(07-14-2019) Yet another update on Republic of Domolas!

Republic of Domolas has been updated again! However, there are no railway changes, so you can keep using the subway map from the 06302019 update.

However, the road system has been updated a lot since the last update, and let's check out the changes!

First, there is a new Expressway opening, and it's called Highway 401. It currently goes from Domolas to Windfall Valley, and it'll be extended in the next few updates. Here are some photos of Highway 401:

Near the Expressway, another set of streets opened, and those streets are the beginning of the Grirecien Underground, which will be an underground shopping mall.

There are currently 2 streets in the Grirecien Underground, and both of them are existing streets that are extended through the area. Eventually, there will be more streets, and the buildings will open!

There is another area where streets have been extended, and if you guessed that it's in the south, you're correct! In the southern Redwood Taiga, Ferini Avenue has been extended south to the Nydalered area! Nearby, Qedriwin Avenue has also been extended to the Redwood Taiga, and the "Service Roads" in the Nydigorith area have been extended, too!

Finally, we don't want to forget mentioning the Lake Edoimeth Scenic Trail, a street located on the western and southern sides of Lake Edoimeth. This area is a natural conservation area, where the nature is preserved. This road goes from Edoimeth Street to Ererralith Street, near the Town of Trelalle.

[Coming Soon] Grirecien Underground

There will be an underground mall in the northeast of Domolas Region, and it's called the Grirecien Underground. In the next update, it's only going to be 2 streets, but it will eventually expand a lot! Here is the logo for the Grirecien Underground:

In the next update, there will be 4 entrances, 2 on Miralilith Road, and 2 on Grirecien Avenue, both of which will be extended to the other side of the Grirecien Underground. Here are screenshots of the area:

The streets of the Grirecien Underground look like this.
The new termini of the streets will remain a mystery, but feel free to guess where they will be! Hint: Try looking in the wiki!

Stay tuned for the update, which will be on this Sunday!

[Coming Soon] Highway 401

The first expressway in Republic of Domolas is coming in the next update, and it's called Highway 401. Highway 401 goes from Domolas to Windfall Valley and is about 1.7 kilometers long. Here is a map of the road:

Expressways are traveled on horses, and one can be spawned at either interchange.

To get rid of horse drops after the horse is killed (and other unwanted items), there are garbage bins located near the interchanges.

Here are the photos for the expressway:

Domolas First House and other landmarks can be seen in the background.

Most of the expressway looks like this.

(06-30-2019) The biggest update in Republic of Domolas so far

Another update is here, and it is the biggest update in Republic of Domolas so far! Here is the new subway map for this update:

According to current plans, this subway map will be valid for an unusual length of 6 weeks, since no railway system updates are scheduled for the next 2 versions.

First, it has been almost 2 months since Line 1 was extended the last time, and it has been extended again! The extension is only 1 station long, but the new terminal station, Lerralia, uses platform gates, which are now fixed! However, I would not show you any pictures of the extension because I want you to explore it on your own.

Speaking of platform gates, the platform gates at Sedribwyn Plateau are also fixed! However, when one thing gets fixed, another won't work. Upon conversion to 1.14.3, the villager vendors no longer work.

Line 2 had also been extended 2 km south to Astelikin, which almost doubled the line's length. The extension passes through the Redwood Taiga biome in the south, and uses a datapack that makes minecarts go fast! However, the datapack will be replaced in the next update. Here is a photo of the extension:

This image looks weird because it was combined from 4 individual Mineways screenshots, since I cannot take a picture of the whole extension.

There also has been a third subway line extension, and this one is of Domolas Branch Line, which has been extended to Astorekith station. A second station also opened within the Town of Astorekith, which is Astorekith South, on Domolas Branch Line. There is also a third station on Domolas Branch Line: Lothaudith, which is located between Grirecien Bridge and the Town of Astorekith.

The first mall in Republic of Domolas is built, and the subway station nearby has been renovated:
Left: The renovated Qedriwin station.
Right: Qedriwin Mall.
This is Qedriwin Mall, which is built next to Qedriwin station. Only the mainframe structure of the first part is built, and the second part will be built only after I get the villager vendors working. Qedriwin Mall also has the first elevator in Republic of Domolas!

[Coming Soon] Qedriwin Mall

The first mall in Republic of Domolas is coming in the next update, which is this Sunday! Qedriwin Mall is built next to Qedriwin station, which will be renovated. There is a bridge between the the mall and the subway station. The first elevator in Republic of Domolas is also located in Qedriwin Mall. Here are photos of the mall and the new look of the subway station:
The mall is to the right, and the station is to the left.

The renovated station.
Unfortunately, only the mainframe structure of the first part will be available in the next update, and there is a part of the mall that is only going to be built after the completion of the first part.

Stay tuned for the next update, which will be on this Sunday!

P. S. School is out! Have fun!

[Coming Soon] Line 2 Southward Extension & Redwood Taiga

Sorry for the late post because I was too busy working on the map, since the next update will be a big one compared to all the previous updates. Even though it's a big update, I would like to show you one of the most notable features: extending Line 2 southward for 2 kilometers. This is the final extension for Line 2 until about half a year later. The line is now 4.6 kilometers and 13 stations long, and a tour of the line will be made shortly before the release of the next update.

Most of the extension is above ground, with the midpoint of the tracks at X=0. The new tracks and all 4 of the new stations on the line are built in a newly developed style that you may have seen in my map before. 3 of them are built in the somewhat rare "Redwood Taiga" (actually called "Giant Tree Taiga" ingame) biome.

Here is a picture of the extension:

If the image looks weird, it's because it was combined from four individual Mineways screenshots.

Also, the new part of the line uses a datapack that can make minecarts go fast. This datapack will be replaced by my Lightning Dash technology when it's available.

Stay tuned for the next update!

(06-16-2019) New update on my map!

My map has been updated again, and here's the new subway map:
As you can see, Line 2 and Domolas Branch Line have been extended to Sedribwyn Plateau and Bedrildan, respectively. Both of the new terminal stations are built in a newly developed building style, which will become the primary building style of my map in the future. Sedribwyn Plateau is the first station to use platform gates. (They're currently buggy, but the issue will be fixed in the next update.) Here is a screenshot of Sedribwyn Plateau station:
There is also a new road connecting the Tigoth and Windfall regions, and it's called the Grareven Highway. One of the first two suspension bridges on this map is on the Grareven Highway!

The western section of the road.
The eastern section of the road.











There is also a new region called the Baubard Region, and its name was decided by my classmates in a vote out of 8 candidates. You can access it by heading east from the Town of Yareviel, or by heading east (or south according to some people) on Ererralith Street!
