Denied [All Main Servers Suggestion] Hotbar Slot Lock Feature

+1000. This feature would be incredibly helpful and would lower the amount of whining our staff has to hear from people who have lost items due to accidental droppage.

Dropping a magic tool is prob bare bones defeat for most.

 

How does one accidently drop an item?
I'm guessing hitting the drop keybind?

Well that's the hard way of learning to unbind the drop key...

And you can't click your hot bar to throw it to the ground unless you go into the inventory screen?

 

-1 on this suggestion specifically.

Honestly, I rather have one of the two alternative suggestions that are currently "Under Review" over something like this:

Command for making items undroppable
https://ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/all-main-servers-suggestion-undroppable-command.228052/

Make Boosted Items, Magic Tools, etc. be undroppable by default
https://ecocitycraft.com/forum/thre...ock-boosted-magic-items-from-dropping.226490/

 

Sometimes, when you are building a massive project that involves many blocks, your mouse clicks in the wrong place, boom. Bottom of the ocean or in someones hand. While it is a low chance, there still is a chance.
I think the suggestion @Jdawger mentioned about a undroppable command is better though, now that I think about it.

That's fair. Just because we disagree and/or prefer an alternative doesn't mean we are against you personally or your wishes. Keep in mind that suggestions are suggestions for the full benefit of the server, not just individuals.

And at the end of the day, it's up to Clar, Craved, and other owners/devs of the server to make a decision; it seems that something will be implemented based on what Clar has been saying. Again, I just prefer one of the other two options over a hotbar lock

If you want more details, I am more in favor for the single undroppable command and/or undroppable boosted/magic stuff because a lot of times I drop my boosted items from my inventory while clearing out garbage/unwanted stuff, so a hotbar lock won't benefit me personally whereas the other two suggestions I am more in favor of will essentially do what you are suggesting with hotbar lock as well as solve issues that I (and other's) have from dropping items
