I did an exploration of the World a while back. This is the result.

I fucked up with a command block and teleported every loaded entity on the server to First Hearth. CoreProtect can't undo it, and I had to rollback to the last backup (4 days.) Sorry.

Edit: Built a teleporter that will take you to new chunks:

Not sure I ever showed Moria's back gate. I had it linked to a daylight sensor, which seemed to work - - - -  until it really didn't. I'm guessing there were too many moving parts and its chunk being loaded/not loaded messed with it.

For your next project, wherever that might be, you need to rework it with more complexity than just a simple daylight sensor, such that the back door of some other lonely mountain will only make itself possible to open upon the last light of Durin's Day... ;)

Mate, the first gate like this I made was maybe three blocks tall and required a block of grass to determine whether it was day.

By comparison this is overly complex  :D

You are making me wonder whether it's possible to form some sort of calendar and only have the door open one day per year, though.

The problem of the chunk's status (loaded/unloaded) is a factor for that as well, though :/

The gate of Mamgozgídthůr is also controlled by a daylight sensor. There is a slight issue I found soon after I build it though. While all the redstonics are within one chunk, one layer of the gate is in a neighbouring chunk. This means that if the nearest person is exactly the right distance south of it when it changes state, the gate breaks. (if they are the same distance north, the gate fails to activate in the first place.)

As for calendar, it would be possible with some kind of loading anchor. If you had it, simply hook a daylight sensor to a counter that adds up once every time the daylight sensor is deactivated. Then you set the door to open (and close on a delay) when the counter reaches a certain number, such as 365. The counter is also reset at that time.

Hmmm. I'll maybe check just to verify none of it went over into another chunk. I suspect my problem was more two 'consecutive' redstone pulses, though. It was only designed to deal with one every sun rise and set.

Therefore, if the chunk unloaded at sunset and then loaded again during the day, two signals may have been sent.

A large part of the problem is that I like to work out my own redstone solutions, so the design is likely bulky and in places counterintuitive. Frankly, I can no longer remember how it all works  :D

Edit: Also, what's 'the gate of Mamgozgídthůr'?

You might want to think about explicitly latching circuits. Been a while since I redstoned stuff (or did anything with MC), but you can make a tight circuit (presumably in a single chunk) that reacts with a more positive-on/positive-off response.

(And/or between source and sink, perhaps two redstone paths, 'logical' and 'logical-NOT', which need to be in opposition to resolve any change.)

Mĺmgozgídthur is a castle/star fort I built roughly south-east from First Hearth, on the coast. It has a gate that opens at dawn (or when somebody approaches during the day), and closes at dusk.

I just wrote it wrong before.

Found some pointed dripstone. I put a stack in the First Hearth lodge chest for anyone that wants to make a lava generator.

Edit: Built one in the lodge basement near the furnaces.

Looks like the server is down for good. Last backup was April 23.
