The '''Test of the Megalopolis''' is one of the [[tests]] in the [[Discipline]] of Architecture.  Up to 49 players will cooperate in the construction of a vast building project.

The '''Test of the Megalopolis''' is simple:  you must build a megalopolis.  When you finish, up to 49 people will pass the test.

The goal of the Test of the Megalopolis is simple (though challenging): you must construct a '''Megalopolis''', a massive 49-piece building complex.  When the Megalopolis is complete, test passes go to every player who finished one or more pieces.  Thus, up to 49 players can pass simultaneously.

=== Building the Site ===
 
−
 
 
−
A Megalopolis is so huge that even its construction site requires a smaller construction site to build.  The entire project begins with one player building a [[Small Construction Site]] and selecting the option to build a Megalopolis Construction Site (Projects -> TESTS-> Megalopolis).
 
−
 
 
−
The Megalopolis Construction Site consists of one central structure surrounded by 48 smaller construction sites. Each of these smaller sites will be used to build a piece of the Megalopolis.
 
−
 
 
−
Initially, the first player is the owner of all 49 construction sites. He or she is then free to transfer ownership of them to different individuals, or guild them, or even make them public.
 
−
 
 
−
'''IMPORTANT NOTE:''' From the time the Megalopolis Construction Site is built, you have '''one real-world week''' to finish the Megalopolis. If all 48 pieces are not finished by the end of the week, the entire Megalopolis will crumble to dust, taking all your materials and labors with it. Because of this, it is wise to gather all your people and (estimated) materials ''before'' you raise the construction site.

=== Building the Megalopolis ===
 
−
 
 
−
Every Megalopolis, as noted, consists of 49 components:
 
−
* Central Structure (1)
 
−
* Ramps (4)
 
−
* Towers (12)
 
−
* Wall Segments (8)
 
−
* Bridges (4)
 
−
* Gate Sections (4)
 
−
* Edge Walls (8)
 
−
* Side Walls (8)
 
−
 
 
−
Each component has its own requirements for materials, and (except for the central structure), the required quantity of these materials varies with each project.  See the '''Requirements''' section below for the base cost of each component, but be aware that the actual cost may be more or less.
 
  
−
When all 48 pieces are finished, the structure is built.  Everyone who completed a piece will pass the test. "Completing a piece" means making the '''last''' addition of materials to that piece -- it is only the player who finishes the piece who gets credit for passing purposes.  The player who built the Megalopolis Construction Site gets credit for the central structure.
+
==Passing the Principle==
 +
Follow the steps in the principle list.   
  
−
A single person can finish more than one piece. But of course a single person cannot pass the test twice, so this is very inefficient. You would be wise to seek out a full compliment of 49 players.
+
Don't Panic - all steps regarding cutting a gem not need to be resolved. I believe once the Megalopolis has been built, all construction-related steps are automatically completed if not already. (Like [[Pathmaker]]s)
  
−
Having all Megalopolis participants in a guild together is an excellent idea.

University Text

The Test of the Megalopolis is simple: you must build a megalopolis. When you finish, up to 49 people will pass the test.

Overview

This is the fifth test in the Discipline of Architecture.

The goal of the Test of the Megalopolis is simple (though challenging): you must construct a Megalopolis, a massive 49-piece building complex.

Passing the Principle

Follow the steps in the principle list.

Don't Panic - all steps regarding cutting a gem not need to be resolved. I believe once the Megalopolis has been built, all construction-related steps are automatically completed if not already. (Like Pathmakers)

Passing the Test

See Megalopolis for building requirements.

When all 48 pieces are finished, the structure is built. Everyone who completed a piece will pass the test. "Completing a piece" means making the last addition of materials to that piece -- it is only the player who finishes the piece who gets credit for passing purposes. The player who built the Megalopolis Construction Site gets credit for the central structure.

A single person can finish more than one piece. But of course a single person cannot pass the test twice, so this is very inefficient. You would be wise to seek out a full compliment of 49 players.

Messages

Once the megalopolis is complete, the central structure can be used to post messages to the event calendar at the cost of 50 Papyrus Paper for your first posting. (Well, maybe. Prices seem to vary. Range observed from 50 to 130 paper. --Peacefulness)

Events carry the following information:

Title - Shows up in BOLD on the Calendar. 30 Characters max.
Start Date - No more than 7 days in the future. Specify in your own local time.
Duration in Minutes - No more than 1440 (One day)
Location - Description of where people should show up. It is ok to leave this blank.
Start Message - Posted to the System channel when the Event starts. Ok to leave this blank.
End Message - Posted to the System channel when the Event ends. Ok to leave this blank.
