Revision as of 18:20, 4 November 2020
New Earth is a stream project started on 26th July 2020, where a 1:4000 scale map of the Earth is opened up in sections to the public to build, both on and off of stream.
The map is pre-made with the countries and borders (depicted with cobblestone blocks) laid out, and users are allowed to build down a little and up to around 40 blocks from sea level.
The builds can be viewed by joining the server (Instructions found here) and via the Dynmap here. You can show the regions by turning on the "WorldGuard" layers found on the left.
This is the first stream to be played on the 1.16.1 game version.
Rules
The full list of rules can be found here

Public Build 1 - Central & Eastern Europe
The second public build that opened at the end of Stream 1 featured a lot of Central Europe, including locations such as Belgium, Italy, Switzerland and Austria to name a few.
This was later expanded one day later to include a lot of Eastern Europe.
This build region closed at 5pm 30th July 2020, in preparation for the next stream 2 hours later.

This second stream was on the 30th July 2020 at 7pm (BST) and lasted around 3 and a half hours. This opened up most of the Nordics: Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. During the Stream RT visited and explored a lot of the Public Central Europe area built in between the streams before admiring what had been built during the stream itself.

Public Build 2 - Northern Russia
The second public build was opened after the stream on 30th July 2020, expanding to a northern section of Russia.
This was expanded to the East on the 5th August 2020, as the video released to include even more of Northern Russia.
This was, again, further expanded to the East once more on the 13th August.
Once again this was finally expanded to the very East of Russia, going up to the edge of the world, on the 29th August 2020.
This area finally closed on 13th September, 1pm. Making this the largest and longest region at this time.

Public Build 3 - North-west Africa
After an expected stream was cancelled, the plans to open a new region still went ahead. This area featured multiple countries including Morocco, Algeria, Western Sahara, Mali, Senegal, Canary Islands, to name just a few. For the next stream on the 16th this region was temporarily closed and reopened once the stream had finished.
Stream 3 - Northwest Asia & Viewing Northern Russia (Part 1)
On 16th September RT set out to view what had been created in the Public Northern Russia area. Due to its sheer size, RT only managed to view around half of the region, even with the stream lasting 4 hours. He planns to view the rest of it during a later stream.
Throughout the stream, a new region was opened - Northwest Asia. This included Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, Some southern Russia, Georgia and Turkey.
Due to the region being less filled, this and the previous public area (North-west Africa) were both left open for players to build on and was closed on 22 October, just over a month later.

Stream 4 - Mainland America
On 22nd October 2020 a region was opened up that covered (most) of Mainland America - Or Contiguous United States - where RT streamed and toured the area while people built for just under 4 hours.
This region has stayed open after the stream to be closed at a later time.
On this day a fast travel hub was also created, allowing players to go to the spawn platform portal and then jump to any previous regions on the map.

Public Build 4 - Northern Africa
After the previous stream, on 22nd October 2020, this new region opened up, featuring countries including Libya, Chad, Cameroon and Central Africa Republic. This stayed open for an extended time for off-stream building.
Stream 5 - Viewing Northern Russia (Part 2)
On 27th October 2020, RT planned to view the rest of Northern Russia that he didn't complete in his previous viewing, viewing the last half of builds. The stream was over 4 hours in length where he also viewed the Northwest Asia region after travelling through Northern Russia. During the stream, people were limited to building within the Northern Africa region to aid in server performance. This meant mainland America was put "on hold". After the stream the whole world was back open and people could build in either of the two open regions.
