From it&#8217;s start to now, I don&#8217;t know how many people have helped me with this project. And I&#8217;m no where near done yet.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been on pretty much all day, working on this as long as I can. Sometimes getting bored, sometimes feeling energetic to want to keep going, and even&#8230; sometimes regretting that I signed up for this(all because I have nothing else to do with my life).<br \/>\nAnd also, constantly having to tell people &#8220;Yes, I won the bid&#8221; and &#8220;it&#8217;s going to Whitechapel&#8221;, and having to say for people who ask &#8216;You going to do more exits?&#8221;, I say &#8220;That&#8217;s up to frozen&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>But there was a section where I was ready to just give up. It was near the halfway point of the build. Going by the plan, frozen wanted a ridiculously-wide left curve. I thought, there&#8217;s no fucking way I could do this!<br \/>\nEnter &#8216;RedBear47&#8217;, a really nice guy, and has been my savior for most of this project. He&#8217;s been hanging out on the server, a bit North of my island, minding his own business and hardly saying anything. But lately, I believe I loosened him up to be more talkative on the server (and even have his oldest son come on the server).<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s been helping me with difficult angles, yet I&#8217;m being given the credit. Of course, that&#8217;s not fair on Red as he&#8217;s done all the heavy planning. This is the issue with me and having help from others. They think <em>I<\/em> did it, when I have to give credit to the people that <strong>actually<\/strong> did it. It also feels a bit depressing. I should be able to build anything I put my mind to, yet I keep relying on others&#8230; :\/<\/p>\n<p>This came really true today, when the road entered a Taiga Hills biome. It was night, and I&#8217;m flying through this area of how to plan the road to snake through. I had the Taiga Line with a visible station close by. I decide to sleep on it, thinking all I need to do is just clear out trees, while also keeping the road hidden from the station.<br \/>\nThe next day, I still didn&#8217;t know how to work with it. Had to get help, and we went with just taking the road West.<br \/>\nBut that move costed an even harsher area I had to work with (which I&#8217;m still working on).<\/p>\n<p>RL&#8217;s railroad to the left of me, and hills all fucking over the place. There were only a few places I could squeeze the road through. Yet both, I can only get one road through. Thankfully, RedBear popped up later to help me plan out <em>this<\/em> route.<br \/>\nThis had the road going in a diagonal hard right to avoid RL&#8217;s railroad, and a hill directly infront of the road. Then diagonal and splitting apart to pass two large hills, to finally continue heading West toward hopefully less inhospitable terrain.<\/p>\n<p>Haven&#8217;t hit the 3\/4 point yet, and I&#8217;m regretting wanting to do this. The next time this happens, I&#8217;ll wait until there&#8217;s a much, much easier route.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a week since I stared construction on the road to Whitechapel.
