    Since I saw no one else bring this up, I've been pondering this for a while and have discussed it with a few others in-game who actually like the idea.

    The basic idea is that Donors would be able to use a command (and likely pay some grass and/or diamonds) to move their island as-is near other players of their choice (with each move having a set cost, kind of like how you can change your island biome with grass each time you want to change it).

    It would allow those who don't have active neighbors, such as myself (with all four of my neighbors having not been on in over a year and thus making it rather lonely in nearby activity) be able to choose who they want their island near and can result in some really neat cross-island builds with the availability to be near those of your choice.

    The command could likely cost a stack of grass (or more and the same worth in diamonds) to use, and could have a week to a month cooldown so it isn't spammed and used. It could be exclusive to higher-ranks like Skylord, Skygod, and Skytitan, or whichever Donor rank you'd want. It could have a feature where you can have a preset in /settings where you can enable island movement or disable it, so that if you like where your island currently is, you don't get suddenly moved from the spot and thus making it to where the command would only work and take payment if a spot near the player you wanted to move it to is open.

    I'm not terribly sure how it would logistically work, though I do know of multiple servers that have plot-based systems that do have a way for you to pay to move your lot to a specific spot (though I've most consistently seen this used on Creative worlds and not as much with anything regarding Skyblock), so if this request isn't feasible it'd be understandable that it wouldn't be taken up.

    However, if it is possible to do, I think it would be a nice feature. You could more easily combine islands into bigger ones if you're near someone that's trusted on your island (and vice versa) and makes going into joint projects like large-scale shops an easier feat.

    I love the concept, however I would rather just have it manually done by devs (which is possible btw) since that way it could be handled and not abused. It would make it so people who want more islands connected for better builds to actually do it. I mean, I go around my island and see people gone for months, bots from attacks to create lag, etc. etc. Tons of em, everywhere. I genuinely dont see a problem with this outside of maybe a small lag spike to load everything into a new chunk, which could be managed since it would be devs (or even supermods? doubtful though)

    Total no support yes it’s a great idea I just think it would cause huge lag spikes moving all that data and what if I have a double island and someone moves it to next to my island and my double island is gone

    Plus this is a perk or donor suggestion which aren’t allowed

    Would be a nice idea, not sure if these suggestions are allowed. +1 support is allowed.
