Tsitrin is a city currently planned for PVE8, intended as a direct successor to Topaz of PVE6, since the construction of Amethyst was halted and the city dismantled after a serious argument with its neighboring city. Tsitrin will not follow the pattern of Amethyst, which was free form and natural. Instead, Tsitrin will follow a rigid design plan that is currently being built in single-player creative by Segasaturn95.
Design Plan
The design of the town resembles an elongated pound symbol, with four roads forming four intersections around a central rectangle. The roads extend beyond the edges of this rectangle to prevent large gaps from forming between buildings at the corners of the city, and allow for an extra four plots, bringing the total to 28. The plots are sized 15x15, with buildings sized 13x13, unless they are combined into larger plots, allowing for buildings of size 13x28, 28x28, etc. Roads will be built of stone slabs framed by stone brick stairs as curbs, and will utilize the same "bar-lighting" pattern that Segasaturn95 originally used in Topaz (which was later removed by imwoood in favor of traditional lamp posts,) in which glass blocks at regular intervals top an inclosed box in the road that contains two torches. The shape is similar to a speed bump. Unlike Topaz, which placed the bars at the edges of plots, Tsitrin will place them at the center of the plot, to greatly increase lighting efficiency. The new pattern requires only half as many bars as the old pattern in some cases.
Buildings will be built mainly of stone-derived materials, excluding cobblestone, which is absolutely forbidden in the town. 9 of the 28 plots have already been designated to hold 5 constructions. City hall, pictured above, uses two. The city's wool farm takes up four plots, and is capable of holding 48 sheep, 3 of each color. A residential building takes up a plot, and provides living quarters for Segasaturn95 and his brother. A third room is also available if imwoood chooses to move into it. Two more plots are used as a public plaza. Half of this plaza is dedicated to the Topaz Memorial, a fountain with a glass copy of the Statue of Topaz, an ice sculpture from PVE6, built by imwoood. The other half will hold the Tsitrin Monument, a tall structure with redstone lamps on each side and controls at ground level for cascading light shows.
