Model Railroading
I was thinking about doing a scenario that's built like a house with different rooms and cities and industries simulating different things in the house... BUT...
I don't know if it's worth it...

EDIT : Here it is!

Re: Model Railroading
Do it if you think its worth it. Its up to you. Not everyone else. If we all didn't do stuff because other people told us not to we'd never do anything innovative.

Re: Model Railroading

Re: Model Railroading
I have a map of my bedroom, which was fail coz 21st century sound slipped in. I'd release it but people'd complain and i'm not sure its worth it.

Re: Model Railroading
is it gonna be exactly your house? if I were making it, you'd have lots of rooms and a hallway that all tracks have to go through. Oh and you must have a bath with water in it 
What if i beat you too it?

Re: Model Railroading
This is a great creative idea! Perhaps once you get a concept done (using the default terrain graphics, engines, etc.) a mod could be made to incorporate the differences between a model railroad and a real railroad (different prices, different scales for engines, different terrain, etc.). Even without a full mod I am looking forward to your creative scenario.

Re: Model Railroading
Good work, rename the towns to match the rooms though
May the force be with you.
