Here are a few suggestions for the Skywars server that was recently released.

First Suggestion
Disable fall damage at spawn. I was jumping around spawn earlier and noticed that I was taking damage from falling. It should be easy to disable fall damage here, which will stop players from dying. You also take damage when you spawn in, because you spawn higher than the floor. Disabling damage at spawn will also stop this.

Second Suggestion
Increase the amount of time that you can't be damaged after falling out of the glass cage. I noticed that on some maps, if you are moving while falling, and if it takes you slightly longer to reach the island, you will take fall damage. One time this took me down to two hearts. It doesn't happen all of the time, but it will definitely help stop this if the time that you are invulnerable is increased.

Third Suggestion
Change the chat character limit. I'm not sure if this is because Skywars only works in 1.8 or not, but I noticed that the character limit for messages is much smaller than it is on /Skyblock. If this was necessary for the server to work, then disregard this suggestion.

Fourth Suggestion
Fix the /friends command, or remove it. Adding friends with the command still works, but when you type /friends with nothing after it, to open up the menu, it lags for a few seconds, then just opens up a menu with nothing there. It has empty spaces, and a book. If you click on the book, it takes you to the menu where you should be able to add friends by renaming the name tag, but it doesn't work.

Fifth Suggestion
Give the player saturation until the game starts. I noticed that you slowly lose hunger, even when you are waiting for the game. You should be able to start the game with full hunger. This is also the same at /spawn, players should not lose hunger at /spawn with no way to refill it.

Sixth Suggestion
Add the ability to type /servers and a command such as /spawn while waiting for a game to start. I noticed that when you are in a game, you can only leave by typing /Skyblock. I think there should be some sort of /spawn command, and if you are able to use /Skyblock, /servers should be enabled as well.

Seventh Suggestion
I think that it would be cool to be able to spectate games that are currently going on. It would also be useful if you want to see how a game that you died in ends. I'm not sure how hard this is to do, it should only be implemented if it is not too difficult to add. If this is not possible, maybe a system could be added where you don't automatically get kicked out after dying, and instead you start spectating the game. Then players could have the option of staying, or typing /spawn to get back to the spawn so that they can start another game.

Eighth Suggestion
Add a /party system. Once the Skywars server starts getting enough players, and it is hard to get in the same game as someone else, a /party system would be useful. It would allow people to join games and play with each other.

Ninth Suggestion
Add a 'Skywars' prefix for suggestions.

Tenth Suggestion
Another thing that I think should be done is either making a section for Skywars moderator applications, or promote a few of the current moderators, and give them moderator permissions on the Skywars server. I have seen people cheating and using hacks, because they know there are no staff, and not a whole lot can be done about them right now.

Eleventh Suggestion - Suggested by Gamzee
People who previously had a rank on Skywars should get their rank transferred to the new Skywars.

I am not saying that all of these suggestions should be implemented right away, or be the main focus of updates, I am just throwing ideas out there. Please let me know what you think of these suggestions in the comments. If anyone has any other suggestions to add, feel free to comment them and I will add it to the thread.

 

I support all but can you add a suggestion where people who had ranks on mineverse skyward should be transfered to the new skywars. I had premium and it sucks knowing that I logged on there and was a no rank.

 

Ok so:

• Support for the first suggestion, as it's unnecessary to take damage on the skywars' spawn as you only should take damage in the actual skywars map/game.
• Support for the second suggestion! Its really annoying sometimes and it makes you more vulnerable and more of an easy-to-kill target in front of other players.
• Sure support I guess for the third suggestion!
• Support for the fourth suggestion and maybe also create some party plugin or something? in case a bunch of players want to play and be in the same skywars server?
• Support for the fifth suggestion! Its not worth losing hunger in spawn as well as taking damage, also same for being in the glass cages where sometimes you have to wait a little bit longer but in the process you get hungrier so therefore you have to eat food when the game starts plus we dont start with much food sometimes.
• Sure and support for the sixth suggestion.
• Total support for this seventh suggestion! Sometimes I want to spectate to see my friend and how he/she is doing in the game and sometimes in case of any hackers, we can record and get the hacker banned.
• Yep!!! Support for this eighth suggestion. Sometimes I wanna play with Laini and we sometimes aren't in the same game : ((
• Support for the ninth suggestion, wouldn't hurt ; )
• Support for the last suggestion. Maybe the staff who are in /Skyblock should be staff in skywars in case of hackers or something? Also as players who previously had their ranks on the skywars server should get it back.

 

I think the thing needed most so far is staff having permissions, since there are people hacking. :’)
I support basically all the rest of these.

 

A while ago, skywars did have kits for ranks that came with armor and weapons. And then it was changed so that kits only came with Skybucks. And the only way to get a kit was to vote and then you got a skyknight kit for 6 hours. I want that back. The money kit.

 

Support for all of these, they are all useful

 

I support all, but most importantly the mod one, I've seen people flying and It would help trim down the number of hackers

 

Support.

 

Suggestion #9 (thread prefix for Skywars) been implemented and can be used anywhere the Skyblock and Classic prefixes can be used.

 

I support all of them however I 100% rather us get moderator permissions on the server. It’s not only hackers, there are many chat rules being broken too - despite the lack of players. Even so, as Krissy mentioned we won’t be monitoring games much - that doesn’t matter because usually there’s always a member of staff online on Skyblock and we can quickly hop on and punish the abusing players - and we also have reports that can handle that. So I don’t think the number of players has a massive impact on that one. But yeah - obviously these are all good ideas - I especially like the spectating one - would be nice!
