Blocklands - a Minecraft world you can drive v1.0

Hey everyone! This is a new map for BeamNG, a Minecraft-style world that you can drive around in. The whole map is 3 x 3 km and everything on it is made of 1 m blocks: terrain, trees, buildings, all of it. Since cars can't drive over blocks, you get around on roads, and there are 34 km of them - dirt roads between villages, a highway ring, a mountain road, a drag strip and a race track.

What's on the map

There are a lot of biomes: plains, forests, taiga, jungle, swamp, savanna, desert, badlands, snowy mountains, ice spikes, a mushroom island and the ocean.

You'll find four villages (Oakvale, Sandholm, Frostpine and Acaciaville) where you can walk into the houses, and a bigger city called Blockport with a lighthouse by the harbour.

The Nether is inside a crater. You drive through the portal, cross the bridge over the lava lake and look for the bastion. The End is a floating island over the sea, and the portal to it is hidden in a stronghold ruin somewhere on the plains.

Other places: a pyramid, a jungle temple, a mansion, a witch hut, an igloo, a pillager outpost, an ocean monument, a shipwreck, a castle, Frost Keep, a ghost town, a treetop village, mines, a ranch, a sawmill, a graveyard and the Far Lands behind the world border.

There are also around 1300 mobs on the map. Cows and sheep in pens, villagers, fish, and the animals run away if you drive at them.

Rides

To use a ride, get out of the car and stand on the gold pad for 3 seconds.

• Blockcoaster - a 6.5 km roller coaster with 3 stations, a loop, a glass tube under the sea, a cave and the sky islands

  

• Ferris wheel and a 62 m drop tower

• Log Flume through the jungle, about 3 minutes long

• Elytra - you can fly from the Elytra Tower or the mountain top (W/S pitch, A/D turn, Shift for rocket). There are 14 rings with a timer and your best time is saved

  

For cars

• 5 TNT catapults that throw you 110-150 m

• Slime Park, where the car bounces instead of crashing

  

• Ice Drift Ring (563 m)

  

• Ice Chute, a bobsled track for cars (879 m)

• Drift park, offroad park and drag strip

Enemies

Creepers on the roads will come up to your car and explode. Ghasts in the Nether shoot fireballs. You can fight the Wither on its altar in the Nether (survive 60, 90 or 120 seconds), and the Ender Dragon flies around the End and attacks you sometimes.

Settings

In the radial menu there's a Blocklands section (only on this map). You can turn mobs on or off, change TNT power, slime bounce, ice grip, Wither difficulty and a few other things. There's also a teleport list with 35 places that unlock as you find them. Everything is saved between sessions.

Other

• AI traffic, and up to 40% of it are mob cars (ATVs with a cow, pig, sheep, chicken, horse or wolf body, you can find them under the ATV in the vehicle list)

• Day and night cycle, minimap

• 5 spawn points: Oakvale, Blockport, Summit Road, Frozen Lake, Badlands

Install

Requires BeamNG.drive 0.39. Install via AVA Mod Manager (recommended) or manually. The first load can take a couple of minutes.

Hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think in the comments!

Guys, the map has a lot of unique models and gameplay features, so there might be some bugs. Sorry in advance, and please let me know if you find any. I'll keep working on the map, so it will get better and bigger with future updates.
