City of Tattington is a settlement on the Survival 6 world of the Dogcraft Server. It is based on Retriever and is currently the premiere community city build on Survival 6. The city was conceptualized by AwesomeTom21 and Wanderer_06 in May 2023 being built around the long standing Tom's Tatties brand, which was established by AwesomeTom21 in Survival 5.

About

The City of Tattington is the latest in a long line of large scale community built cities on the Dogcraft server. In contrast to some of its recent predecessors such as the City of Leon and the City of Gaia, it has a more casual approach to building design, allowing the city to be more accessible to players of all building abilities. The city is designed to be a European style city, with blends of classical and modern architecture.

The city is centred around the Palace of Tattington, which was designed by AwesomeTom21 and Ze_Tais. The Palace is situated atop a large hill, providing a great 360° vantage point of the city. Surrounding the palace is a large set of walls. The hill the palace sits atop is home to the main base of operations of Tattington. Similar to the Leon Hole, the Tattington Tunnel contains a storage area, lots of essential farms and a postal area for the convenience of Tattington Builders and Council Members.

Areas in the City

Looking North along the main boulevard of Palace Square.

Palace Square

The Palace Square is the historic old town of the city, many of the first builds in the city are located here. Points of interest include the CDNN studio, the city bank, and the park located at the far end of the boulevard underneath the cliffs.

Riverfront

The riverfront area is located beyond the old walled part of the city and contains many smaller buildings including shops and cafes. Work along this area was predominantly done by _Cambo and Slomo_1994. Other contributors include Locketeer and FangsofAmber.

Station Island

Station island and its surrounds contain Tattington Central Station as well as the Y21 embassy and Port Tattington. This area was largely built during Summer 2024.

Royal Tattington Airbase

Located in the far west of the city, the airbase is built in a large valley, with several large hangars and silos built into the mountain side. It is also served by its own rail station. The area was designed by AwesomeTom21 and built in Survival by ArchitectEagle.

Tom's Tatties HQ

Toms Tatties HQ

One of the newer additions of the city, located in the far northeast. The building is the headquarters of the Tom's Tatties company and is also the hub for production of premium Tom's Tatties. It was designed by AwesomeTom21 and built in Dogcraft by _Cambo.

History

Tattington was founded on Survival 6's launch day on the 16th of December. Progress was steady throughout the month of January, with work being spearheaded by AwesomeTom21 and kfr4014 on establishing the Tattington Tunnel to provide the needed resources to start work on the main construction of the city. Tattington officially opened for community builds on the 27th of January 2024, with players being encouraged to build their creations on the replica of the City on the Dogcraft Sandbox world first. A large scale dig session was held on the 11th of February, which aimed to take down a large mountain to make way for the initial palace square area. A lot of progress was made on this area and it was later completely removed over the following days thanks to the help of ArchitectEagle, _Cambo, Elednor89 and Mika_Panda among others.

Builds would start being constructed in Survival throughout the month of March, as the palace was slowly built up in Survival. These included Cosm1c_Moonl1ght's house as well as SummerFlower1234's courtroom which would also feature in the March 2024 CDNN episode.

Tattington Citizens

Citizenship is given out to any players that have helped significantly with the project. This includes building a house in the City or helping in a more general way consistently. The City Member role is the base role for citizenship, players that continue to help in a consistent manner may then be awarded the City Builder role, which signifies them as a key figure for the development of the city. Finally, the Council Member role is awarded to people who are responsible for planning future developments for the city, and responsible for giving directions and help for people wanting to build in the City.
