The Residence Commands forthcoming update - What would you like to see?

Discussion in 'Community Discussion' started by kilmannan, Apr 23, 2012.

  1. Sprouting this off from another thread, JustinGuy mentioned a while back that he'd be looking at diversifying the amount of commands that can be used in your Residence. One of the main aims behind this is to let people have more control over exactly what's going on in their Residence and remove the need to watch people constantly.

    I thought it'd be a good idea to get a list of 'Wanted' commands. So stick 'em in here in the same format I've done and it'll make it quick and easy to pick them out. Include a description too please!
    Once you've added your list, I'll stick them into this post to allow quick reference.

    Again, feasibility and practicality are something that can be debated in the thread.

    All of these have the usual true/false flags.

    /res pset PLAYER dirt

    - Lets a player destroy dirt blocks and only dirt blocks. Solves the problem of who to trust when you want dirt cleared from your Res.

    /res pset PLAYER shear

    - Lets a player use shears on sheep. Ideal for Community Wool Farms.

    /res pset PLAYER shopsign

    - Lets a player build shop signs so you can run a Community marketplace where lots of people have stalls.

    /res pset PLAYER shopbuild

    - Lets a player build chests and access the chests. Combined with the Shopsign it means they can have full control over their shop area on your Residence. Shopsign could be combined into this Command, so one command SHOPBUILD would let them build a chest, access that chest and place a shop sign

    From _stads_

    /res pset [playername] milk true
    /res pset [playername] milk false
    /res pset [playername] milk remove

    -This flag would enable players to set the ability for others to milk their cows and mooshrooms for buckets of milk and mushroom soup bowls. This would be useful because when setting a bucket flag to someone it runs the risk or them dumping lava on your house and majorly griefing! This would be good because then poeple can give people milk when they are offline without any risk of the animals being killed or their residence being greifed
  2. Although I don't see how shopsign and shopbuild would work effectively, the dirt and shear commands are really a 'Must Have'. Don't forget about eggify ;)
  3. I would imagine it to be fairly simple in that it just gives the player permission to build only chests or signs, as well as use those signs.
  4. What if there is a mass influx of chest that a given person has...and he goes on a chest planting rampage? O_O
  5. What about...
    /res pset [playername] milk true
    /res pset [playername] milk false
    /res pset [playername] milk remove

  6. It would be nice to add permissions per regions, so that people can do //wand on an axe and define certain permissions on certain regions of the residence.
    Commands would be:
    /res region (region name) flag (build/container/use/move/etc) (player name) true/false

    Also, it would be nice to define permissions on RTS systems, so that you can add people tht can use it and people that can't.
    As a final suggestion, I belive that giving the player (supporter with more than 1 residence on a different server or a friend residence) the opportunity of setting its home on each server would be nice, so that if he has a residence on one server and another on other server, when he is at each he can simply do /home and not /home-2 or so, and /sethome for normal people in case they want to set their home at a friend's residence on a server that's not his home server.
  7. The residence system has the ability to this but Justin hasn't figured out a way to expose it and ensure no abuse. It also may not be compatible with Justin's custom code to the residence system.

    Decent idea, as it could be done by using [access] signs above the teleport pad, however you could very well close off the pads in a room with iron doors and access signs. So I doubt justin would really want to put any priority on it.

    Thats something Justin has said he plans to fix in the rewrite of the Residence system.

    Good overall list, but I'm confused about yjrdr. If anyone can setup chests and shop signs, they would be able to get into any of your chests. You might as well give them container permissions.

    This really would just be solved by subzones.
  8. This is where feasibility comes into it. Is it possible to give someone build rights of say, chests, and have it that they can only access chests they build? If so, that's where this flag then becomes effective - Not full container rights, only access rights to their created chests.

    If not, then back to the drawing board. :)
  9. I really like the idea of "Shopbuild" i have had issues with this sort of thing when i buy a new spot to open up another
    Creeper Mart location, because i have to have the res owner online to modify my shop prices and add new shop chests and stuff like that.
    i definetly think we should look into this :D
  10. I do not believe it will be possible track ones they build. Persisting that data would be alot of work...
  11. i think you should be able to do a command like, /res modify dig 4. it would lower the ground of your entire res by 4-etc, etc
  12. The residence system EMC uses is a heavily modded version of the bukkit Residence 2 plugin. Residence 3 is coming and is meant to be a rewrite with lots of new features. I wonder if Justin will change to residence 3?
