<br />
"Calleta City" is an anachronistic reference to a southwestern part of [[Heterocera]] continent with many urban landscapes. According to [[City & Town]] definitions, it was called a city because it covers multiple regions.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Unlike other pre-defined urban places, like Bay City, Nautilus City or Kama City, Calleta was not intentionally built that way. Its composing regions don't share a common word. Even so, from beginning, Calleta was one of the first regions in Heterocera and the most important place for new settlers to start their journey. Its strategic position helped it to grow.<br />
<br />
In Calleta, Neumogen and Columbia large railway maze stations were built. Later, many of them changed their forms and even transformed.<br />
<br />
In A.D. 2014, Calleta was transforming. Someone set up the Embarcadero a bomb in late 2013 and the Neumogen maze is under reconstruction. In summer 2014, [[Calleta Monorail]] was born, covering a large surface in Columbia region.<br />
<br />
In September 21th 2014, Calleta was the center of a massive [[Griefer]] attack that paralyzed all traffic for 10 hours.<br />
<br />
Over the years, "Calleta City" references lost favor or relevance. Four of the original regions that were defined as "Calleta City" (Calleta, Sweetbay, Cecrpoia and Columbia) are now mostly either directly or indirectly recognized as "Port Calleta". This is a collaboration of multiple property owners and parcels in the area directly related to air, space, marine, auto and rail transportation. This area is a transportation hub where all forms of SL transportation converge at one common district.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is in the South West Plain, with an average [[Altitude]] of 25 meters and sea contact. The plain continues to West. To North, the low mountains start to rise. To East, the Inner Delta is very close. To South, the ANWR channel (see [[Transcontinental Channels]]) is nearby.<br />
<br />
The below references are legacy references. Most are outdated but left for historical context.<br />
<br />
It is composed of the following region (in alphabetic order):<br />
*Burns - a transitory landscape between urban Neumogen and rural West plain<br />
*Calleta - heart of the city, with many buildings<br />
*Cercopia - the docks and the gateway to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Columbia - has urban streets, a harbor, SLRR and Monorail connections, alternative ferry to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Euryalus - transition to the delta<br />
*Hera - suburbs, residential area and railways<br />
*Lebeau - suburbs, representance from [[Lionheart Microcontinent]]<br />
*Neumogen - also known as Tokyo, a railway maze<br />
*Oculea- a transitory landscape<br />
*Sweetbay - suburbs in South<br />
*Tuliptree - headquaters of [[Virtual Railway Consortium]]<br />
<br />
== Transportation ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is the most important intersection in Heterocera, for roads, railways, waterways and air transportation. <br />
<br />
'''Airports''' There are two airports in the Calleta City area. Port Calleta (SLCI) in Cecropia is the gateway to Heterocera, in the Cecropia region, with a direct and unobstructed landing path from the ANWR strait.<br />
<br />
Hinamizawa Airport (SLNZ)is located in Neumogen. Since there are not many parcels of [[Land With Restricted Access]] around, airplanes can fly basically to any direction.<br />
<br />
'''Railways''' All regions except Euryalus have railway access. Also, many of the buildings existing in Calleta are railway-themed. The main line starts from Tuliptree, then goes through Sweetbay, Columbia, Sweetbay again, Calleta, Oculea, Neumogen. Many private-owned railways exist in the area. The [[West Atoll Railroad]] started from Neumogen and connected all the region in the South West Plain. WARR holdings in Neumogen and Burns are now owned by the Hinamizawa Airport. From Burns to Grote, ending at Sandhill Sage Road, is owned by Govorner Linden. The remainder of the former WARR has been cleared of all rails and is designated as "Linden Right of Way". <br />
<br />
Other two railways once connected Neumogen with region in North West (Hera, Griffin and Rustic). They changed their shapes many times and currently they start from Oculea. Another, less known railway, is Oculea - Lebeau, that ends in a train depot. From that depot you can get a landmark to [[Lionheart Microcontinent]]. The only remaining part of these lines now ends at Route 1.<br />
<br />
The [[GSLR]] is a strategic and historical railway that connects Heterocera with Sansara. It starts in [[Calleta]], then continues to [[Cecropia]], where you can take a ferry to Purple station and continue your journey in Sansara.<br />
<br />
Railway map changes every month. For example, at some point in 2013 there was a large train depot in the center of Calleta. It was replaced with Urban Degenerate (see below). Eventually Urban Degenerate abandoned much of its land in Calleta and the [[ALPHA]] Center moved in. ALPHA abandoned their holdings in Calleta and much of the land is now part of [[Calleta Union Station]], a depot whose construction began in late 2013. The railways to Hera and Rustic changed their shapes many times. In summer 2013 there was a long tunnel in Hera. Then, the Rustic rail vanished for a while. The cosmic railway, that connects Neumogen with a high skybox with the help of an invisible railway, changed its shape many times. Late in December 2013 Neumogen railway maze vanished without a warning and Hera-Rustic railways were connected to the main line from Oculea.<br />
<br />
A great improvement was in summer 2014, when [[Calleta Monorail]] was created on abandoned fields in Columbia and Cecropia. The monorail was closed in August 2017.<br />
<br />
Railways have automated transportation. There are many trains seen every day.<br />
<br />
'''Roadways''' Calleta is an important intersection. Road access is easy to North, East and West (and then to the entire continent). Neumogen is an important starting point for trips to Heterocera mountains (see [[Mountains Of Heterocera]] for more data).<br />
<br />
Since West Atoll Railroad has been abandoned, the road network must take all the traffic WARR had in past.<br />
<br />
There is automated road transportation. Yavanna Llanfair script pods can be found on most all roads and rails on the grid. Also frequently seen on the rails and waterways are automated trams and boats operated by Ana.<br />
<br />
'''Waterways'''<br />
<br />
Cercopia is the gateway to Sansara. For the first settlers, this was the place they arrived after passing through the ANWR channel. Cercopia has its own docks and so do all regions close to the shores: Calleta, Tuliptree or Hera. Unlike other places, Heterocera has official automated water transportation. There are 3 ferry routes through Calleta city: Cercopia - Purple, Tuliptree - Bay City and Tuliptree - Bhaga. Sometimes, also Yava script pods can be found sailing small distances.<br />
<br />
== Important Places ==<br />
<br />
[[Calleta Union Station]] is a large train station in Calleta City, in the [[Calleta]] region. It connects with the main [[SLRR]] line to the east and the Northern Continent branch of the [[GSLR]] to the west. The station has three boarding platforms, two alongside station land track and one alongside the GSLR line itself, which can be used by trains that wish to stop at the station but do not wish to turn off the GSLR line.<br />
<br />
The '''Hobo Railroad Infohub''', located in Calleta, is an official SecondLife Infohub, owned by Governor Linden but operated and maintained mostly by a group of long term citizens. It is in the theme of a depression era hobo encampment, and set the tone for the original theme of Calleta.<br />
<br />
Urban Degenerate was formerly the center of Calleta City. It was a Soviet-themed place, with a lot of radioactive waste, built on the ruins of Calleta railway depot. Everything was rusted, toxic and full of Communist symbols. It even included a railway station named Chernobyl (cyrillic writing) and a subway station too.<br />
<br />
The Embarcadero/Columbia Mall used to be an important structure, surrounded by a large boulevard with its own tram. Unfortunately, it got blown up and the land it occupied is now an open field.<br />
<br />
Tuliptree is important for its railway station and contains a [[VRC]] center.<br />

