I want to make a crazy roller coaster style base where everything is automated by Railcraft and Steve's Carts, but with a lot of uphill and downhill sections crossing over and under and generally twisting all around. Bonus points for using jumping tracks.

Oh that would be cool. You could have a bunch of simi-atuo farms that get harvested whenever you ride by on the rail.

you’d have to put it into a theme though, like dwarves mines would be easy to do, but what if you had a tree house, how could you make the rail fit

While Jess says that quiet village is the best disguise for epic underground labs, I disagree.
Almost slum-like (if you search favela in Google you'll find what I'm talking about) constructions are the best disguise for epic underground labs. After all, I prefer going from small, clumped, badly built houses to something that looks like Black Mesa.

yeah its always a cool idea to do that, but then you don’t get the wow effect of big awesome looking buildings, and theres no outside ascetics so idk. I might go for a Large Ruin with a underground research lab inside, so i can still get the ascetics

Well, the fact that most of the time, the architeture of a favela is commonly called a "puxadinho" (which is essentially creating something after a basic foundation of the house has been created, often with a different style and position) creates an architeture that is a bit random. It's not a big awesome looking building, but rather a big awesome good-looking collection of rather boring and random buildings.

In short, mundane made awesome.

What I would really enjoy doing... probably my next project... but the map from Black Ops 2 zombies.. the underground one (burried). It allows you to hide your place but give these outside per say aesthetics.

But I would not do it in an olden day... rather a secrect lab which has been abandoned or something like that

Dmyster look back at Bdoubleo and ethos episodes from ftb where they built a Blackops map using micro blocks

I have seen that and its really cool but its above ground...

I like the idea but It is way too much work and I would just like the aesthetics. Although it would be cool to have zombie spawners and somekind on level system with a shop using rotten flesh... hmmm I like this challenge

Allow me to recommend Hypixel's maps.

I have seen those actually... I really enjoyed playing them but just imagine what it would be like with that ftb touch
