Hi, its ChocoParrot,
Recently, I've made a new train station replacing passengerpigeon's pigeon rail into the new CRS monorail. As this rail is intended so that people can travel more easily to certain areas such as the Mushroom Biome without having to /sethome there or remember the coordinates. The CRS is almost lag-free and has 9 selectable destinations as it uses no untoggleable clocks. Currently, there are only 3 done stations.
Thus, I've been planning on adding a new monorail to flatland but I'm not sure wether to do it and I want your opinion on wether I should build it or not. The rail at flatland will be slightly different from the CRS in terrain as it is a lined system. Which means, to get to a destination, instead of selecting it, you can ride the cart at spawn station and wait until you reach the place. This will reduce bulkiness as the space in flatland is already very limited, and I'm planning that this rail will help encourage people to build further away from spawn instead of using warps.
However, there is a drawback. Stations will be fairly huge and bulky. As the first line I'm intending to do is the Green line, there will be 10-15 stations scattered about 2mins ride from each other station. Station coded G1-G15. Also, a lot of redstone is involved in this process. I will try my best to simplify the station as much as possible and I have already plotted a safe and almost lag-free prototype. So here's to sum it up:
+ Points
- Points
I hope after reading the article, you would give me a response if I should make it. Of course, I will come down to asking an Operator wether to make it or not. But I want the players to give me opinions and advice too.
Thanks,
ChocoParrot

So here's to sum it up:
+ Points
- People can travel easily around the flatland
- Builds can be less squashed together
- People can build more privately in a bigger space
- Monorail tracks are not at all bulky
- All stations have the same structure, making everything look formal
- Points
- Redstone involved
- Stations are bulky
- Stations take time to build
- Monorail tracks may skip over low buildings such as villages, but not player made structures when made.