<div>Calleta Union Station is a central connection point linking all of the major transportation centers with the gateway to the [[Heterocera]] continent. It is located in [[Calleta]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Calleta Union Station was originally developed in early 2014 as an 1890's themed urban grunge station to fit in with the overall theme of the Calleta area. In early 2018, the station changed hands and was renamed Smugglers Calleta Station and operated in partnership with what was then known as Smugglers Port. <br />
<br />
The station theme was updated to a 1940's style theme and transformed to better integrate with Smugglers Port and other areas around Calleta.<br />
<br />
In November of 2019, the station was changed back to the original name of Calleta Union Station as Smugglers Port changed ownership and was renamed to Port Calleta.<br />
<br />
Calleta Union Station and Port Calleta Intercontinental Airport continue to operate as a joint transportation hub, serving the southwest area of Heterocera. <br />
<br />

Sound Synthesis<br />
[pardon the ramble... if it is inappropriate here please contact me]<br />
<br />
IMHO a much ignored aspect of game sound design is Sound Synthesis. Presently the pervasive model is 'event driven file playback' which, although often workable (e.g. gunshots, explosions, physical interactions), also limits the sound designer's ability to craft more dynamic, deeply interactive sonic events.<br />
A simple example of this would be: <br />
Imagine a 'machine', emitting a low rumble, with a switch on the side which when touched, changed the sound (say to a higher pitch).<br />
In contrast, imagine the same machine with a lever on it, which allowed the user to arbitrarily change the sound (again say pitch) as they interacted with it.<br />
<br />
Whereas the former can be created with well crafted looping file playback and an interactive trigger to another looping file.... <br />
the latter (arbitrary interaction on the users part) would be almost impossible to create using only 'file playback'. <br />
Instead, this type of dynamic interaction can only be created using standard sound design synthesis tools (oscillators, filters, etc.). <br />
And a quick look at the API of sound engine for SL (FMOD) reveals that it is fully capable of this.<br />
<br />
So it is my suggestion that these features be revealed to the designer.<br />
<br />
Wether this is functionally possible I do not know... but if so: It would allow sound designers to craft much more dynamic and interactive sonic content.<br />

