So,
I've spent quite a while creating a nether hub trainstation to take you all to the towns popping up around!
HOWEVER, this is made pretty much irrellevant given that warps are quicker and cheaper. What I propose is that warps are made to cost a small amount. Similar to the way the /home command works.
Before you all go and complain about the idea, hear me out.
In game money is used to save your time. From buying blocks to teleporting, it is all designed to save you time (even buying land to an extent). This means that money's true value is time (time is money and all that).
My proposal is that warping to spawn (/spawn or /warp spawn) will cost $3 (less than the /home command). This is a cost to cover the time you would spend otherwise travelling there.
Other warps would cost $6, (more than the /home command). This is because they are more 'convenience' warps as upposed to spawn, which is a server vital warp.
Incase you were wondering, the rail service to towns takes roughly two minutes tops to get to any location. Current travel times for the rails (not including the walking to the rails) are:
ChillVille - 1m 30s
CobbleTown - 1m 45s
The Flotilla - 2m 35s
Once the town creation slows down, it is possible that some of the larger/more impressive bases may be also made into tunnel destinations.
Hope you like the idea!
