs the engineer title?

[gentle flower]

I could not place adobe block in the buffer zone

[wicked steeple]

@gentle floweryou not need engineer for it

[hazy gull]

Engineers were only given to those who needed to build bridges and tunnels, supposedly.

[thorn idol]

adobe can't be used on the highways

[silk mantle]

I tried the same place with mortared stone and had the same issue

[gentle flower]

Buffer zone

The result of what your saying a substantial amount of people will have to use stockpiles of dirt to connect existing infrastructure to highway

[silk mantle]

but i was also able to build stuff in buffer in a different spot so idk

[silk mantle]

bumping this request

[thorn idol]

unless the y level is above 77 then mortared stone shouldn't be blocked

ocean bridges are a little way off yet

[silk mantle]

oof

[tender moat]

Requesting the title

[uncut cipher]

I've read the rules looking forward to build. Can I have the road worker title as well please?

[wicked steeple]

@hazy gull builded very basic dock, spent 525 Hewn logs

[hazy gull]

I think you're more experienced in this regard. Make it look nice 🙂

[gentle flower]

Seperate from my buffer issue earlier: must the buffer be at 70 or may i begin a ramp in the buffer

[hazy gull]

You can start with just a stone road, but then make it completely

[gentle flower]

Can I ramp up or down in the buffer or must it be flat

[hazy gull]

You need to act according to the plan and not ignore it. It is best to do everything as correctly as possible at first, so that you can make minimal corrections later.

[gentle flower]

So can I or can I not plan on being able to have ramp place in the buffer zone

Looking at the park city connection road height of 78 so I need to figure out 32 tiles of ramp distance to give you an idea of why im asking

[hazy gull]

It's temporary for convenience, but then it needs to be done properly

[torn prism]

I'd like to fix the bridge near where I stay that goes over the water to its proper height but I need federal engineer for such things.

[hazy gull]

[MoI] Important announcement for federal engineers: In 2 hours I will start inspecting bridges (as a priority) for their construction according to requirements. If there are violations, the title of federal engineer will be revoked.

To work more effectively, we will approach this issue more radically. Sorry about that. You receive money, but you do not want to do quality work. That won't do.

[hazy gull]

I have temporarily given you the title FE for the reconstruction of the bridge (at your request), please write to me when the work is completed. Thank you.

[misty wharf]

HI. I would like to apply for the federal highway worker title. Thank you.

[distant ether]

HI. I would like to apply for the federal highway worker title. Thank you.

[lofty pumice]

I would like to apply for the title please. I have read and agree

[hazy gull]

@torn prism are you here?

The bridge is made according to this design, with side walls made of building stone added for the railings, so as not to fall into the river.

[pliant crater]

the roads of the 15 wide highway is build, the other sides and buffer isnt done yet

[hazy gull]

Is it correct that in the middle of the road you have a stone road, five tiles wide?

[pliant crater]

yes, i did the claim tool and measured accordingly

[hazy gull]

@pliant crater

Let's figure out once again what title you need?

1. Road worker, just building roads

2. Federal Engineer, who builds - bridges, tunnels

[pliant crater]

can i do both? i can build tunnels and bridges too.

i roughly know the x y z size of the tunnel needed to be dug out

[hazy gull]

I gave you the title FE, but! It is necessary to build with quality while following the requirements. I will check periodically, and for any violations - I will not spend time on redoing it. The title will simply be taken away, that's all. So please do it properly!

[pliant crater]

okay! let me get some mortared stone make it look good

[hazy gull]

Everything is freely available in stores. Please buy it 🙂

[thorn idol]

For clarification on titles
National Highways Worker can build roads, tunnels and bridges at the standard highways hight of 70
Federal Engineer is only needed for bridges over ocean and locations where the standard road hight of 70 can not be achieved such as going under or over a river.

@abstract tendon Please remove the excess mortared stone from this bridge, it should only be a 5 wide stone road with a single mortared stone wall at this stage.

@silk mantle Please remove the excess mortared stone from this bridge, it should only be a 5 wide stone road with a single mortared stone wall at this stage.

@minor kestrel Please remove the excess mortared stone from this location 680,822, it should only be a 5 wide stone road at this time.

