Goofing around with bridges and ladders

That tower to tower bridge is fucking sick.

So I decided to up the scale.






Also, below are a few humorous screenshots of elhorno and I during a "work in progress"

Oh man that was some funny work. Well done gnarl that looks great. Mile high tavern??

Recently cleaned up around the place and reorganized.

Haha you guys are nuts with your ladder creativity!

Great stuff Gnarl!!!

and I thought for the longest time that the ladder in the CY was the most genius thing going..

That sky bar is top notch!

Phase 2 complete!

.

Hard to tell what's going on there! Is the 3-story ladder going from the courtyard to the roof? Or is it going from the skybridge to the clouds?

What happens if you try to recall onto a tile with those table pieces?

.

That's just badass.

Ok so I'll explain this awesomeness. First thing i got was the ladders going from CY to my roof. I decided to turn the entire roof into a gate room so made it so you cannot go from the roof back into the cy. Then I connected the SE and SW roofs and then using cy lockdowns took that bridge and connected it to the main roof. Since it passes over the CY, all of those tiles of the bridge are markable and recallable. If you had a rune previously marked for beneath, it will still take you there, beneath. That means these new tiles are 100% secure, as long as I don't break security protcol they will stay that way. Since its so secure up top I put 2 sets of chests up there to serve as my 1 stop restock shop. Recall in, restock, recall out to whereever, no keyrings, no doors, no trash barrels. Restock chests 1 are reachable from the gate roof so i secured them. I couldnt secure my regs due to weight so I just made it a lockdown and moved it farther south on the bridge, restock chest 2.

I must say the concept of a 'gating room' is kinda intrigue'n mind showin' it off?

Well gate rooms can be made in even the smallest of houses and it consists of some runebooks and a secure area of the house. This way I can pick up stranded alts without risking being house looted or cy marked. You make the room such that you can get in but cannot get out. In my room's case, I can just run into the room from the cy. The stool is high enough however that I cannot use the ladder once inside the gate room. Then I have 1 of every runebook that is sold at WYNB. The chest holds 1000's of recall scrolls, I try to keep the books charged because i have a lot of gimped 0 magery alts.
Gate rooms allow you to safely open a gate inside your house to move alts and heavy items.

OK one more question: if you put a wooden chest under one of the table runners... would that block people with runes on the grass, but not on the table?

Interesting question. Ok first I confirmed a chest on the ground level cy will block a rune on the cy level, expected. Then I tried to mark with a chest directly below the table runner and it would not let me mark, saying location is blocked. Next I removed the chest, marked ontop of the runner, and replaced the chest and you CAN recall even while its blocked to marking. WOW. Just as I type this I realize that that means. Ty dalavar it looks like you could block the cy underneath the bridge (as long as you also made it so people can't just jump down from the bridge to cy) and have a completely unmarkable platform, that is except for the runes YOU already marked. Dalavar your a genius! This means you could for instance run events from your private residence and gate people onto the bridge into the venue and not worry about losing your secure cy.
