i'm hoping they add running water as if they do you could theroetically build a digital computer (you could also builad an anologue or even hybrid computer but that would be beyond my skill level) as the water would flow through a channel like electricity in a wire and by controlling and rediecting the flow you could simulate all the logic functions necessary to build a computer an we could make redstone computers look like yesterdays news

Looks awsome Billy, and glad to see another person hoping that they add Water to the game.

Hi Sparta, thanks :)

It does yeah. I'm sure SI is switched on on the upload but I had switched it off at one point to alter the layout of the lowest arches as wasn't starting from scratch with it on! If it's not on already it's safe to put it on.

It can be expanded lenghtwise as long as you build from the bottom up and copy the design as it is on the other spans (it takes a little time and landscaping with the voxel hands though so didn't do it any longer at the moment - will expand it when I get time). Arches cant be higher than the 3 blocks they are due to the weight above. If you're going to make the lowest arch higher than 3 blocks you need to build the lowest level out one extra block wide to each side to take the weight with SI on (take a look at the reference photos and previous spans if not sure :) ).

SI works pretty cool that way at the moment as looking at photos and drawings it's pretty much the same design Aqueducts were built to back in the day.

This looks awsome! Does it work with stuctural integrity?
