1. As I was playing, I went to Agent's island and found Laini's island in the process. Though it was locked, I could still get in. Maybe we can add like a plugin for a wall around the 99x99 (or more) so when it's locked, no person can enter outside of the island.

2. More and more people have been joining Skyblock, and we usually see the "Welcome" message. To help out new players, we can have a "Welcome, (username). Type /newisland to get started." If they don't know how exactly to get started.

Thanks for taking the time to read these suggestions!

EDIT - 1. We could possibly add a new trust system to have players visit the players island while locked.

 

First Suggestion: No support. I would like to be able to lock my alt's island if needed, yet still be able to fly to it, because my island is right next to it. I also have a few friends that have islands next to me, and they lock their island so that other people can't visit it, but we can still build on it without having to make it unlocked. I feel like adding a 'wall' would just make this much harder than it needs to be. People flying to locked islands isn't a huge problem, and people can always report the offender if it really bothers them.

Second Suggestion: Support. I have seen quite a few people asking how to start, and I think adding this to the welcome messages would definitely help new players.

 

Maybe we could add like a trust system while able to visit while locked?

 

I guess that would work, and I wouldn't be opposed to it, however it would just give the developers more work to do, and I don't think that it is a large enough issue to justify spending that much time adding in a system to do that.

 

Although islands may have a wall barrier to protect strangers from going to other people’s islands, they should make it to where if /trust-ed, they’d be able to bypass the wall.


And support on both.

 

If I am misunderstanding you, please correct me, but what I am understanding is that you think that there should be barriers that block people from entering an island's space, unless the person is trusted. What if your alt or a friend's island was more than one island away from yours. Would that mean that you are boxed in your island, and can't leave your space unless you get your neighbors to trust you? Also, would there be a small 'neutral' space in between islands, where you could fly slightly outside your boundaries, or would you not be able to leave the space that you can build in, unless you are trusted on the neighboring island? This would make it very hard to travel to another island, unless it is right next to you, and you are trusted on it. I also technically fly out of my island boundaries when I am building on the edges of islands, and I would find it extremely annoying to not have the freedom of flying outside my boundaries to place blocks around the edges. If I am misunderstanding you, please correct me, and let me know.

 

The way you are kind of explaining it, yes but now I see the flaw with that. What I think should be in the game is that there should be at least one “island space” between each island. So to say, my island is in one area, and from me to the my neighbor should be one island space between each other so that there’s some sort of distance. Not sure if that’s possible or anything but I see the flaw with that idea. :/

 

Bump. -o\

Inactive for about 5 days.

 

First Suggestion: So your asking Bob the builder to build a wall around locked Islands?

Second Suggestion: Support, Theres to many new players joining.

 

BOB THE BUILDER!

However, no. There could be a plugin for this.

 

I’ll add a screenshot to a server that has this kind of plugin

 

Good morning, Mr. Storm.

Thank you for the suggestions, let me address.

Island barriers: I understand how annoying it can be to have an uninvited guest flying to your island, especially if you have it locked specifically to prevent this. We have partially addressed this by adding the /boot command to remove guests. Additionally we are testing some permission changes to islands that should curb the ability of players to be malicious about visiting. Outright putting barriers (or throwing them back) for flying over is a bit of a thorny issue, though: The case could be made that your neighbors could effectively "box you in" and prevent you from exploring.

New users and getting started: All new players begin at spawn. There are very large and colorful floating text blocks there welcoming and giving them the first command to begin. This should address the problem but if you can think of anything else please let us know.

Kind regards,
