Just a few suggestions
Code:
1. /hdraw (Draw, but the inside is hollow rather than all blocks)
2. Multi-Map
3. Increased Stability (Like a fix to the random hang that happens)
4. User-Interface or a minimize to tray option
5. Doors
6. a /Replace command (Lets you replace a certain block within the action block area with some other block, but does not replace the block if it is not of the first type. Example: /Replace Glass lava
Would relplace all glass blocks within the action blocks, with lava blocks.RE: Suggestions - ziek1526 - 03-01-2010 04:20 PM
#2,3,4 I support you in. As for #6 try messing with the /paint command with action blocks, that should give you the effect your looking for.
I'll also add
** WebUI
** A /backup and /save feature
** (not sure how possible this is) custom color blocks would make pictures a lot more diverse

what i mean by /backup or /save is that you can enter those commands and have your server either save or back its self up. So, for instance you can enter the command then you can shutdown or reboot your server without fear of data loss. maybe imputing the command through console would be a better way to do it. Looking forward to physics update!

I like the idea of doors, if possible. Maybe have doors that only certain ranks have access to. Also, a sort of erase feature would be good. It would basically be the exact same thing as draw, but backwards. It could erase in a cube, line, or plane shape. This would make a lot of things a lot easier
RE: Suggestions - TkTech - 03-02-2010 04:32 AM
You can do that already by setting the drawing mode to air, and then using /draw. It'll replace everything with air instead of bricks
RE: Suggestions - Unison - 03-02-2010 05:36 AM
Also, if your most recent action block is a delete, it will delete the blocks in that area (if you're not using /paint).
Because remember, you're not actually deleting. You're actually placing air.
RE: Suggestions - Jerkshark - 03-02-2010 08:24 AM
I thought that air just got rid of liquids. I'll have to try that again.

Thanks for the suggestions. At the moment we're in kind of a deadlock (I've been rewriting a lot and now it's not working xD). As soon as I've sorted it all out me and the other devs will have to discuss what features to add etc..

well...I'm in no rush, rather have quality software later than crappy awesome stuff sooner.
keep up the good work!

How about a /uptime command?
Displays server uptime.
I thought it would be nice to have because some people like to reset their maps and servers way too often.
It would be kinda cool also if it gave the age of the current map. (if thats possible) Maybe that could be in a different command like /mapinfo (shows how long the map was created for, and gives a number of maps current length height and depth or something.)
The more I think about it, how about a easy "name <rank>" color changer?
/color <rank> <color> OR /color <playername> <color>
That way we wouldn't have to go into source code to edit stuff, because I rather not break it..
Like the 4th edit to this post today.
/cords or /where (shows your x,y,z cords on current map)
RE: Suggestions - HardClumping - 03-06-2010 04:06 AM
I'm definitely putting in another vote for Multi-Map, especially if Portals are involved
I'm having a blast with minerCPP, and portals/multi-map would just make the whole package for me.
EDIT: Also! I'm not sure how possible this is, I bet Notch would have to put it into Minecraft himself, but a feature I've always thought about: blocks that can be set with messages, sort of like when you look at a player to see their name- so people can add explanations to what they've built, or just sign them without having to use tons of space to write their name out in blocks. Maybe like using a bookshelf block will display a piece of paper or something similar on the user's screen.
RE: Suggestions - TkTech - 03-06-2010 06:14 AM
Not possible. The game engine and protocol are very simplistic.

It could be done by noting players position and / or camera angles. While a "piece of paper" is impossible, it could send a message to chat.
RE: Suggestions - TkTech - 03-06-2010 02:01 PM
THAT is possible. What he asked, doing it visually as an item in-game is not.
RE: Suggestions - Unison - 03-06-2010 05:09 PM
It's not a bad idea.
However the problem is, it would require calculating each players rotx/roty, in relation to all other players on the map. It would require (player count)^2 - 1 calculations, or so.
RE: Suggestions - obscurell - 03-14-2010 03:37 AM
Command /stop
stopping draw and coping
very need
RE: Suggestions - NickSlash - 03-14-2010 06:34 AM
indeed /stop would be handy.
something that asks you to confirm an action if its stupidly massive might be good.

You can edit the source, /rules are in srvMessage.h line 122.
