Hyperloop Tutorial

Hyperloop is a traveling mod for a lag-free and fast traveling.

The player has to build stations and connect them by means of Hyperloop tubes.

Hyperloop Network

The Station block is used to build Hyperloop stations. The station is build automatically. To build a station, place the station block, fill the inventory with the needed items, and press the "Build" button. The station door is always directed to the player.

After the station is build, place the Booking Machine somewhere near the station (wall or ground mounted) and enter the station name and some informational description into the Booking Machine form.

To build larger networks, Junction blocks are used.

Junction blocks allow up to 6 forks (one in each direction).

Elevators

In addition the the Hyperloop network the mod provides Elevator cars and Shafts to build lifts.

Station Book

The Station Book is useful to find the next station or Junction or the find a broken tube line. The Station Book can be used as tool.

With the left mouse button, up to 24 Station and Junction blocks in the neighborhood are shown.
With the right mouse button. only the Station and Junction blocks are shown which are connected to the next station.

The Station Book shows:

  • ID number
  • distance to the player position
  • name of the Station or Junction
  • node position
  • Owner name
  • Connections to other nodes (IDs), or the position of open tube ends

Crowbar

The Crowbar can be used to repair and break Tube lines. The break Tube lines 'hyperloop' privs are needed.

  • With the left mouse button, the selected and normally unbreakable Tube block can be removed.
  • With the right mouse button, the selected tube line will be repaired. This is useful if tubes are placed by means of WorldEdit.

Hints

  • Connected Tubes are unbreakable. They can only be broken off from the ends. This means that the tubes do not need to be additionally protected.
  • To simplify the building of forks, Junction blocks should to be placed from time to time (every few hundred nodes).
  • The maximum tube length without Junctions/Stations is 1000 nodes.
  • Elevator Shafts and Hyperloop Tubes have different meanings and therefore can not be used alternatively.
