-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plugin category: Role-Playing Suggested name: NoMoreAcrobats What I want: A plugin that restricts jumping in some way or form. For example you get hungry whilst jumping and much like sprinting when you drop below a certain amount you can no longer jump. I ask this because it will encourage the use of stairs and or mine carts and make mountain expeditions a hell of a lot more difficult. It would be a bonus if you could configure the rate of hunger. Ideas for commands: None needed Ideas for permissions: A bypass so that you can avoid the effects. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Plugin category: Role-Playing Suggested name: TheHighSeas What I want: "-Disable the consumption of food in water (because really, who eats steaks while swimming) -Make the act of swimming (see hitting/holding spacebar in water) consume food fairly quickly. -Disable the act of swimming if food is 6 points or lower (same as sprinting)" -- Updated ideas are by UltraFaceguy -- Ideas for commands: None needed Ideas for permissions: Permission to bypass drowning -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you decide you would like to create either of these plugins I would be most thankful! Please drop me a pm if you are going to develop either of them
Instead of drowning, you should regulated swimming, like a timer, just because some people just won't go underwater enough for this to have an effect.
These are actually original ideas that haven't been made before... And they're actually good ideas. Plus, you formatted your post and used punctuation and proper spelling/grammar... I think these plugins deserve to be developed. Too bad I barely know Java (yet), or else I would take this up... Good job with a developer!
np98765 Haha I'm new to the forums and in the day and a half i've been on I have seen my fair share of requests for already made plugins XD I do hope these get developed, if they do it'll put my mind at ease and allow me to think up some more ideas !
I really enjoy the second idea, of the implementation of drowning, but can see how there might be some issues. This would mean when swimming short distances between islands, if there is a deep patch you may just die along the way, rather unfairly. So my suggestions for your idea, is the following: -Disable the consumption of food in water (because really, who eats steaks while swimming) -Make the act of swimming (see hitting/holding spacebar in water) consume food fairly quickly. -Disable the act of swimming if food is 6 points or lower (same as sprinting) Advantages include, being able to swim for a reasonable distance, across very deep water, but being unable to swim vast distances (A tad more realistic, people don't just start to sink because the water is deep). Anyone who swims knows how it can get very tiring, very quickly. The disabling of food consumption in water means people won't just eat and keep swimming forever. Also using the hunger bar rather than a constant radius check means you probably won't have to use the playerMove event which is REALLY resource intensive! So yeah. That's my input. It really is an amazing idea, and I apologize if I come of as wanting to change too much of what you originally suggested!
UltraFaceguy No no this is a really good addition to my idea! I just hope someone would be kind enough to make this! Will I need to edit the original post with the new ideas? I'm new to forum mechanics =P
That'd probably be a good idea, so that way all the information is in one place and it's easier for the developer.
UltraFaceguy The Anti-Jumping one has been finished but the dev ( jamw ) is on holiday, No news from Denno though...
Bear in mind that hunger consumption should be low enough so that it's easier to carry food with you when traveling than to randomly place slabs/stairs around the landscape to not have to jump (this is not a problem though if your players can't build in the wilderness )
I am working on it, but I am also working on a large project. My time will be redirected to this plugin in the next couple days so I can get it out of the way The idea ties into another plugin I made (Airline Food), so I will make it quickly.
ParadigmShiftDev You said it would be done in a couple of days and it's been at least two weeks? You still working on it?
Sorry about that. Development of Bukkit plugins have been getting a bit boring. I will to put something out when I can.
I want the same things these plugin does, an advancement of this would be to make it level compatible, so that your current level modifies how long you can swim and how many times (and height) you can jump per hunger bar. (could give you the ability to jump 2 blocks high at level 80)
