Jukebox suggestion
Posted: Wed Apr 29, 2015 7:53 pm
What if jukeboxes could be used as speakers together, covering larger areas with their mp3/streams.
How it could be done:
If a player placed one jukebox in their home and set it to be the hub, they could now place several other jukeboxes around the server and connect them to the mainhub jukebox. Basically there would be an option in all jukeboxes to make a jukebox a pointer to another jukebox, this could be done with somekind of tool. Making it possible for players to link jukeboxes and broadcast their own stuff to whomever want a speaker installed.
OR
If a player placed one jukebox in their home they could choose the "public playlist" setting, after clicking that their jukebox becomes a mainhub and would pop up in other players jukeboxes as "PlayerName's Channel". Now whatever song or station is chosen in the jukebox it's now also available through the channel. Music from the mainhub will keep playing as long as the chunk where mainhub is placed is loaded OR as long as the mainhub has more than 0 listeners.
Scenario where this would be useful:
I place a mainhub in my home, i place speakers(jukeboxes all with my channel selected) all the way from my home to my farm. I can now run between my home and my farm without songs starting over or sound getting muffed away. Also would be great for background music in bigger builds or towns who want music(but not the same over and over) to start when players enter their gates.
