PART I - NETHER INFRASTRUCTURE

1 Main Nether Line Criteria

1.1 In order for a main line to be designated as such, the following criteria must be met:
    (a) It has to pass through two realms or more,
    (b) The line must connect to one or more other main line(s),
    (c) The line must be horse and person safe,
    (d) Single designated colour must only be present for ease of reference,
    (e) Lines must be logically organized and easy to follow,
    (f) Must contain signage that directs the traveller to Realms / closest main line,
    (g) Signage must be posted in a visible location, and
    (h) The Minister or Deputy Minister must review the line in order to ensure the criteria is met.


2 Secondary Line Criteria

2.1 All lines that are not deemed a Main Line are considered "Secondary Lines". The following criteria must be adhered to:
    (a) Must not contain single colour conventions. Only Main Lines can contain a single colour convention for ease of reference.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Official Guidelines for Nether Highways:

- Minimum of 3x3 blocks wide and tall on highway sections.

- Cobble/equivalent or higher block strength for floor.

- Portal Frames to be 7x7 for a total of 5x5 portal space.

- Hubs in Overworld or Nether to have at least 2 blocks between the Portal Space and any design or other decoration to prevent Horse Suffocation.



Fast Travel Connection Requisites

3. Applications submitted to the Commission must include each and every element of the following:

a. A minimum of three (3) examples of photographic evidence: one picture of the port at either end of the connection as well as current map displaying the lorified proposed connection route.

b. A developed port on each end of the Connection. To be deemed suitable for a Maritime Fast-Travel Connection, each port must meet the following developmental and infrastructural requirements in order to justify the need for, the effect of, and the physical and economic ability to maintain a Maritime Fast-Travel Connection:

c. Population and residential areas large, established, and developed enough to generate sufficient traffic as to require a Connection.

d. Local commerce and industry prominent and developed enough to financially support a Connection and to provide economic rationale (i.e. international trade, commercial traders, etc.) for the creation and support of a Connection.

e. A number of oceangoing vessels housed within each port; large enough to facilitate oceanic trade and development and to provide activity sufficient to warrant a Connection. A minimum of either four (4) midsize (20-35 meters in length) oceangoing vessels or three (3) large (35-50 meters in length) oceangoing vessels must be present in the harbor of each port (this number may include Connection vessels).

f. Alternate forms of travel connecting each port to the Mercurian Empire’s transportation networks. These may include overland connections or nether connections. A nether line, if present, must be rated as wholly secure by the Ministry for Surveyors and Civil Engineers.

g. Physical evidence of each port having been influenced and impacted by international development including but not limited to trade, culture, diplomatic representation, etc. Physical evidence of international development may include but is not limited to: foreign businesses, international trade, representation of international Guilds, and diplomatic embassies. A minimum of two (2) physical examples of international presence must be established in each port.

h. International vessels housed in each port, in order to demonstrate that the port is being employed by international vessels on a regular basis. A minimum of two (2) international vessels, clearly marked as having originated in another realm, must be present within the vessels of each port’s harbor (these vessels may be employed for Connections).

4. The port on either end of the proposed Maritime Fast-Travel Connection must contain an oceangoing vessel that houses the Connection Point transporting the individual to the other end of the Connection and the paired vessel.

a. Each vessel must clearly display its destination port and realm in both written form (via signage) and realm-specific (via banners, flags, use of the realm’s color scheme, etc).

b. Each vessel may house only one (1) Maritime Fast-Travel Connection and may travel to only one (1) destination – each successive Maritime Fast-Travel Connection will require a separate pair of vessels.

Sorry realized this was never posted as an official document (nothing I could find anyways) once it was passed. This will be the placeholder for this document until the library is up.

Can someone make this remain at the top of my Ministry page for now? I am not sure how to do it.

That is good question and one that I am about to answer! There will be a process outlined in a new thread soon.

Can someone make a subforum if it is possible in this Ministry area. I want to be able to organize the requests, complaints, etc to this Ministry into one area so they are easier to manage.

I can do this, and sticky (i.e make this post at the top of the new subreddit) this! What would you like the name of the subreddit to be? Something like "Ministry Requests and Complaints" ?
