Nether Highways

The four Nether Highways are the most frequently used roads by 9b6t players. They start at Nether 0 0 and extend in all four cardinal directions. They are named after the Minecraft coordinate system axis that they follow. The highways started being extended by Baritone bots in January 2020. Stormfront took on maintenance of Y=120 highways and diagonal highways in June 2020. Stormfront stopped working on the highways and officially endorsed the Greater Good Gang (GGG) on July 23rd, 2020.

Maintenance
Around January 16th, 2020, the old Y=113 Nether highways had been extended with obsidian roads until 5k with the help of Baritone bots. Venturello extended the -Z Highway from 1x2 to 2x3 for easier use of elytra flight and donkey transportation until around 10k Nether/80k Overworld. One day CyberTF2 decided that he wanted the server to move from Y=113 to Y=120, so he and NekoPvP raised the Nether hub and started working on highways at Y=120. They built new highways to 150 blocks out and built the 150 ring road with the help of others. Upon auburnhud2 joining the server in May 2020, he saw there was some progress made on the Y=120 highways but was not satisfied with how short they were. auburnhud2 was so furious when he saw the Y=113 highways were the main highways that he started to drastically extend the highways at Y=120, like they should be.

The Great Nether Revival
On July 22nd, 2020, an influx of new players were on the server. auburnhud2 wanted to recruit some of them as highway slaves, and gave them pickaxes and echests. While the slaves were clearing out the Nether hub, other players such as Hokindo9000 and CyberTF2 also joined in on the efforts. Afterwards, auburnhud2 created a Discord server called the "Greater Good Gang" to coordinate Nether highway building, repair, and other public works projects. GGG is currently the primary maintainer of all Nether highways.

Diagonal Highways
Travel along the diagonal highways can be faster than traveling on the cardinal highways by up to a factor of $$\sqrt{2} \approx 1.4142$$. Construction of the Y=120 diagonal obsidian highways started on June 20, 2020 by auburnhud2.

+X+Z Highway
This obsidian highway was built by auburnhud2 to 500. XXWW extended the highway to 1000 on July 26th, 2020.

-X+Z Highway
This obsidian highway was built by auburnhud2 to 500.
 * Obsidian Highway: 500 Nether/4k Overworld

+X-Z Highway

Ring Roads
Ring roads are square obsidian highways centered around Nether 00 at various significant coordinates. Ring roads significantly improve travel between cardinal and diagonal highways.