Titles will be revoked should the above examples are not corrected.

[quartz shadow]

Can I get the highway worker title so I can add to the road too? 🙂 In-game name Shoop de Boop. We're a little bit stuck to the far east of Unica and it would be great to extend the road up to us 🙂

[hazy gull]

[MoI] Dear players! Once again, we are addressing the issue of road (bridge, tunnel) construction. At the moment, the width of the road should be 5 tiles (made of stone road). Do not make buffers from building stone! Leave the buffer made of natural stone, soil, and clay. Ignoring this message will result in penalties for construction errors (which we would very much like to avoid). Thank you for your understanding!

When you review it again, please put a 'reaction' (eyes) under the screenshot. 👀

[prime pivot]

Yo Kast.. I am at this point waiting for iron tools... they shall be avail. soon.

Can I get the highway worker title? Stephen in game!

[ripe fjord]

@dapper steppe

[dapper steppe]

hello

[thorn idol]

I've given you the title, just a few rules to read at the top of this thread.

[grand cedar]

I would like to apply for the federal highway worker title. I understand and align with the proposed guilines this cycle Thank you.

[silk mantle]

Rather frustrating but acknowledged I'll do it sometime tonight. For the record the diagram gives a distinct impression there should not be voids in the shoulder. But ultimately I was just following the pattern everyone else seemed to be using.

[silk mantle]

The girth reduction surgery has been completed

How much of a terrain height difference before a railing called for?

[abstract tendon]

Hey,

I do recognize the clarifications of the MoI and will definitely follow them in further construction. But in case of this bridge I disagree with the request for changes.

The initial post with rules do not make any statements about the buffer between the road and the railing. The road layout does also not make any statements about bridges or buffers, the design does not include any railings.
The wishes of the MoI were communicated that is true, but after the bridge was functionally completed and in use.

Therefore I do not agree that the bridge violates any of the posted rules.

Of course the MoI does have full jurisdiction about the federal bridges so feel free to have it modified by anybody in any way you see fit. But I do not see the responsibility to do so myself.

Tbh since the criticism boils down to it being too big and basically already being the size of the next phase, I just don’t think it makes sense to deconstruct it now to just rebuild it next phase anyways.
There is a lot more tunnel work to do where my time is spent better.

[silk mantle]

I tend to agree

and also wish to observe that one of the reasons these bridges where build like this is they were done before stone road was properly coming out to be placed

[hazy gull]

Hi, let's just close this topic already, otherwise it can go on endlessly. The fact is: the construction does not meet the requirements (the plan), the fact that you first built a road from construction stone and then a road appeared is not the designer's problem, but your own initiative, for which you received money unfairly and do not want to correct the mistakes, and on top of that, if you have any doubts about correctness, you could ask me or in the Discord chat—which you did not do. Accordingly, because of your self-initiative, these investigations are going on now.

[abstract tendon]

okay

[thorn idol]

Thank you both for the feedback and sorry for any confusion that there may have been as well.
Firstly I just wanted to go over some of the reasoning for ensuring that the design is stuck to, at this early stage when budgets are/were low its governments responsibility to make sure they are used reasonably. In this case a considerable amount of mortared stone was placed which has seen government funds paid out for the work.
Later on when this part of the road needs upgrading it will punish who ever has to remove the surface mortared stone while the original payment only benefits the original worker.
We also need every part of the highway to set an example to everyone else working on the highway so that these overspends don't happen more often.

In the case of DrRush, Thank you for resolving your part, it is appreciated in working towards the above points.

For Radicals I can see that there is clearly a lot more work involved so if we can instead try and mitigate the above points and just try to make sure we follow theses points. It would therefore be helpful if you take responsibility for this section when asphalt comes out so that other players don't have to bear that cost.
We do appreciate that this section will all be put to good use once we move to asphalt and that your time would be better spent.

[abstract tendon]

I am very willing to replace it with asphalt when it becomes available. I actually built the bridge in mind with it being compatible with the later road width so you just have to replace the 8 lanes of mortared stone accordingly and with no further construction around the bridge. If budgetary reasons are the main driver for this conflict i am offering to return the received payment of the additional buffer stones to the infrastructure fond.

