It can be accessed from a number of major builds and settlements through the Survival 2 world, such as [[Spawn (Survival 2)|Spawn]]. It was centered in the [[City of Havana]]. The SRN also links smaller builds via Secondary Lines and networks from stations. | The Survival 2 Railway Network (''SRN'') was a community-operated overworld public transport service that consists of a number of minecart railway lines across the Survival 2 world.

Revision as of 00:25, 19 November 2018
Template:Server world infoboxSurvival 2 was a major world of the Cyberdog Nation Server and the second survival world, succeeding the long standing Survival world. It was rumored that a new survival world would be created to increase player interest with new players and reduce lag caused by the enormous size of the original world, however no official announcement came until August where it was announced that while the original world would remain online, a new Survival world would be created to launch in September. Finally, on September 2nd, 2017, the Survival 2 world was launched to the public in an interactive twitch live stream with ReNDoG.[1] The seed of the world was 8960140543346427025.
Announcement
Speculation
Prior to the announcement of the Survival 2 world, there was some speculation as to the creation of a new world, though many players believed due to how long the Survival world had been running as the primary world. The idea of launching a new world was met with some criticism amongst longstanding players, as players felt that the Survival world should remain the primary world on the server given it's legacy.
Reveal
The existence of the new world was confirmed in August of 2017 by a moderator discord announcement.[2] In addition, it was confirmed that both worlds would remain on the server to play on, though the Survival 2 world would become the main world for the server. A ReNDoG live stream would be to open the world on the 2nd of September later that same year.
Live Stream and Release
Main Article: Launch of the Survival 2 World
The Survival 2 world was launched via a live stream with ReNDoG, in the form of a story-based stream where viewers along with ReNDoG had to battle the 'dwarves' (played by server moderators and builders), leading up to a grand battle with the Ender Dragon. The tale was conveyed via books, which were handed out before the final battle, but due to an erroneous teleport, all players were killed and the books were subsequently lost.
Getting Around
There were a number of options for travelling around the Survival 2 world. Players can use the /sethome command across the server to return to places as they like[3], however in addition to thwas there were a number of public transport options available:
Warps:
A number of areas were publicly available to teleport to with commands, such as:
- /spawn - Takes you to Spawn.
- /warp end2 - Takes you to the End Portal.
- /warp pig2 - Takes you to the Pigman Farm
- /endfarm - Takes you to the Enderman Farm (while in the end.)
- /warp colorfully - Takes you to the Colors Event area.
With the closure of the world, these commands do not exist anymore.
Survival 2 Railway Network
Main Article: Survival Railway Network (Survival 2)
The Survival 2 Railway Network (SRN) was a community-operated overworld public transport service that consists of a number of minecart railway lines across the Survival 2 world. It can be accessed from a number of major builds and settlements through the Survival 2 world, such as Spawn. It was centered in the City of Havana. The SRN also links smaller builds via Secondary Lines and networks from stations.
Nether Transport Network
Main Article: Nether Transport Network (Survival 2)
The Nether Transport Network (NTN) on Survival 2 was the nether-based counterpart to the Survival 2 Railway Network, which was based on hyper-speed transportation using the mechanic of boats placed on packed ice to get around quickly. Just like the SRN, the NTN can be accessed from a variety of locations across the server.
Key Locations
Since the opening of Survival 2, several majorly notable settlements and building projects have been created[4].
Spawn
Main Article: Spawn (Survival 2)
Spawn was the center point of the Survival 2 world, where the World Border was centered around and where new players joined. Spawn has a number of plots for players to purchase and live in and features a number of key builds involved in the Launch of the Survival 2 World. Spawn was built in Creative Mode prior to the release of the world.
Havana
Main Article: City of Havana
The City of Havana, based on the Cuban city of the same name was founded on the same day the new Survival 2 world.[5] Originally founded by SRN Spawn Station build team, _edo, Brianetta and darparniox in response to lack of functionality of Spawn, the city's scope quickly expanded to become the travel hub and culture center of the world.[6] It can be accessed by travelling south of Spawn Station. It was considered to be the largest settlement on the server.
In April 2018, ReNDoG toured Havana in a base tour video.[7]
Akkara
Main Article: Akkara City
Akkara City was a city based on a mix between Aztec and Colonial architecture[8] and was founded on the launch of the Survival 2 world simultaneously with Havana, however the city did not open until later on. The project was originally proposed by William278, mayor of Lackria on the original Survival world and LAK3RS, a server pioneer and accomplished builder on the server before the launch of the new world. A decision was made during the opening of the world to open the city in the coordinate center of the world at (0, 0) and an island was built at the location with a connective bridge to commemorate this.
On the 28th of April 2018, Akkara City opened to an organized event and a live streamed base tour opening with ReNDoG.[9] It was considered to be the second largest settlement on the server, after the City of Havana.
On the 30th of June, 2018, Akkara was toured again by ReNDoG in an update tour.
Closure
On the 14th of October, 2018, it was announced that the Survival 2 world, along with all other existing worlds would be deleted and replaced with the Survival 3 world the following week. On the night of Friday the 19th the world was removed and on the morning of the 20th replaced by the new world along with the update to 1.13: The Update Aquatic.
