Alright, so lets start. Recently I was getting a little bit bored with Innectis, my mind was blocked and I found myself just thinking; "what the heck should I do now?". Then I thought to myself, I've built almost everything that I wanted to build, or... what I am able to build.
What I am referring to is the limitations that the current world has on us. As we stand now we are only able to have lots in 1 world, "Main World". This limits us to a certain set of things we are able to work with, sure we can go mining Nether Brick and decorate our lots, but I'm looking at the big picture here. The one thing I have wanted to built on Innectis since Day 1, was an Enderman Farm. I loved the idea of being able to get a crazy fast XP farm going, while collecting a ton of Ender Pearls around for use where ever I wished, but as is now, that's impossible.
As is now, we are stuck using 1 set of mobs, 1 set of weather, 1 set of sky, 1 set of well, world generation and I'd like to see that change. Now I have a few suggestions as to what we could do to create these lots and have them completely functional, but before I continue, i'd like to share a little Q&A I had with our admin AlphaBlend on some of the many possible issues with these lots.
Q: What are you trying to suggest here?
A: New worlds, 1 Nether, and possibly 1 for The End where players would be able to obtain lots.
Q: What happens if the worlds change? What if there is a new block type added?
A: Players would be informed of this before obtaining the lot, since these would most likely be separate worlds, players could go into the originals, which would be regenerated, collect some of the new blocks, and use them however they wish.
Q:Skye made a nether lot area, why do we need this new shenanigans?
A: Skye created a Netherrack lot area, within mainworld, with a bunch of lava and a covered ceiling, it is currently unattractive to most players, and does not have the world properties of the real Nether. (No offence to Skye)
Q: Why don't we buff our current worlds instead of adding new ones?
A: Because our current worlds limit us, 90% of players who actually want these lots would use them for the world properties such as the Mobs, and in our current world setup, that's simply impossible.
Alright, we're finished that so let's get on with it, hopefully you're still with me here. So finally, here is a list of pros and cons I came up with in regards to adding some new lot areas.
Pros:
-More space for lots seeing as the current Mainworld is getting crowded
-Ability to work with the full range of mobs
-Would not need to be updated unless a MASSIVE overhaul by Mojang took place
-At no time would staff need to transfer lots
-People have asked for these for a long time, give the players what they want =]
-Could give a practical use to Nether Portals (portal takes you to your nether lot?)
Cons:
-Adding new worlds could cause stress on the server (Maybe? If an Admin could clear this up please?)
-Staff would need to take time to create this
One more thing here before I leave you be, how would we obtain these lots?
1. A money sink is needed in this server, so why not create one? Make lots purchasable for whatever amount of VT?
2. The difference between Goldy and Super VIP is subtle, and before the Goldies go all for this and everyone else hates it just think about it. Super, $25. Goldy, $50, yet there is no major benefit from Goldy over Super, maybe we need to change that? Maybe these lots could be Goldy only.
3. VIP+ having access, since Users are only able to have 1 lot, and by default it's in MainWorld lot areas.
End Note, if there is anything you'd like to add to the pros/cons, of if you'd like a question answered, please let me know and i'll edit it into the post.
