A Factory Tycoon with a Player-Driven Economy (vanilla client)

Hello Reddit! The screenshots above are taken in the vanilla client, they're of an iron factory, the shafts rotate & everything.

I recently had the idea for a Minecraft server that I would love to play, a factory tycoon with a player driven economy. The basic idea is something like DemocracyCraft, but focused entirely on businesses, manufacturing, and industrial development. Players would start small, create their own company, build a factory, manufacture products, trade with other players, and gradually expand into larger industrial operations throughout the map.

The factory side would have a custom, Create-inspired feature set, with physical machines, production lines, logistics, transportation, and automation. The goal is for the factory itself to be an important part of the gameplay rather than just clicking menus to produce items.

I am searching for people that are interested in the idea, either to play it if it launches or to help make the server. I am a software engineer so I will take care of the programming (i've done some servers before), but would need some more people to help with everything else^ ^

I made a Discord server for anyone who is interested or curious: https://discord.gg/E7MxTkZ6Zp