There are 3 ferry routes through Calleta city: Cercopia - Purple, Tuliptree - Bay City and Tuliptree - Bhaga. Sometimes, also Yava script pods can be found sailing small distances.<br />
<br />
== Important Places ==<br />
<br />
[[Calleta Union Station]] is a large train station in Calleta City, in the [[Calleta]] region. It connects with the main [[SLRR]] line to the east and the Northern Continent branch of the [[GSLR]] to the west. The station has three boarding platforms, two alongside station land track and one alongside the GSLR line itself, which can be used by trains that wish to stop at the station but do not wish to turn off the GSLR line.<br />
<br />
The '''Hobo Railroad Infohub''', located in Calleta, is an official SecondLife Infohub, owned by Governor Linden but operated and maintained mostly by a group of long term citizens. It is in the theme of a depression era hobo encampment, and set the tone for the original theme of Calleta.<br />
<br />
Urban Degenerate was formerly the center of Calleta City. It was a Soviet-themed place, with a lot of radioactive waste, built on the ruins of Calleta railway depot. Everything was rusted, toxic and full of Communist symbols. It even included a railway station named Chernobyl (cyrillic writing) and a subway station too.<br />
<br />
The Embarcadero/Columbia Mall used to be an important structure, surrounded by a large boulevard with its own tram. Unfortunately, it got blown up and the land it occupied is now an open field.<br />
<br />
Tuliptree is important for its railway station and contains a [[VRC]] center.<br />

<br />
Calleta is a part of [[Heterocera]] continent with many urban landscapes. According to [[City & Town]] definitions, it is a city because it covers multiple regions.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Unlike other pre-defined urban places, like Bay City, Nautilus City or Kama City, Calleta was not intentionatelly built that way. Its composing regions don't share a common word. Even so, from beginning, Calleta was one of the first regioin in Heterocera and the most important place for new settlers to start their journey. Its strategic position helped it to grow.<br />
<br />
In Calleta, Neumogen and Columbia large railway maze stations were built. Later, many of them changed their forms and even transformed.<br />
<br />
In A.D. 2014, Calleta was transforming. Someone set up the Embarcadero a bomb in late 2013 and the Neumogen maze is under reconstruction. In summer 2014, [[Calleta Monorail]] was born, covering a large surface in Columbia region.<br />
<br />
In September 21th 2014, Calleta was the center of a massive [[Griefer]] attack that paralyzed all traffic for 10 hours.<br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is in the South West Plain, with an average [[Altitude]] of 25 meters and sea contact. The plain continues to West. To North, the low mountains start to rise. To East, the Inner Delta is very close. To South, the ANWR channel (see [[Transcontinental Channels]]) is nearby.<br />
<br />
It is composed of the following region (in alphabetic order):<br />
*Burns - a transitory landscape between urban Neumogen and rural West plain<br />
*Calleta - heart of the city, with many buildings<br />
*Cercopia - the docks and the gateway to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Columbia - has urban streets, a harbor, SLRR and Monorail connections, alternative ferry to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Euryalus - transition to the delta<br />
*Hera - suburbs, residential area and railways<br />
*Lebeau - suburbs, representance from [[Lionheart Microcontinent]]<br />
*Neumogen - also known as Tokyo, a railway maze<br />
*Oculea- a transitory landscape<br />
*Sweetbay - suburbs in South<br />
*Tuliptree - headquaters of [[Virtual Railway Consortium]]<br />
<br />
== Transporation ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is the most important intersection in Heterocera, for roads, railways, waterways and air transportation. <br />
<br />
'''Airports''' There are two airports in the Calleta City area. Port Calleta (SLCI) in Cecropia is the gateway to Heterocera, in the Cecropia region, with a direct and unobstructed landing path from the ANWR strait.<br />
<br />
Hinamizawa Airport (SLNZ)is located in Neumogen. Since there are not many parcels of [[Land With Restricted Access]] around, airplanes can fly basically to any direction.<br />
<br />
'''Railways''' All regions except Euryalus have railway access. Also, many of the buildings existing in Calleta are railway-themed. The main line starts from Tuliptree, then goes through Sweetbay, Columbia, Sweetbay again, Calleta, Oculea, Neumogen. Many private-owned railways exist in the area. The [[West Atoll Railroad]] started from Neumogen and connected all the region in the South West Plain. WARR holdings in Neumogen and Burns are now owned by the Hinamizawa Airport. From Burns to Grote, ending at Sandhill Sage Road, is owned by Govorner Linden. The remainder of the former WARR has been cleared of all rails and is designated as "Linden Right of Way". <br />
<br />
Other two railways once connected Neumogen with region in North West (Hera, Griffin and Rustic). They changed their shapes many times and currently they start from Oculea. Another, less known railway, is Oculea - Lebeau, that ends in a train depot. From that depot you can get a landmark to [[Lionheart Microcontinent]]. The only remaining part of these lines now ends at Route 1.<br />
<br />
The [[GSLR]] is a strategic and historical railway that connects Heterocera with Sansara. It starts in [[Calleta]], then continues to [[Cecropia]], where you can take a ferry to Purple station and continue your journey in Sansara.<br />
<br />
Railway map changes every month. For example, at some point in 2013 there was a large train depot in the center of Calleta. It was replaced with Urban Degenerate (see below). Eventually Urban Degenerate abandoned much of its land in Calleta and the [[ALPHA]] Center moved in. ALPHA abandoned their holdings in Calleta and much of the land is now part of [[Calleta Union Station]], a depot whose construction began in late 2013. The railways to Hera and Rustic changed their shapes many times. In summer 2013 there was a long tunnel in Hera. Then, the Rustic rail vanished for a while. The cosmic railway, that connects Neumogen with a high skybox with the help of an invisible railway, changed its shape many times. Late in December 2013 Neumogen railway maze vanished without a warning and Hera-Rustic railways were connected to the main line from Oculea.<br />
<br />
A great improvement was in summer 2014, when [[Calleta Monorail]] was created on abandoned fields in Columbia and Cecropia. The monorail was closed in August 2017.<br />
<br />
Railways have automated transportation. There are many trains seen every day.<br />
<br />
'''Roadways''' Calleta is an important intersection. Road access is easy to North, East and West (and then to the entire continent). Neumogen is an important starting point for trips to Heterocera mountains (see [[Mountains Of Heterocera]] for more data).<br />
<br />
Since West Atoll Railroad has been abandoned, the road network must take all the traffic WARR had in past.<br />
<br />
There is automated road transportation. Yavanna Llanfair script pods can be found on most all roads and rails on the grid. Also frequently seen on the rails and waterways are automated trams and boats operated by Ana.<br />
<br />
'''Waterways'''<br />
<br />
Cercopia is the gateway to Sansara. For the first settlers, this was the place they arrived after passing through the ANWR channel. Cercopia has its own docks and so do all regions close to the shores: Calleta, Tuliptree or Hera. Unlike other places, Heterocera has official automated water transportation. There are 3 ferry routes through Calleta city: Cercopia - Purple, Tuliptree - Bay City and Tuliptree - Bhaga. Sometimes, also Yava script pods can be found sailing small distances.<br />

