Recently, I was scrolling through the applications because I wanted to change the flags in some of my towns. I was surprised to find, though, that there is only one flag left that you can apply for: Use. For users such as myself, who have towns in traditionally 'wintery' biomes, it means that we cannot get the flag to toggle ice-forming. From my memory, we used to have the following flags. I would like them to return, once again!: Ice-Form Ice-Melt Leaf-Decay Greeting Grass-Growth Farewell Returning all of these flags (perhaps at various prices for flags such as Greeting/Farewell) would help mayors+ a lot with their towns.
Greeting and farewell are a no-go, they're major lag causers when you have this many regions and this many players. The other ones I agree with.
If you were to charge enough money for them(like $100,000), wouldn't it offset the damage caused by the lag? Put a price so high only it that only either the crazy or the fabulously wealthy would purchase it.
+1 Great idea. More money out the economy and will stop me from re-building my ice mansion every week.
No, because no matter how many people buy it, the lag is always the same. Andrew disabled that thing COMPLETELY to prevent lag.
I really do want flags back. But I'd like to see a snow-fall flag, too. It shouldn't cause much lag - if any, from my understanding - on the server's end. Off by default, on for a high (?) price; off again for the same or lower fee. My only guess is that some weird weather setting as a whole will be in the way. (I still don't understand why people hated weather so much.)
I personally hate rain and snow I would be interested in having these flags, although I was not on ECC when they were on.
I feel that we should have server wide rain and snow. It would make the server a lot more realistic. I personally hate it, but I would like to make the server more realistic. The rain doesn't need to effect the entire server, but it can be similar to real life.
I'm not a fan of rain at all... It makes it hard to see, and usually looks hideous on any texture pack, lol. However, snow can be okay, is silent, and... Well, I mostly want snow for realistic snow coverage. :/ Would love to have a snowy town. Great atmosphere and more "Minecraft" realistic. If I don't want to see them, I'll turn 'em off (once OptiFine updates and Mojang adds more video settings, lol).
So I assume these flags are an application feature and you are ablet o turn certain features on in your town? This seems quite cool and I would love to see these!