[thorn idol]

In this case the budget will balance its self out once we move to asphalt and it hasn't been adversely hit, no need to repay on this occasion or take action to change the bridge at this time.

[abstract tendon]

okay cool thank you.

[sudden cedar]

HI. I would like to apply for the federal highway worker title. Thank you

[modest sail]

I would like the Highway worker title too, thanks !

[onyx topaz]

Can I get the road worker title please. I’ve read the rules

[thorn idol]

@uncut cipher Just pointing out the requirement for federal highways at the moment is to have stone in the centre of the district, not at the side like this. If you could make sure to follow the design for future building.

[shut bolt]

Hi, I wanna make a rake from my house to acceses the other road with ease

There

[hazy gull]

Do you need a road worker title for this? You can read the rules and requirements and get the title.

[hazy gull]

Obstacles cannot be placed on a federal road. The road must be built according to strict requirements, including the height.

[urban parrot]

I have read the rules and apply for the title

[silk mantle]

I'd like to petition for an increase in the digging payout even if that comes with a reduction in the payout for the roads.

[silk mantle]

At current market pricing of 1.5 for roads and .1 for not dirt diggables. And before considering calorie, haulage, storage, or tool repairs.

'Free' placing road is $1.25 + 0 = $1.25 for roughly 1/3 of the work.

Single digging is $1.50 + 0.10-0.40 = $1.90 max for the 'default'

A basic 3 tall tunnel is $2.25 + 0.40-1.60 = $3.85 max for roughly 3 times the work.

300% more work =/= 200% payout best case

Digging clay its ~170% of the payout for 400% the work

and I'd argue the tunnels are way important thing to get done compared to the paving

[alpine rapids]

the clay part will get additional motivation once bricks are out

[silk mantle]

see i've been stockpiling the clay in anticpation of that

but thats a cost in itself

[uncut cipher]

what if if we change the plan here from a bridge to couple of ports on each side? @ near "zen mode store"

[silk mantle]

@uncut cipheryour image didn't load

[uncut cipher]

@silk mantle

cant log in to server atm. but here we have a fed highway. and at the south landing right after the landing there is a beautiful river as well. so i thught it would be both more realistic and pretty to build two ports to cross the sea and the a med size bridge on south to cross the river there instead of a massive concrete monster to cross both.

[hazy gull]

That's a great idea, and it can be approved 👍

@thorn idol Please pay attention

[prime pivot]

In that case, lets build a tunnel ! 😄

but I am afraid nobody can actually change the layout of fed HW... at least it was not possible in the past. We had to adhere to the layout no matter what 🙁

[hazy gull]

If you don't follow the positivity, there will be chaos. So don't be afraid, little one, everything will be fine 🙂

[clever sphinx]

Hi there! I dont know if it's still avaliable, but I'd like to apply for the federal highway worker title if possible. Thanks!

The bridge location can't be changed as its a fixed district, nothing wrong with setting up ports though. Just keep in mind that a bridge will be built there.

Requesting engineer title, Dr.Rush ingame

[pliant crater]

you want me to build the bridge at south Unica?

there is an underground tunnel there

[hazy gull]

[MoI] - Due to the inactivity of the work of Federal engineers, the old engineers will be reset and new FEs will be put in their place. Applications can also be sent to Discord in the corresponding topic.

https://tenor.com/view/bridge-lights-city-lights-bay-bridge-keep-building-bridges-gif-15344509

[silk mantle]

Is this not the correct topic to reqest the role then?

[hazy gull]

This was written with the purpose of being published not only in this section. The title was given to you.

[silk mantle]

o/

Whats needed where currently then

[hazy gull]

I will now write the nicknames of federal engineers who can be contacted regarding the construction of bridges and tunnels.

Dinq, Dr.Rush, Labubu Otto

I think the limit of engineers will be 10 people (not including me, for monitoring and adjusting the constructions). ...

[uncut cipher]

sorry im not very good with discord. can you give me the link to the post where the fed engi reqs are written?