Everything was rusted, toxic and full of Communist symbols. It even included a railway station named Chernobyl (cyrillic writing) and a subway station too.<br />
<br />
The Embarcadero/Columbia Mall used to be an important structure, surrounded by a large boulevard with its own tram. Unfortunately, it got blown up and the land it occupied is now an open field.<br />
<br />
Tuliptree is important for its railway station and contains a [[VRC]] center.<br />

Air transportation is important for long distance. However, since teleporting is the most used way to travel, air transportation is more a hobby, a pleasure or a passion. Just like road, railway or sea transportation, 3 things are required: a vehicle (airplane, helicopter or a baloon), a place to rezz it (an airport, heliport or something improved for this purpose) and a route (air route). There is one major exception from this rule: Many residents visit various places without an airplane, by just flying, with or without wings.<br />
<br />
== Airports and related places ==<br />
<br />
For small vehicles like a balloon or a helicopter, a rezz zone can be small: a road, rail or boat rezz zone is large enough. Many residents can rezz these vehicles at their own home. The following list includes all airports 'Second Life Geography' team found on the grid. Some of them are [[Protected Land]], while some are private land, with a friendly owner that allows you to rezz a plane. There still are some airports created only for the owner (where vehicles cannot be rezzed) or created just for decorative or roleplay reasons.<br />

<br />
== Air Routes ==<br />
<br />
Unlike cars and trains, air vehicles can fly to almost avery direction. Also, unlike real planes, SL air vehicles have two major problems: First, they cannot fly accross the intersim void and second, they cannot enter [[Land With Restricted Access]]. To avoid these two main problems, many pilots follow maps.<br />
<br />
For continents (both Linden-owned and private-owned), there is [[Protected Land]], that includes roads, railways and waterways. Sometimes, protected land might include parks and paths between parcels. Protected airways are in fact protected ground ways. One problem is that in some places, like [[Premium Continents]], majority of parks have script restrictions, that can seriously affect a flying machine. For the Linden-owned continents (mainland), parcels of [[Abandoned Land]] can be used as an alternative way for air vehicles.<br />
<br />
Very interesting is the fact that 28 airports are outside the continents, while 43 are inside continents. Flying in a [[Microcontinent]] is limited due to its size, but flying in a single sim (like in a [[Sim Cluster]] or in the [[Unassociated Sims]]) is something more simbolic. Even so, it shows that many residents have a great enthusiasm for flying machines.<br />

