On a clear night, Scientests recieved a message from deep space. Encrypted into the message were instructions for a machine. After months of debate and research, it was discovered that the machine was a portal designed to take one human to a unknown location.  It has now been built...

Presenting "The Machine"
By OfficialTron117
From the 1997 movie "Contact"

Map Features:
- The Machine (of course)

-FULLY FUCTIONAL PORTAL that transports player to a second machine in the Nether!!!!

Mods:

-requires wireless redstone (adds CO-OP feature where one person is in machine and other person is in control room to open the pod doors and turn the portal on and off) (the portal is already activated upon spawn)
http://slimevoid.net/ its on there somewhere:)

As of this point (2/28/2015) the machine is finished, but i may add some more things to it later so watch for that...

End note
-It has taken a long time to get to this point, and we are glad that we finally made that first push to build this thing! Coming soon from Ringworld Productions, we will make a movie from this map (unknown if it will be a short or full film) so keep an eye out for that!
