Beacon forcefields

Post by Robman533 » Sat Nov 16, 2013 2:02 pm

Hello,

It would be both cool and useful at the same time for beacons to actually show forcefields. This would show the area (in a sphere) a beacon powers.

Here's an image to exactly know what I mean:

This forcefield would be toggleable via the settings or a keyboard control, the same way we can toggle region boundaries.

I just edited it, forgot to mention it.

this would be quite helpful.
Helper 5/1/15 to 12/25/15.
Please donate rails, stonebricks, and gold ores to the hopper at /warp TheSC. We need many of those in order to build the railroad network in Greycliff.

Quite a lot I'd say, especially for people who use beacons a lot and would want to know specifically until where the powers affect us, like me.

I kinda failed at that last message, heres what it was meant to say:
Really cool idea, but with region boundaries making some people lag a lot, i cant imagine what this would do to some computers with all the rendering and stuff. Making it an option would be cool though.