<br />
== Air Routes ==<br />
<br />
Unlike cars and trains, air vehicles can fly to almost avery direction. Also, unlike real planes, SL air vehicles have two major problems: First, they cannot fly accross the intersim void and second, they cannot enter [[Land With Restricted Access]]. To avoid these two main problems, many pilots follow maps.<br />
<br />
For continents (both Linden-owned and private-owned), there is [[Protected Land]], that includes roads, railways and waterways. Sometimes, protected land might include parks and paths between parcels. Protected airways are in fact protected ground ways. One problem is that in some places, like [[Premium Continents]], majority of parks have script restrictions, that can seriously affect a flying machine. For the Linden-owned continents (mainland), parcels of [[Abandoned Land]] can be used as an alternative way for air vehicles.<br />
<br />
Very interesting is the fact that 28 airports are outside the continents, while 43 are inside continents. Flying in a [[Microcontinent]] is limited due to its size, but flying in a single sim (like in a [[Sim Cluster]] or in the [[Unassociated Sims]]) is something more simbolic. Even so, it shows that many residents have a great enthusiasm for flying machines.<br />

<div>Calleta Union Station is a central connection point linking all of the major transportation centers with the gateway to the [[Heterocera]] continent. It is located in [[Calleta]], which is the central hub of [[Calleta City]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Calleta Union Station was originally developed in early 2014 as an 1890's themed urban grunge station to fit in with the overall theme of the Calleta area. In early 2018, the station changed hands and was renamed Smugglers Calleta Station and operated in partnership with what was then known as Smugglers Port. <br />
<br />
The station theme was updated to a 1940's style theme and transformed to better integrate with Smugglers Port and other areas around Calleta.<br />
<br />
In November of 2019, the station was changed back to the original name of Calleta Union Station as Smugglers Port changed ownership and was renamed to Port Calleta.<br />
<br />
Calleta Union Station and Port Calleta continue to operate as a joint transportation hub serving the southwest area of Heterocera, also known as [[Calleta City]]<br />

Nova Quine</div>Starbuckk Serapishttps://wiki.secondlife.com/w/index.php?title=Calleta_Monorail&diff=1209122Calleta Monorail2020-02-19T00:08:55Z<p>Starbuckk Serapis: </p>
<hr />
<div>[[File:Calletamonorail.png|200px|thumb|right|Calleta Monorail]]<br />
<br />
Calleta Monorail is a new multisim railway system, created in [[Calleta City]], [[Heterocera]].<br />
<br />
In summer 2014, Ralf Halfisch railway complex vanished from its previous location (close to Anilis) and moved in [[Calleta City]]. The result was an economic boom for the city, highly affected by the death of [[West Atoll Railroad]]. Many parcels from Columbia, Cecropia and even Calleta were included into this great rail project. Construction advanced very fast.<br />
<br />
There are actually two monorail branches and a railway. All 3 have the same terminal station, close to a harbor. The first monorail connects this harbor with Calleta sim Union Station, in Calleta. The second one, moves to West, to Cecropia, where it stops at TV Tower, close to [[GSLR]] tracks. The railway is connected to main rail network in Columbia. Monorail lines are elevated, except for small parts of their routes. They use the same model of track used in some parts by [[East River Railway]] and use vehicles similar to those existing on [[Second Norway Railway]] or [[German Railway]], with a modern design. <br />
<br />
The other [[Monorails]] on the grid use suspended vehicles, but Calleta Monorail uses a wide track.<br />
<br />
[[Automated Transportation]] is present. There are trains moving on the two monorail lines. No vehicle is currently driving on railway. Also, at every hour, a ferry is connecting the harbor with Purple Docks. The connection to Calleta Sim Union Station is very important, because it connects the monorail system with entire network system of [[Heterocera]], with [[GSLR]], with [[SLGI Trains]] and [[Yava Script Pods]] that transit the area.<br />
<br />
NOTE: Calleta Monorail was removed during the transformation of Calleta City Airport to Smugglers Port in late 2017.<br />

