    Intro

    Hi all, before I start I want to apologize if this has been suggested before, I just looked through all 25 pages of suggestions and didn't see it (sorry if I missed it!)

    My Suggestion

    Add the ability for members of a coop to set their own island spawns. This would be helpful for those
    with chest shops, separate houses etc within one main (sometimes large) island. For example, I have a coop on eco with a few players and have just begun a chest shop. I would like the ability to be able to set my own spawn outside my chest shop so when players do /visit Novembree they are sent there, opposed to the spawn set by the island owner. However /visit (*insert island owner ign*) would be unaffected.

    Please give me any and all feedback on my suggestion, I would love to hear your thoughts.

    - Bree

    Edit 22/07/2021: I suggest you also read RedstoneTrails' comments, he makes some great suggestions.

    I've always really enjoyed the idea of separating your home from your visit. I actually enjoyed that idea so much, that back in late 2018 through late 2019 I even created my own visit plugin for my survival worlds with friends (probably about half of it is stolen code from EssentialsX and ASkyblock :dead: [don't try building it, it's missing a bunch of files and a lot of the code is intentionally slaughtered. I had just uploaded it to show something in the code to my friend]).

    I know that's not what your suggesting, but I thought I'd throw in my thoughts to see what you think. Conceptionally, I like the idea of having only the island leader be able to do /setvisit, and then the island owner and everyone else can have their own /sethome to set elsewhere on the island. This would be the easiest to implement on the server, as it'd just require untying the /sethome command from visits, and tie that to a new /setvisit command.

    What you're suggesting does sound extremely nice, as it'd basically let people have their own little islands within the same island. In the case of people with alts, this would also let them set up direct shop visits to various parts of their island. Someone like Haberson could have /visit HabersonStone, /visit HabersonWool, /visit HabersonWood, etc. This would be a bit more complicated to add in, though. The way that information about visits is stored would have to be changed a decent bit. Going off your exact suggestion, it wouldn't be too bad, you'd just have to confirm that a player has an island, then pull their stored /home location.



    Overall, lots of different options out there for how things could be switched up, each with their own layers of pros and cons. I personally favor having one island spawn that players go to when they use /visit, and then allowing the owner and co-ops to each have their own /home. Though this system favors an island where all of the shops and such are in one central area. Your suggestion would favor islands that are spread out, or multi-leveled. I would be excited to see what people think of any of these different options.

    I'd love both, the island owner to have a visit spawnpoint and his own, and coop members can have their own.

    Essentially an island visit spawn shared by everyone and individual island members get a personal spawnpoint.

    Thanks for your response Red!

    This is a great idea, and props to you for coding it! This builds upon the suggestion I have already made I think it would be a fantastic update. (Extremely helpful for shops/farms too.) Support.

    I think providing each coop member the ability to set 1 personal spawn and 1 visit spawn would be fantastic, as well as applying this to regular single-owned islands as well. It would make for less confusing island shops etc.

    Thanks for the great suggestion!

    I feel that co-op players should be able to set their own spawn on the island. Like you said with the chest shop, it would make it much more convenient for you and for your potential customers if they could just visit you and be right at the shop rather than having to roam the island from the island owner spawn.

    Yes support.

    It was the same-ish reasoning behind PC's post of having /ehome as well so that you could have multiple home points besides your island visit spawn. I've always wanted to have a home that's separate than my visit spawn. Like redstone said, a new command such as /setvisit would be for a public visit spawn and use /sethome as your own personal spawn. It's annoying for people with multiple builds and areas on their own island including myself where I have an enclosed shop but also a farm, a build and some generators outside I need to access constantly.

    If multiple visit locations were to be added, the one thing that would be an issue or non-issue depending on your view, is the ability to lock. Does the coop leader get the power to lock all visiters? Or would each coop member be able to unlock or lock their own visit location? On the one hand coop members may have shops they want open and so the separate visit allows them to open it separately from the coop leader. On the other hand, this means that some coop members may not want the island open whereas some may want it open for their own sections of an island. Redstone can quote me on this as I'm probably entirely wrong lol, but I'd imagine it wouldn't be a hard code to allow each island member to have access to a lock command something like /lockvisit. I would lean towards allowing each member to lock their own section if it's possible whatsoever to implement and if there's issues with other members then they can choose to block off their own sections or areas where they don't want public visitors visiting.

    I think that each member of the island should be able to unlock/lock the island, along with the island banning. I am banned from someones island and they gave me no valid reason to get banned. But I spoke with the coop member and they said they're not sure why I am banned and they wish that they had the option to unban me. Maybe this can also be added, if the coop spawns get added in.

    Support. Reminds me of when we could set our own warps in the old org for some reason lol. But yeah, I have multiple coopmates (non are active sadly) and if one were to make a shop or something they could have their visit separate than mine.

    Thank you for the lil history and your opinion! I wasn't aware that old org would allow warps to be made, that's interesting! I appreciate the support.

    Thank you for the support Marc :)

    Supporting.

    Players with skytitan and donor can obviously set ehomes, allowing them to have 2 separate 'homes' or easy access TP points. However, for players without those ranks can't and are forced to return to a specific spawn point. Allowing coop members to set their own home would be helpful for them, I do agree.

    I love this idea and don't really know why it's not already a thing. When you are in a coop the server lets you type /sethome and it will say that your home has been set to this and that visitors will show up here, but that's not true. Only the coop leader can set the home. Other people in coops might have different areas that they want to show off on the island and I think that this will be a really good addition to the game! Support and good luck :p
