Tutorials/Building a cruise ship

A cruise ship is a ship that can be built in Minecraft. This page shows a step-to-step guide how to build one.

Large cruise ships
(恕我直言，这个页面没有什么翻译价值，只是一个建筑的教程) 大型邮轮通常又大又复杂，因此也许建造过程会很困难和冗长乏味（翻译工作也相当冗长乏味）. 建议在创造模式建造（除非你有一个强大的后勤团队，如TIS），因为一些物资要大量使用却在生存模式和冒险模式中难以获取. Large cruise ships are usually very large and complex, and therefore may be quite difficult and tedious to build. It is recommended to build these in Creative mode, as a very large number of resources, some of which may be hard to acquire in Survival or Adventure, are usually needed to create a large cruise ship.

Recommended building blocks 推荐建筑方块

 * （混凝土）(good building block, could be used outside the ship)（好的建筑方块，可以用在外墙）
 * （羊毛）(useful inside the ship, but be careful using it near fire or lava, as it is flammable)（可以室内使用，纹理舒服. 但是不要靠近火源，可被点燃；也可以关闭火焰蔓延）
 * （木板）(can be used inside the ship, but it is also flammable, so make sure that fire cannot spread to it)（同上翻译，主要色泽纹理不同）
 * （地毯）(decoration block, also usable inside the ship, but again, it is flammable)（室内装饰品同样可燃）
 * es （火把）or（或） （萤石）(useful for lighting)（用于照明，还有营火、末地烛、海晶灯、红石灯等）
 * or (can be used as windows)

Medium-large cruise ships
Medium-large cruise ships are slightly smaller than cruise ships, making them useful if you want to build a ship that is large but not as tedious and resource-demanding as a large cruise ship.

Passenger ferries
Passenger ferries can be built in water bodies between two land masses, where the distance between the masses is not small but not significantly large either (e.g. a large lake, but not a river or an ocean). The size of a passenger ferry varies, such as a steamboat. the boat advised to create depends upon the number of passengers expected and/or the distance between the two lands.

River cruises
If a huge cruise ship is not what you're looking for, you can build a river cruise boat, which is a smaller ship designed for traveling through rivers. These boats are usually two decks or lower and not very long either. You could build this on top of a naturally generated river, or you could dig your own river and build your boat on that.

Terminals
Strongly recommended while building a cruise ship, it can include a check in desk, toilets, playing area, cafe, walkway to the ship, and optionally staircases and/or lifts with more than two levels.

Recommended building materials

 * (iron doors may give a more modern look, but need power)
 * (for windows; glass panes tend to give more depth)
 * and/or.
 * (ensure to keep any wood-based blocks away from fire hazards)
 * (again, avoid fires)
 * Piston (if creating an sliding, raising or extending terminal)
 * Slime Block (if creating an sliding, raising or extending terminal)
 * Honey Block (if creating an sliding, raising or extending terminal)
 * Lever (if creating an sliding, raising or extending terminal)
 * Redstone Dust (if using an iron door or creating an sliding / raising / extending terminal)
 * Redstone Repeater (for redstone line extension)
 * Redstone Dust (if using an iron door or creating an sliding / raising / extending terminal)
 * Redstone Repeater (for redstone line extension)

Dock (for small boats and nether hubs).
Create a platform of planks, add fences from floor of water body to platform corners.

Station (for small boats and nether hubs).
create 2 docks separated the exact width of the boat, create an staircase, extending terminal or sliding terminal up to ship entrance.

Low door and platform.
make a door level to a dock or station

Staircase.
Make a staircase

Extending terminal.
place an double piston extender.

attach a slime block line

place a line of a move-able block on front and top of slime block line.

power using a lever.

extend circuit if neaded using Repeater

Sliding terminal.
place an double piston extender.

attach a slime block to the available piston.

create a staircase starting on top of the slime block.

place 1 slime block underneath each stair.

power using lever.

extend circuit if needed using Repeater.

Life boats
All ships have lifeboats. Depending on the size of the vessel, you may have many or only a few lifeboats. Real-life lifeboats are colored orange, so they could be easily spotted by rescue crews, so you should use orange material to build the lifeboats.

Things to have onboard

 * Cabins for persons to live on the cruise ship. You may have different classes for cabins - ranging from ones with nothing but a bunk bed to suites with balconies and king-size beds. More expensive cabins tend to be placed on upper decks.
 * Ice Hockey on large cruise ships
 * Spleef arenas
 * Nightclubs
 * Casino
 * Restaurants
 * Shops (taxfree or so): A cruise ship doubles as a mall, as it has so many different shops. Make sure to have many shops for exotic and luxury goods.
 * Playrooms
 * Smoking rooms
 * Soda vending machines
 * Jukeboxes to play music (remember to put a music disc inside the jukebox or the jukebox won't play any music)
 * Info desk
 * Swimming pools
 * Waterslide
 * Engine Room: A ship cannot function without an engine. Engine rooms are huge, with tons of complex machinery. Building an engine room may be tricky, as many have never seen one.
 * Car Deck
 * Bridge: Any ship needs some form of command. Build a glorious, wide bridge from which the Captain can lead the vessel.