<br />
Calleta is a part of [[Heterocera]] continent with many urban landscapes. According to [[City & Town]] definitions, it is a city because it covers multiple sims.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Unlike other pre-defined urban places, like Bay City, Nautilus City or Kama City, Calleta was not intentionatelly built that way. Its composing sims don't share a common word. Even so, from beginning, Calleta was one of the first sims in Heterocera and the most important place for new settlers to start their journey. Its strategic position helped it to grow.<br />
<br />
In Calleta, Neumogen and Columbia large railway maze stations were built. Later, many of them changed their forms and even transformed.<br />
<br />
In A.D. 2014, Calleta was transforming. Someone set up the Embarcadero a bomb in late 2013 and the Neumogen maze is under reconstruction. In summer 2014, [[Calleta Monorail]] was born, covering a large surface in Columbia sim.<br />
<br />
In September 21th 2014, Calleta was the center of a massive [[Griefer]] attack that paralyzed all traffic for 10 hours.<br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is in the South West Plain, with an average [[Altitude]] of 25 meters and sea contact. The plain continues to West. To North, the low mountains start to rise. To East, the Inner Delta is very close. To South, the ANWR channel (see [[Transcontinental Channels]]) is nearby.<br />
<br />
It is composed of the following sims (in alphabetic order):<br />
*Burns - a transitory landscape between urban Neumogen and rural West plain<br />
*Calleta - heart of the city, with many buildings<br />
*Cercopia - the docks and the gateway to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Columbia - has urban streets, a harbor, SLRR and Monorail connections, alternative ferry to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Euryalus - transition to the delta<br />
*Hera - suburbs, residential area and railways<br />
*Lebeau - suburbs, representance from [[Lionheart Microcontinent]]<br />
*Neumogen - also known as Tokyo, a railway maze<br />
*Oculea- a transitory landscape<br />
*Sweetbay - suburbs in South<br />
*Tuliptree - headquaters of [[Virtual Railway Consortium]]<br />
<br />
== Transporation ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is the most important intersection in Heterocera, for roads, railways, waterways and air transportation. <br />
<br />
'''Airlines''' There is an airport close to Neumogen. Since there are not many parcels of [[Land With Restricted Access]] around, airplanes can fly basically to any direction. As well, there is an airport on Cecropia with direct unblockable connection to the ANWR Channel.<br />
<br />
'''Railways''' All sims except Euryalus have railway access. Also, many of the buildings existing in Calleta are railway-themed. The main line starts from Tuliptree, then goes through Sweetbay, Columbia, Sweetbay again, Calleta, Oculea, Neumogen. Many private-owned railways exist in the area. The [[West Atoll Railroad]] started from Neumogen and connected all the sims in the South West Plain. Currently, only Neumogen-Burns is functional. Other two railways connected Neumogen with sims in Sorth West (Hera, Griffin and Rustic). They changed their shapes many times and currently they start from Oculea. Another, less known railway, is Oculea - Lebeau, that ends in a train depot. From that depot you can get a landmark to [[Lionheart Microcontinent]].<br />
<br />
The [[GSLR]] is a strategic and historical railway that connects Heterocera with Sansara. It starts in [[Calleta]], then continues to [[Cecropia]], where you can take a ferry to Purple station and continue your journey in Sansara.<br />
<br />
Railway map changes every month. For example, at some point in 2013 there was a large train depot in the center of Calleta. It was replaced with Urban Degenerate (see below). Eventually Urban Degenerate abandoned much of its land in Calleta and the [[ALPHA]] Center moved in. ALPHA abandoned their holdings in Calleta and much of the land is now part of [[Calleta Union Station]], a depot whose construction began in late 2013. The railways to Hera and Rustic changed their shapes many times. In summer 2013 there was a long tunnel in Hera. Then, the Rustic rail vanished for a while. The cosmic railway, that connects Neumogen with a high skybox with the help of an invisible railway, changed its shape many times. Late in December 2013 Neumogen railway maze vanished without a warning and Hera-Rustic railways were connected to the main line from Oculea.<br />
<br />
A great improvement was in summer 2014, when [[Calleta Monorail]] was created on abandoned fields in Columbia and Cecropia.<br />
<br />
Railways have automated transportation. There are many trains seen every day.<br />
<br />
'''Roadways''' Calleta is an important intersection. Road access is easy to North, East and West (and then to the entire continent). Neumogen is an important starting point for trips to Heterocera mountains (see [[Mountains Of Heterocera]] for more data).<br />
<br />
Since West Atoll Railroad has been abandoned, the road network must take all the traffic WARR had in past.<br />
<br />
There is automated road transportation. Yava script pods can be found on all roads and not only.<br />
<br />
'''Waterways'''<br />
<br />
Cercopia is the gateway to Sansara. For the first settlers, this was the place they arrived after passing through the ANWR channel. Cercopia has its own docks and so do all sims close to the shores: Calleta, Tuliptree or Hera. Unlike other places, Heterocera has official automated water transportation. There are 3 ferry routes through Calleta city: Cercopia - Purple, Tuliptree - Bay City and Tuliptree - Bhaga. Sometimes, also Yava script pods can be found sailing small distances.<br />
<br />
== Important Places ==<br />
<br />
[[Calleta Union Station]] is a large train station in Calleta City, in the [[Calleta]] sim proper. It connects with the main [[SLRR]] line to the east and the Northern Continent branch of the [[GSLR]] to the west, as well as the Monorail with connections to connection regions.. The station has three boarding platforms, two alongside station land track and one alongside the GSLR line itself, which can be used by trains that wish to stop at the station but do not wish to turn off the GSLR line.<br />
<br />
Urban Degenerate was formerly the center of Calleta City. It was a Soviet-themed place, with a lot of radioactive waste, built on the ruins of Calleta railway depot. Everything was rusted, toxic and full of Communist symbols. It even included a railway station named Chernobyl (cyrillic writing) and a subway station too.<br />
<br />
The Embarcadero/Columbia Mall used to be an important structure, surrounded by a large boulevard with its own tram. Unfortunately, it got blown up and the land it occupied is now an open field.<br />
<br />
Tuliptree is important for its railway station and contains a [[VRC]] center.<br />
<br />
The fate of Neumogen sim is currently unknown. It had a large, modern railway station that currently is deleted.<br />

