The Circle Details

The first step was to find a suitable area for the circle, I chose that spot because it was near enough to everything while also letting me expand the circle into smaller ones which is what I plan to do for Phase 2. This Phase mainly consisted of alot of digging.

In this phase I chose a design for the walls and started some of the areas for this level of the Circle.

This is one of the first areas I built, it was made because the primary smelter kept running out of fuel. It has a blaze spawner in the inside and as they hit the lava at the bottom they themselves turn into molten blaze, this means there is an unlimited supply of fuel for all future smelters.

This is the start of one of the branch circles. The aim is to use this as a spiral staircase to enter and exit all the Circles levels. The original size was too small for the staircase to work correctly so I'm in the process of making it larger, it should be completed by the end of Phase 3.

This is the start of the storage area. It's fairly simple, just a bunch of chests with the block that each chest contains underneath it to indicate whats in each chest easily. The amount of chests it currently contains is more than enough even for the later Phases. It will probably be finished during Phase 5.

Phase 3 will be the continuation of the circle staircase and digging to deepen the circle for the next areas.

Phase 4 will be the building of the walls and the 3 new areas as well as connecting the circle staircase to this level.

Phase 5 will be the final? (may continue going down later) digging of the Circle.

Phase 6 will be for the final areas on the bottom layer of the circle. The areas have yet to be decided.