[hazy gull]

🌉 @wicked steeple @silk mantle @pliant crater If there are doubts about the correctness, the height - write to me in the game or DM. I'll come in - take a look. We work with quality!

[hazy gull]

Here, right at the very beginning, where the heading of this section is.

[pliant crater]

okay!

[hazy gull]

A huge request for Federal Engineer - to facilitate the construction of bridges and tunnels at the request of the residents (one at a time, of course).

Reminder: when opening asphalt, do not rush to put it into operation; please wait for the complete template on how to properly lay the road surface! Thank you!

Dinq, Dr.Rush, Labubu Otto

[silk mantle]

When can oceanic bridges be started, and whats the logistics of ordering special materials for aesthetics on said large bridges

[hazy gull]

Do you mean allocating a budget for such buildings?

[silk mantle]

yes

[hazy gull]

I would make purchases of materials for construction. I put this issue up for discussion.

[uncut cipher]

thanks. in that case id like to apply for becoming a fed engi please

[silk mantle]

okay thanks

[hazy gull]

Bridges are usually built on the basis of the law on highway payment. It provides for payment for asphalt, t2, t3, t4

@wicked steeple @silk mantle @pliant crater

I like to ask for bridge builders to propose designs as we sometimes get some quite nice ones.

You can suggest your ideas for decorating the bridges, maybe you have your own designer perspective.

[prime pivot]

its not inactivity--but for bridges we need T3 mats - concrete/rolled steel and such. Its not available.
Same applied for tunnels.

(under ocean)

I plan to make bridges and tunnels, but I am waiting for several things to happen:

1. I need stampmill and in general T2 mininig equipment
2. cement, concrete
3. steel tools
4. steam trucks to actually haul cargo from the dig sites in reasonable amounts and speed
5. boom sticks

[silk mantle]

noted thats much easier than than trying to calculate material costs

[hazy gull]

Inaction is characterized by the fact that people ask for titles, while the current FEs build nothing. This is why there was a reset, so that there wouldn't be too many FEs.

[hazy gull]

Regarding the calculation of payments, this is no longer my competence, I do not deal with this.

[silk mantle]

I'm wanting to do the bridge at 0, 250; Currently have a suspension bridge styled somewhere between the Golden Gate and Brooklen Bridge. My main concern in design is gonna be figuring out a good way to do the main cables

might have to pivot to a different cable bridge style if the curve is too hard to make

[prime pivot]

I was given the title not to build bridge (at this stage of the game) but to build the tunnel south of Unica, and I was working on it every day, within limits of my whole gaming time.

Before T3 materials, FEs can build only tunnels in HW zones (as you cannot go below y69 with just HW worker.) however I am not sure if FE is needed to build HW bridges over rivers - meaning if there is any height limit for their work inland.

[prime pivot]

you can use the rolled steel blocks for the main cable and pipes for the vertical cables. Looks dope.

[hazy gull]

What do you want me to say right now?

[prime pivot]

btw..

[hazy gull]

Okay, the logical question is, how will water transport pass under it?

[prime pivot]

its the idea..

May I ask for the FE title again to continue works on the Unica south tunnel ?

[hazy gull]

give u title FE

🌉 @Dinq @DrRush @Otto @prime pivot If there are doubts about the correctness, the height - write to me in the game or DM. I'll come in - take a look. We work with quality!

[hazy gull]

Many thanks to everyone for the cooperation. I resigned voluntarily for a number of reasons: there is no control over the repair work, and most importantly, no punishment for violators. "After all, people are human, everyone can make mistakes," ignoring the construction requirements. I am not satisfied with this. I wish you luck in further "proper" construction of roads, tunnels, and bridges.

[coarse kestrel]

Hello, i've read the rules and would like to have the title!

[thorn idol]

@vital sinew For information: A large part of the federal highways has been built wrong, please note that the stone road should have been in the middle of the district.

[hazy gull]

@sleek oar

[vital sinew]

Hello!

I just wanted to make a connection between The Good Place and Foxville while I still had the time and resources...

Perhaps I misunderstood the complaint.

[thorn idol]

Problem with that is someone else will have to fix it and get charged for picking up the stone roads once we move to asphalt.