Everything was rusted, toxic and full of Communist symbols. It even included a railway station named Chernobyl (cyrillic writing) and a subway station too.<br />
<br />
The Embarcadero/Columbia Mall used to be an important structure, surrounded by a large boulevard with its own tram. Unfortunately, it got blown up and the land it occupied is now an open field.<br />

<br />
Calleta is a part of [[Heterocera]] continent with many urban landscapes. According to [[City & Town]] definitions, it is a city because it covers multiple sims.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Unlike other pre-defined urban places, like Bay City, Nautilus City or Kama City, Calleta was not intentionatelly built that way. Its composing sims don't share a common word. Even so, from beginning, Calleta was one of the first sims in Heterocera and the most important place for new settlers to start their journey. Its strategic position helped it to grow.<br />
<br />
In Calleta, Neumogen and Columbia large railway maze stations were built. Later, many of them changed their forms and even transformed.<br />
<br />
In A.D. 2014, Calleta was transforming. Someone set up the Embarcadero a bomb in late 2013 and the Neumogen maze is under reconstruction. In summer 2014, [[Calleta Monorail]] was born, covering a large surface in Columbia sim.<br />
<br />
In September 21th 2014, Calleta was the center of a massive [[Griefer]] attack that paralyzed all traffic for 10 hours.<br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is in the South West Plain, with an average [[Altitude]] of 25 meters and sea contact. The plain continues to West. To North, the low mountains start to rise. To East, the Inner Delta is very close. To South, the ANWR channel (see [[Transcontinental Channels]]) is nearby.<br />
<br />
It is composed of the following sims (in alphabetic order):<br />
*Burns - a transitory landscape between urban Neumogen and rural West plain<br />
*Calleta - heart of the city, with many buildings<br />
*Cercopia - the docks and the gateway to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Columbia - has urban streets, a harbor, SLRR and Monorail connections, alternative ferry to [[Sansara]]<br />
*Euryalus - transition to the delta<br />
*Hera - suburbs, residential area and railways<br />
*Lebeau - suburbs, representance from [[Lionheart Microcontinent]]<br />
*Neumogen - also known as Tokyo, a railway maze<br />
*Oculea- a transitory landscape<br />
*Sweetbay - suburbs in South<br />
*Tuliptree - headquaters of [[Virtual Railway Consortium]]<br />
<br />
== Transporation ==<br />
<br />
Calleta is the most important intersection in Heterocera, for roads, railways, waterways and air transportation. <br />
<br />
'''Airlines''' There is an airport close to Neumogen. Since there are not many parcels of [[Land With Restricted Access]] around, airplanes can fly basically to any direction. As well, there is an airport on Cecropia with direct unblockable connection to the ANWR Channel.<br />
<br />
'''Railways''' All sims except Euryalus have railway access. Also, many of the buildings existing in Calleta are railway-themed. The main line starts from Tuliptree, then goes through Sweetbay, Columbia, Sweetbay again, Calleta, Oculea, Neumogen. Many private-owned railways exist in the area. The [[West Atoll Railroad]] started from Neumogen and connected all the sims in the South West Plain. Currently, only Neumogen-Burns is functional. Other two railways connected Neumogen with sims in Sorth West (Hera, Griffin and Rustic). They changed their shapes many times and currently they start from Oculea. Another, less known railway, is Oculea - Lebeau, that ends in a train depot. From that depot you can get a landmark to [[Lionheart Microcontinent]].<br />
<br />
The [[GSLR]] is a strategic and historical railway that connects Heterocera with Sansara. It starts in [[Calleta]], then continues to [[Cecropia]], where you can take a ferry to Purple station and continue your journey in Sansara.<br />
<br />
Railway map changes every month. For example, at some point in 2013 there was a large train depot in the center of Calleta. It was replaced with Urban Degenerate (see below). Eventually Urban Degenerate abandoned much of its land in Calleta and the [[ALPHA]] Center moved in. ALPHA abandoned their holdings in Calleta and much of the land is now part of the [[Calleta Union Station]], a depot whose construction began in late 2013. The railways to Hera and Rustic changed their shapes many times. In summer 2013 there was a long tunnel in Hera. Then, the Rustic rail vanished for a while. The cosmic railway, that connects Neumogen with a high skybox with the help of an invisible railway, changed its shape many times. Late in December 2013 Neumogen railway maze vanished without a warning and Hera-Rustic railways were connected to the main line from Oculea.<br />
