# Hyperloop
## THIS IS WORK IN PROGRESS !!!
**Use release ![v1.0](https://github.com/joe7575/Minetest-Hyperloop/archive/v1.0.zip) instead**
# Hyperloop v2
**A new evolution in the voxel word:**
## Minetest goes Hyperloop!
The fast and modern way of travelling.
* Hyperloop allows travelling from point point in seconds (900 km/h) :-)
* Hyperloop allows travelling from point to point in seconds (900 km/h) :-)
* Hyperloop tubes can be build in teamwork together with other players
* It can be used even on small servers without lagging
* No configuration or programming of the tube network is necessary (only the station names have to be entered)

## Migration from v1 to v2
The logic behind the tubes/shafts has changed. Hyperloop now uses tubelib2 as tube library.
That means, available worlds have to be migrated for the new tubes. This is done automatically but
has some risks. Therefore:
**I recommend to backup your world or test the migration from v1 to v2 on a copy of your world!!!**
## What is new in v2
- some textures changed
- the Elevator Shafts can now be used as ladder/climbing shafts
- the Crowbar is public available, but cracking a tube line need 'hyperloop' privs
- the Station Book is improved and simplified to find stations, junctions, and open tube ends
- a Waypoint plate is added to mark and easier find the tube destination
- Elevator shafts can be build in all directions (optional)
- WiFi Tubes can be crafted and placed by players (optional)
## Introduction
Hyperloop is passenger transportation system for travelling through evacuated tubes my means of passenger pods.
