History

On July 29, 2012, Inchmuir originally started as an island home for thomasfyfe, but then developed to become small town that grew around Fyfe Manor. As more building space was needed to accommodate the city's growth, neighbouring islands were acquired for the expansion. In total, Inchmuir covers five islands and part of the main continent. Inchmuir has a business district and recreational facilities. Inchmuir has a power grid, with most buildings in the city are connected via redstone to the grid. Power is generated in North-East Island's industrial district and is distributed by Inchmuir Power to the seven city districts: Business District, Residential District, City Centre, Inchmuir Spaceport, North-East Island, Southern Island and Waterfront.

Districts

The seven districts of Inchmuir

Business District

Located in the business district are the global headquarters for FyfeCorp as well as the original MRT Trade Centre. The trade centre has been home to the Laser Corporation, LSN Holdings, LP Inc. and is now currently owned by UL Industries. The district also houses the central control for Inchmuir's power network, one of the more unique features of the city. Known originally as Redstone Power Inc, Inchmuir Power is the control centre for the entire city's power supply.

The operations building for Inchmuir Power was demolished leaving only the grid control centre underground. The whole building was replaced by the new Inchmuir Tower which will hold power operations as well as the city's council and administration. FyfeCorp is also looking to move its main headquarters to within the 17-story skyscraper. Major buildings in this district include:

  • FyfeCorp Headquarters
  • Inchmuir Tower
  • Inchmuir Power
  • Inchmuir Water Works

City Centre

The city centre is located on the main island and is the oldest part of Inchmuir. Fyfe Manor and its grounds dominate this district but it also holds the city's shopping precinct and town hall. The existing bus station was refurbished by Architechnic as part of the city centre improvement program. The bus station has routes to Spawn City, Miningstone and New Delvin.

Inchmuir Central Rail Station (previously known as Inchmuir Regional Rail Station) has a number of platforms available for independent rail lines wishing to connect to the city. If a player is interested in claiming a platform for their rail line, please contact thomasfyfe. Major buildings in this district include:

  • Town Hall
  • Inchmuir Central
  • Fyfe Manor
  • Bus Station

Inchmuir Spaceport

Inchmuir Spaceport

Inchmuir Spaceport is a massive complex under construction by the Inchmuir Space Agency to provide missions of space exploration and research. The Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) is the largest building in Inchmuir and unofficially the largest single-story building on the server.

The spaceport will contain two launch pads, a mission control centre, and research facility when complete. If the ban is ever lifted on airports/runways, ISA will consider installing a runway to allow the space shuttle and other support craft to land directly at the facility.

North-East Island

The North-East Island in 2015

Inchmuir was expanded into neighbouring islands after the need for more building space. BaronThamesBank is the city official for this district and managed most of the construction on this part of the city. Many builds in this district are replicas of real-life buildings with inspirations taken from Battersea Power Station in London and the MetLife Tower in New York. Major buildings in this district include:

  • Art Deco Tower
  • MetLife Tower
  • Inchmuir Power Station

Residential District

The residential district is marketed as a get-away from the busy city life. Luxury villas were available to players who have made large contributions to the city of Inchmuir.

Southern Island

After the expansion into the North-East island and the need for more building space, swampland to the South was filled in to create the new Southern Island. Before the city was started in the early days of the server, a small water village had remained preserved here, only one standing structure remains of this old village.

Southern Island is not technically an island since it is still connected to the main continent on the very south side. A road at this connection provides access to Inchmuir Spaceport.

Located on Southern Island is Inchmuir Mall, Inchmuir's second-largest shopping district (after North-East Island). The mall is a 6-story, partially underground complex with space for members to build their own stores in.
