 Once the outline has been made, the base can be created. "Gen Buckets" can be used to alleviate the amount of manual block placement. Gen Buckets generate a specific block in a specific direction at a rate of 8 blocks/second. Block type and direction can be specified when being bought in the "Gen Buckets" section in <code>/shop</code>.
