Bang Tube

Do you want to travel faster across a mountain range? How about going deep into the ground and through the volcano tubes and all over the surrounding areas. Well just hop on in to one of these for a quick second. You'll be sent on your merry way to your destination by the power of lava and steam. Inside a Bang Tube, we'll be able to get to your destination. So strap on in and get ready for one insane fast ride and even a faster stop.

Warning for you Adventurers

Do not try changing your size to fit more into the Bing tubes. One of the first adventuring parties tried this to make it cheaper for them. They did this by having their wizard reduce their size. Making it more comfortable and able to get the whole party in one tube. The overall problem wasn't that they were trying to make it cheaper on themselves, it was that they had a very quick stop, and since they were not used to the smaller size they got bang-up pretty bad and their bodies were a bit queasy at the end. Yes, fitting taller folk down to the dwarven size, does help because the tubes are built for them. If you're not used to this size your reaction is going to be off. Also, the way you are internal feelings are going to be different and off. Changing your size will leave you regretting how you going to feel at the end of the ride. Remember you do have to make a return trip to leave.

Power Generation

Its power source is the fire Lay Line Crystals. but all it does is too engage the turbines and help with fire-resistant. it is also used to provide a magical signature for when it comes into the docking.

Propulsion

So the way that it moved is in two folds. one is surrounded by lava and flows with a natural curve. Two what are the turbines on it. it will draw the lava in and then sit right back out applying trust and momentum, and this doubles the speed of the lava flow. Most of the shoots they have built are caverns that are going about 30 miles an hour.

Armor and defense

Because it's made of titanium Coranite and had fire Lay Line Crystals crystals laid out through it. Is a very durable material that would take some of the strongest dwarven crafters several hours to get through. They would need to know how the material work. it can literally survive in magma so it is fireproof.

Hangars & docked vessels

So, the way the system works is that there are some sensors built into the ground. They will tell when Bang Tube is on its way. As it gets closer to its destination the turbines will turn off and spots in the cavern will start opening up to let lava in. When it gets to the destination it is stopped by metal clamps in front of it. It could be a gentle stop or could be a quick stop. All of this depends on how fast you were going. Then they use a crane to pull you out of there and put you on a platform to cool down. this platform is made out of the same material as all the other metal stuff used in this system. while you're cooling down, they put another one in and release the lava and the clamps and shoot it off. They have about a 5-minute turnaround before the pressure of the lava gets too much for the cavern. When the travel is done for the day. They just leave them on the platform to be used the next day.
Once the pot has cooled down the passenger will be told to leave their pod behind and get in line for the next one. During this time you have 15-20 minutes to relax and get ready for the next leg of your journey. When you get to the front of the line you must show them your ticket as proof that you paid to go to whichever dock is your end goal. Once you have reached your end location you will go through customs and be allowed into the cities
