    So, the idea: Create a special AFK island, where players can afk their crophoppers.
    • How:
    They claim a special AFK ticket on their island by clicking their crophopper. They can claim all of their AFK tickets on the island from all crophoppers, and then hold them in their inventory and afk in the consortium house. When they do that, their crophopper payout is based on the tickets and the calculated value during the last chunk load. Considering that individual island chunks are now not loaded, their impact on TPS is no longer there.
    • Problems:
    How do we allow others to AFK for me?

    Make guest AFK tickets that pay out the ticket holder allocated % of the crophopper value. If player leaves consortium room, the guest AFK ticket deactivates and is taken over by the next player arriving at the consortium room with their copy of the guest AFK ticket.
    If guest AFK tickets are active, owner cannot use owner AFK ticket to afk crophopper and may not gain additional money.

    How do we stop others from claiming our AFK money once we want to use our own tickets?

    Turn off guest mode by clicking on crophopper and picking menu item. This will remove any guest AFK ticket holder from the consortium island. Kind of equivalent of kicking afking player off your island.

    But what about changes in crophopper setup while someone is using AFK tickets?

    Once crophopper chunk is loaded, any changes will update every couple minutes + a last update on chunk unload.

    Bottom line.

    By removing 100s of individually loaded islands and keeping only one island loaded, by running all of the logic on simple mathematical calculations, we can regain 20tps permanently without disabling mob AI and other severe compromises currently present on the server.

    Very interesting idea laacis.

    I’m for anything that may increase TPS to make the server run more efficiently.
    No idea if they would implement something like this but I can see the idea behind it.