<br />
A great improvement was in summer 2014, when [[Calleta Monorail]] was created on abandoned fields in Columbia and Cecropia.<br />
<br />
Railways have automated transportation. There are many trains seen every day.<br />
<br />
'''Roadways''' Calleta is an important intersection. Road access is easy to North, East and West (and then to the entire continent). Neumogen is an important starting point for trips to Heterocera mountains (see [[Mountains Of Heterocera]] for more data).<br />
<br />
Since West Atoll Railroad has been abandoned, the road network must take all the traffic WARR had in past.<br />
<br />
There is automated road transportation. Yava script pods can be found on all roads and not only.<br />
<br />
'''Waterways'''<br />
<br />
Cercopia is the gateway to Sansara. For the first settlers, this was the place they arrived after passing through the ANWR channel. Cercopia has its own docks and so do all sims close to the shores: Calleta, Tuliptree or Hera. Unlike other places, Heterocera has official automated water transportation. There are 3 ferry routes through Calleta city: Cercopia - Purple, Tuliptree - Bay City and Tuliptree - Bhaga. Sometimes, also Yava script pods can be found sailing small distances.<br />
<br />
== Important Places ==<br />
<br />
The [[Calleta Union Station]] is a large train station in Calleta City, in the [[Calleta]] sim proper. It connects with the main [[SLRR]] line to the east and the Northern Continent branch of the [[GSLR]] to the west, as well as the Monorail with connections to connection regions.. The station has three boarding platforms, two alongside station land track and one alongside the GSLR line itself, which can be used by trains that wish to stop at the station but do not wish to turn off the GSLR line.<br />
<br />
Urban Degenerate was formerly the center of Calleta City. It was a Soviet-themed place, with a lot of radioactive waste, built on the ruins of Calleta railway depot. Everything was rusted, toxic and full of Communist symbols. It even included a railway station named Chernobyl (cyrillic writing) and a subway station too.<br />
<br />
The Embarcadero/Columbia Mall used to be an important structure, surrounded by a large boulevard with its own tram. Unfortunately, it got blown up and the land it occupied is now an open field.<br />

Tuliptree is important for its railway station and contains a [[VRC]] center.<br />

<div>Calleta Union Station is a central connection point linking all of the major transportation centers with the gateway to the [[Heterocera]] continent. It is located in [[Calleta]], which is the central hub of [[Calleta City]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
Calleta Union Station was originally developed in early 2014 as an 1890's themed urban grunge station to fit in with the overall theme of the Calleta area. In early 2018, the station changed hands and was renamed Smugglers Calleta Station and operated in partnership with what was then known as Smugglers Port. <br />
<br />
The station theme was updated to a 1940's style theme and transformed to better integrate with Smugglers Port and other areas around Calleta.<br />
<br />
In November of 2019, the station was changed back to the original name of Calleta Union Station as Smugglers Port changed ownership and was renamed to Port Calleta.<br />
<br />
Calleta Union Station and Port Calleta continue to operate as a joint transportation hub serving the southwest area of Heterocera, also known as [[Calleta City]]<br />

Urban Degenerate was formerly the center of Calleta City. It was a Soviet-themed place, with a lot of radioactive waste, built on the ruins of Calleta railway depot. Everything was rusted, toxic and full of Communist symbols. It even included a railway station named Chernobyl (cyrillic writing) and a subway station too.<br />
<br />
The Embarcadero/Columbia Mall used to be an important structure, surrounded by a large boulevard with its own tram. Unfortunately, it got blown up and the land it occupied is now an open field.<br />
