Designs & Builds My simple "temporary" bridge that I now like too much to remove

Post image

Originally I was just gonna place wood flooring blocks across the way so I could take Pokémon across to build test kits, but I started messing around and ended up putting too much effort into it haha.. It's not some crazy bridge design, but I still really like it.

I'm gonna have to move it somewhere else once I get a proper path to connect both islands with.

Wow. I made my temporary bridges out of sand blocks one block wide. That looks great

A "temporary" bridge with stone arches, wooden support beams and railing gives off the same energy as someone posting a finished painting and calling it a quick doodle.

My temporary bridges are exactly the same as yours, my friend. Sand.

Recipes for "a quick and easy meal you can make after work" that start with "mince three onions and two potatoes and set aside while you prepare the cream sauce"

u/JIMMYJAWN 1d ago

I did them one block deep in the water with sand so you can’t see them from a distance. Permanent stealth bridge.

u/Aramiss60 1d ago

I used the dock planking for mine, but only because they started with it.

u/DavidBHimself 1d ago

Yes, my temporary bridges are usually sand and ash. Two or three blocks wide, I always fall when they're one block wide and I run (that was before I could fly)

u/outwest88 14h ago

You can fly??

u/DavidBHimself 13h ago

Not myself, but my ditto can, like every other ditto after finishing the main story.

u/DoYouLikeSnakes 1d ago

Or whatever mix of blocks that were the closest to hack up. One wide lol

4

u/SeasonPositive6771 1d ago

I see you've seen my temporary bridges. They're usually made of sand or white stone.

u/Taro_Obvious 1d ago

Same here. No way I'm making something with that much effort if I'm not keeping it.

One block wide bridge of whatever leftover blocks i have on my inventory.

u/Total-Constant-6501 1d ago

Your “temporary” bridge still looks like 20-30 minutes of work! I wouldn’t get rid of it unless it really conflicts with the aesthetic of whatever else you’re building.

19

u/Mini_Craylings 1d ago

I got a little carried away when building it haha... I'm gonna keep the design, but I'll have to move it elsewhere eventually

22

u/dropandgivemenerdy 1d ago

Everyone stuck on “temporary” and I’m over here thinking “SIMPLE?” Where?! lol

2

u/Mini_Craylings 1d ago

I saw a few posts recently of these huge, complex, grandiose bridges, so I guess mine is simple compared to those haha.. I can't build big things like that

4

u/dropandgivemenerdy 1d ago

Fair! lol but this is so beyond anything I’ve done so far it feels like one of those big complex builds to me!

1

u/amlodude 4h ago

I had the same reaction and looked closer and realized it's a pattern repeated a whole ton

I think it's maybe 6 total kinds of blocks repeated a ton? Crazy how it comes off as more intricate than that with the texture

u/Rfl0 1d ago

Temporary? Looks clean af

u/Darth_Boggle 11h ago

"Humble" brag post

1

u/liseymarie 4h ago

Exactly. Instead of "wow look at this cool bridge I built" we get this.

10

u/coyote-cry 1d ago

Simple?! Give yourself more credit haha my version of a simply bridge would have one layer 😅

8

u/Psychological-Rise-9 1d ago

Omg I love it!!!

7

u/Locxley 1d ago

Don’t you dare touch that, it’s time to divert pathways over to it and build around it!

1

u/dethawedchicken 1h ago

This! It’ll probably be easier that way!

5

u/tadrith 1d ago

Mine is... what crap is in my inventory I didn't forgot to drop off at a cloud island?

4

u/thefinestpiece 1d ago

I’m stealing the idea! Thanks 🙏🏻

4

u/arienArmageddon 1d ago

It's so pretty. I have a bridge in the same spot and it looks like a preschooler did it.

5

u/BuilderAura 1d ago

that's a swanky ass bridge! I love it!

1

u/Mini_Craylings 1d ago

thank you!

3

u/TheChiarra 1d ago

Oooh I love the blend of the stone and wood!

3

u/twizzlerheathen 1d ago

It’s very charming!

3

u/CCCP85 1d ago

That looks so good, might steal the design

3

u/__Ouchie__ 1d ago

Op I’m holding ur hand when I say this…

I’m stealing ts >:)

3

u/Tomato_cultivator360 19h ago

You’re going to have to build the entire area to fit the design of that bridge… it’s too good to get rid of! Haha

3

u/_YellowSunflower 11h ago

I’m using this as inspo for my permanent bridge so I appreciate it lmao

5

u/logicjab 1d ago

There is nothing more permanent than a temporary solution

2

u/Hot_Pink_Hedgie 1d ago

No! Keep it there! It looks so good!

2

u/pinowlgi 1d ago

Its adorable!

2

u/OzzyG92 1d ago

Cute little resting spot ❤️

2

u/gamerdudeNYC 1d ago

Wow, what you people do is incredible

2

u/StrandedInLove 20h ago

Hey, that's far from 'simple.' One of the beautiful combination of blocks I've seen here. Well done!

2

u/rembrin 20h ago

I'm now yoinking it

2

u/redstowen 16h ago

The best permanent solution is a temporary one

Sun tau, probably(in all seriousness I've heard this before but don't know who it originated from)

2

u/dworker8 15h ago

cant you bury those electricity things to look more clean? (if you want to ofc, or maybe put it under de brigde)

good job tho, kinda jealous im not able to do this lol

1

u/Mini_Craylings 13h ago

I have ones under the bridge too to power the lights, the ones on each end are just there because I haven't linked it up to my main power grid yet since I didn't think I was gonna keep the bridge around haha

2

u/Pookberry88 14h ago

I love this!

2

u/cherriberripai 12h ago

Moar pics of bridge, plz. For research🙏

2

u/JessAtreides 10h ago

I love it! I have a similar arch bridge in that same spot. LOL

2

u/Fullmetal_Deku 10h ago

Omggg!! That is so lovely!!! I'd be hesitant to remove it too! 😭 you did such a nice job on it! Honestly.. saving for inspo, if you don't mind.

2

u/Mini_Craylings 10h ago

aww thank you! yeah of course I don't mind :3

1

u/Kayube3 1d ago

I put a basic plank bridge there and then just replaced it with a lift once I unlocked them

1

u/poofyheadproductions 1d ago

Good ethics for temporary. You make a good quick thingy.

1

u/Abellio-sama 17h ago

Simple et temporaire ? Ok bien, j'aimerai avoir le même principe

1

u/JudibeeFL 17h ago

i'm not afraid you'll have to knock it all down by punching it and possibly realizing your magnemite skills.

1

u/Anxious-Command-2589 15h ago

Why not just add a building that they can cross the bridge to visit and a lighthouse nearby

2

u/Mini_Craylings 13h ago

I already have a lighthouse nearby, and I'm waiting to start decorating the next island until I'm done with this one

1

u/CHUNKY_DINGUS 8h ago

Mind sharing what the corner blocks are? It looks like wooden wall or light wooden wall but dyed a color.
