Oh gods. This submarine pen I am working on his stupidly big. It's not even like I'm going to get all complicated. It's just a giant trench with a canopy and a big blocky submarine.
But I had to fill out a part of the side with dirt and stone to reclaim enough of the sea board to make room for the trench.
And then I have to dig out the trench the submarine is going to be lying in. I counted what the dimensions are going to look like if I stay with the current plan:
19 blocks deep.
19 blocks wide.
43 blocks long.
That's 15523 squares. That I am grinding down. Sigh.
And I keep digging into my tunnels beneath the island, so I'm having trouble with cave ins and now I just discovered a HUGE cave system in the furthest part of the pool.
Man, filling this thing with water is going to suck.
EDIT: And I haven't even begun figuring out how I'm going to build the actual submarine.
