Region +
There is so much we can do with regions I feel to make them more unique and so they can function to the players liking on the server. Expanding the uses / functions a region can do can help improve player created areas like Towns, Pvp Arenas, Parkour, you name it and it starts with ideas for them.
I Started to think more about region flags ect. when reading Obi_Wan's suggestion for MCMMO Flags in regions. Now my idea for regions might be a little out there so be warn.
Region Flag:
If a Region has at-least 2 Owners and 10 Members, the region can then have a flag that will be shown to players entering the region. The Flags would just be a banner that an owner made and set for the region. The Banner Would be displayed either on the top center of the screen, left middle, or in a custom location the player set. To be able to set the regions banner yes you have to have 2 owners and 10 members, but the person setting it must also at-least be premium 3+ and has to be an owner of the region. Changing a flag will cost 10k and if your region gets below 10 members and 2 owners, then the owner who put the flag up will be sent back his banner and the region will not have a banner (flag) anymore.
Another thing you could do is also allow the use of Paintings as town flags so players can create custom ones.
Another thing you can do is make it so everyone can add flags to regions if they have requirements (not the premium 3 requirement) but they have to use banners and if they want to use paintings they have to be premium 3+.
Region Channel:
When Moosh, Sebastian, and I were creating the 4Corners game, we had to create a new channel for it so it would not flood the global chat with "Red" "Blue" "PRIZE: ____ " ect. So We made a new Channel. If there was a way for either Premium 5+, Premium 6, or Mods + To be able to set a Chat Channel for a Region that could help out.
How will it work?
Setting: Chat Channel: (Selected Channel Name)
Example: Chat Channel: 4Corners
When a player enters that region he will be forced into the 4Corners Channel. Once he leaves the region he will be kicked out.
Ender Pearl Useage Flag:
Simple flag, Just asks if ender pearls should be able to be used within the region to get around. If set no then the person who throws the ender pearl will still see the ender pearl thrown but it wont teleport them.
Hammer of Notch Damage Flag & Lightning Knife:
When shooting a Hammer of notch, should it damage the mobs within the region. Setting this to no will allow your animals and pets to be protected by people using hammer of notches within your region. I had this problem several times and lost 3 Rainbow pandas due to it.
Helper Teleportation within No TP Zone
The other day I had problems trying to teleport to someone within a region that had tp disabled. They were begging for help because a player wouldnt leave their region and killed some of their animals. Now could there be some sort of way where you could allow helpers to be able to teleport within these regions? For example maybe if a player is in the region with tp deny a helper could tp to them but it would ask them for permission. That way we can still be denied teleport access to those regions if we are not wanted but still allow us to teleport there if the player truly needs our help.
Level Flag:
This flag will enable you to have your regions monster spawning level look at either the region or the worlds levels.
Region Leveling of monsters is (1) and cannot be changed. But if your in Greycliff you could have an area with the level of (4) or even (10). Now if you have a region atm in the lvl 10 area then the monsters to be spawned within the region are lvl 1 not lvl 10. This flag will allow you to choose if you want lvl 1 or lvl 10 monsters to spawn within your region if your in a lvl 10 area.
Region Enter / Leave Notifications:
Lastly the only other suggestion I have is to make the enter and leaving notifications that some regions have more noticeable.
Hopefully you guys liked some of the ideas, Thank you.
