    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Main City Server​
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Allow water to freeze in the wild​
    What are you suggesting:
    I've discovered that water does not seem to freeze naturally in the wild (afked near it all night, no ice formed). This was in the mining world, though I believe the case is the same in the rising world.​
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    It would make farming ice a little bit easier, as people could place their own water and allow it to freeze, rather than having to search around the world for ice pockets to mine. I believe ice-formation was enabled as the default before the reset, so I'm not quite sure why it changed.​
    Other information:
    Players with towns in snowy biomes could simply disable it with the towncontrol feature (or hire someone to do it for them).​
    Plugin or custom addition:
    N/A​
    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.​

    I’ve never had an issue finding ice. Usually there are enough on the server with /kit water that would prob give you a stack or just get a silk pic/shovel and farm away. I always farm a few stacks of packed ice with a silk pick whenever I find a spike biome as well to auction. I’m sure if you ask around you can get a good amount for pretty cheep or even free. If I’m on just pm me and I’ll give you as much as you can want.. I have homes set all over mining and a silk pic.

    My guess is that it’s turned off due to lag maybe? Not sure. I doubt it’s worth the work to activate it to be honest.

    I have found it is actually rather difficult to buy ice, especially in bulk. For me, who has a snowy town, I would rather that ice formed either way, not just for the farming aspect. +1 for now though there may be a good reason it is not enabled currently

    +1 If not in both worlds, at least mining for ice farming?

    Im confused? Is it really that hard to find ice?

    I find plenty of it all over mining and in the wild..

    Maybe I need to start selling ice in bulk.

    I will not be changing our ice settings for undisclosed reasons.
