Maybe call it Sticky Hands or something. Basically, everything you break/remove goes straight to your inventory. If your inventory is full, it drops like a normal item. This can be toggleable. Pros: Yes Cons: No
Had to vote down this one, for this reason. It would give the "supporters" too much of an advantage. You are in the nether, hovering over a lava lake, chopping glowstone. No risk to losing items. Meanwhile the non-supporter is having to chop carefully and hope it doesn't fall. Same goes with Obsidian in this situation.
While you do have a valid point, I don't think it can be considered that much of an advantage. It is not like the activities where this would give a clear advantage are extremely common to the point where it is unfair. Mining obsidian and glowstone is a fairly uncommon thing to do.
Normal players can have the same "advantage" just by using common sense. BOOM! Platform. BOOM! Water. In reality, this perk only causes less time to be consumed.
Gonna have to vote this one down... The item drop is a very vanilla feature and I feel that removing this game mechanic for supporters would be against the "French Vanilla" aspect of EMC
I feel like item drop in most situations is less of an integral feature than being able to transfer XP between servers and being able to keep it on death.
EMC isn't really french vanilla anymore. I think it is just chocolate now. Aikar has been straying further and further away. EDIT: Jkjkjk, you sly ninja
French Vanilla is an outdated term. EMC has moved so far away from Vanilla, it's more like cookies 'n cream. It's different, got some nice BIG chunks of non-vanilla in there, but it still has some of the vanilla aspect.
Maybe there should be a mechanic where when near lava or fire. The item you break will be instantly put in your inventory. anyway I give this a +1
I am sorry but I couldn't help but laugh. Not at you or anyone else but at one of my ill fated water obsidian mining debacles. There I was standing in the water chop chop chopping at the obsidian when POP, I got the block of obsidian. Then the water pushed me into the lava where I immediately sank under the burning surface where the water formed a new chunk of obsidian above me! ARRRGHHH I was trapped! I can laugh about it now, a little bit. I lost a lot of stuff that day.
-1. Supporters have too much perky things now. I haven't even gotten the chance to be supporter. Lets not add this, too non-vanilla. (I know there's chocolate, but if we add this, this will make minecraft into a mushy vanilla-chocolate. )
