I think its most fundamental to start any project with how you want it to function. You don't build a town for the sake of building it, you build it because of the ideas and concepts that motivate you to build such a town . You don't build a spaceship to the moon if you didn't have the idea/dream of going to the moon in the first place, who would be motivated enough to build such technology without dreams, however far-fetched they seem.
Do you feel OP has a good and realistic chance of making a success of this? And belief enough that you would be willing to put your own time/energy/resources into it?
