Flying for vT
« on: July 10, 2012, 06:02:16 PM »
Not sure if this would be possible to code, But what if players could fly at the cost of vT? 2 vT per second? (this wouldn't apply if it were in the creative world)

It could also act as a vT-sink, and I'm pretty sure a lot of players would want to buy the power to fly temporarily.

Once you run out of enough vT to pay for the Flying you would lose the ability. The server would give you a warning if you are close to running out of vT so you could safely land.

Like this idea, but what if it was 20 vT for a minute? Because then it's better value.

How about no. Regular users don't need to be flying...

i disagree Skye it could be handy when building complex redstone contraptions where placing scaffolding would get in the way and i agree with stars pricing sounds reasonable that way its harder to abuse :P

How about a lot flag, "Fly" the owner would be able to fly for free but it would charge members to fly around. Maybe this could either go back to the server pot or the lot owner! Would be good for some things like events.

I don't know...

Players really shouldn't be flying, especially into lots that don't have roofs, and are sealed off with iron doors, from other players.

Price is too low, but I doubt Hret will allow that.

50 vT a second.

maybe it could be limited to lots you own or have a 'fly' flag ?

Maybe, goldy's only can fly? O.o
Users shouldnt fly, so as Vips.
 Super Vips would get in the doubt zone...
And it should be 50 vt a minute,

Maybe, on Hrets lot is a shop and you would see a sign that says.

[Buy]
1m fly
50 vt?

You would get warning if you have a low time of flying.
But NOT in main world.
If guest see that people can fly, im sure they think like ''Dafuq''
Maybe in Freebuild? Reszone? Nether?

I vote no for this idea. The only time we had flight was magic carpets, which were on admin-approval only and were still abused. This is a survival server, even with goldy's insane abilities. Goldys really don't need another thing to make them god-like.

Scaffolding really isn't that big of a deal. Especially for goldies, which makes goldy (or Super VIP)-only flight kinda useless. Make scaffolding, TinyWE it away.

I vote no to this idea, I don't see how it would be controlled, and how it would be at all useful.

And the hacks to fly, would be much easier to use.

It would make more sense to me to use something similar to the clock in creative, only it is used up every time you use it.