Not saying you need to fix it, this is more for awareness that the work wasn't done per the design.

[vital sinew]

Just to clarify, are you referring to the road I built in the buffer zone?

[thorn idol]

its partly in the buffer zone, that bit doesnt get paid for placement though. the road should have been in the center of the district

[hazy gull]

So one of the violators has been found, the one who is building the road not according to the plan =)))

[vital sinew]

Okay I guess I found info

So the road needs to be in the center, 5 tiles width?

[thorn idol]

in this case it would be 4 wide as its a 10 wide highway section.

[vital sinew]

Got it

Can I compensate it somehow?

[thorn idol]

Asphalt comes out next week, if you are still going to be working on the roads then it could be fixed as part of that work.

[vital sinew]

My bad, I didn't see that when I applied for the role.

[hazy gull]

Figure out for yourselves what’s what, I have already left the position.

[vital sinew]

I've fixed almost everything; I'm not ready to start digging new tunnels just yet...

[thorn idol]

Thats fine, its a big section to work on

[thorn idol]

@onyx topaz Just a reminder that highways should be build to 4 or 5 wide stone road at this time, please re check the construction requirements. 7 wide in this location is wrong so please remove the excess road on this occasion.

[molten jewel]

@thorn idol Requesting the title to help building the federal network

[spring chasm]

Hello, I have read the rules and I undestand them, and I would like the title please

[molten jewel]

So question regarding tunnels and since most of them are a mess right now;
It says it needs to be 8 high and internal has to be 6 high, but then it also says 3x3 and 12x6? This is really confusing.
Also does it just mean the top layer of the tunnel or does it have to be fully encased?

[obsidian plume]

^in addition to that, should the material be t2 or t3? Noticed no payment is set for t3 materials

[molten jewel]

Also according to rules the tunnels have to be 8 high, this example is only 7 high. Does this count as a tunnel and has the top layer on 7 has to be removed and put stone on height 8 instead? If I remove the top layer its not considered a tunnel anymore, is it?

[silk mantle]

there is a certain level of phases being involved here

[molten jewel]

What do you mean?

[silk mantle]

tl;dr early tunnels are small and get expanded later when equipment comes out to dig them, the priority being on getting people connected

miners just mining everything out but the dirt not withstanding

[molten jewel]

I mean I did understand that, yet there had been complaints filed about those roads already and trying to fix them doesnt really help if the instructions there are not clear and not being explained properly. Road width and everything is fine, but when it comes to something like a tunnel in question, I rather have the information I need before its becoming more of a mess

[silk mantle]

fair enough

looking at most of these they just need everything above them shaved off imo

[molten jewel]

Yeah cause going after the instructed height none of them actually count as a tunnel - but then they are designed like a tunnel as of right now 😄

Its just extremly confusing

[thorn idol]

We will probably go with bricks, no pay out yet though.

[thorn idol]

Tunnels will need to have an internal height of 6, so if we mine out 7 so that a layer can be put in for lining them. Width will need to either be 10 or 15 depending on the size of the road at that location.

The 8 comes from the road layer if you count everything that's being mined out.

[molten jewel]

I see so general height of 6 for the internal got ya

[molten jewel]

Fully surrounded or just the top layer stone/brick?

[thorn idol]

While we may not do this design this should give you an idea of what we like to do for tunnel lining and hopefully answer the question. 🙂

[molten jewel]

Gotcha 😄

[thorn idol]

At the very least we would aim for brick lining due to its slim wall design.

[molten jewel]

Ill get on it tomorrow then

[wicked steeple]

Quick question PM. This area is teh highway between the two federal farm plots I have been looking at. I had to raise them up to the correct height. Because of that, the entire 20 wide is clear. I was wondering if i could use garden gravel in the buffer instead of dirt to give the area a bit more texture. Im not asking for payment. It wouldnt cost me much as theres a local source of garden gravel I can get.

I think we need to adress this

guys, DO NOT BUILD anything BIG over here.. there will be a bridge with long acess ramps. 5 wide stone access road is fine for now

Thank you, the builder for this section has been contacted.

I'd like the National Highways Worker title so that I can build some roads near my place!
