Title: Bucket & Backpack Idea
Post by: Nosliw on July 01, 2011, 03:54:31 AM
I have two (2) ideas that I would like to share, the first is a command that will enable you to refill buckets. Both of these ideas are for convenience, you could use them as VIP commands if you wish to encourage people to donate to the Innectis server.

The bucket idea would be a command that refills your bucket up with water, this could be done by saying /buckets # water, you would replace the # with a number, this would be the number of buckets you wish to fill up and the water could be replaced with lava if you have permissions to, this could be a command that builders may receive. However the original idea of being able to refill buckets came from that fact that you can create an infinite source of water, so it is of no real high value, lava however is less common that water and may be useful for builders to have.

The backpack idea would be a command that opens a chest, like the /trash command however when you close this chest and re-open it, the items would remain in there. Perhaps you could purchase this upgrade with PvP points or get it by achieving a certain rank of VIP, but this command could be used for convenience of holding more items. When you die, items would stay safe within your backpack however they are not quick to hand, so this wouldn't give you a way to cheat loosing items in PvP. Possibly if you upgrade your backpack further you would get access to a large chest, or even multiple chests with /backpack #.

I hope you like my ideas, feel free to comment on then and possibly adapt them if required, I am unsure how convenient you want to be to your users.

Well, we are currently experimenting with the backpack idea. not sure if where making it for users usage just yet.
Maby in the future.

And the bucket idea, well...
I thought about it for some time, not as a command but more of a 'super bucket' that allows you to place water 3 times instead of one.

I added the backpack idea to the redmine as a feature for Goldys.

The refill water idea can take advantage of the fact that empty buckets stack in MC 1.3. We can tweak it around so that however many buckets you have in your hand get filled with water when used.

In the future, you could enable certain players to obtain their ender chests using tinyWE. That would work and its less coding.

Also only you can access your own ender chests (less work for alpha to do :D )

Working on this for the update. Goldys will have a backpack that's the equivalent size of a single chest. If they die, all the contents are dropped. That will make this a bit more interesting. ;)

Edit: the backpack idea I am working on.

In addition to their inventory? I like this idea.

Just allow the tinyWE of Ender Chests. It's would become a portable backpack (yes risk is involved because there is still a chance of losing the chests.)

Why not just make it drop the chest instead of obby? This way Users and VIP can get it back too.

Ender chests are complimentary to vanilla minecraft. The backpack is complementary to Goldys on Innectis.

I think that would require mods to do since MC only drops enderchest with silk touch. Not 100% sure.

We can detect if an ender chest is broken, and have it drop an ender chest instead of 8 obby.
