PlanetCraft and Planet of Cubes Forum

I have seen stars in the game before, but not sure if they are random stars or actual constellations. I think it would be cool if there were like more stars if there are some already, or if they are random stars to add constellations. A star I would like to be added is Orion, it’s pretty easy to find because of its belt. Maybe a telescope could be added too? You could do this if you were bored or just wanted to find some constellations for fun. 

One another thing that could be added is there could be lightning and if you get hit by it it would take a few hearts away. Like lightning could hit the ground, since I think there all already thunder and lightning storms. Like lightning could take maybe half of your hearts, because it probably will not happen. Still could though, maybe you can have like a lightning resist potion that is very easy to make and does not cost much at all. Or just use fire protection, I feel like lightning can already hit the ground. But I am not sure if you have hearts taken away if you get hit.
 
You could also add when it starts to storm, clouds move in and then it rains. Like instead of automatically raining or snowing it could make clouds move in first. It could tell players it is basically going to rain / storm / snow, and they could get to shelter. Just incase lightning is going to hit, because it could take away like half / more than half of your hearts ( If the lightning update thing is added ). Not all clouds could be bad though. 
 
Another suggestion I had is maybe you could have a thing on the side that could show the tempature. Like in the desert it would be very hot and humid. In snow biomes it would be very cold like below freezing. Normal biomes could be maybe around 50°F, you could also have a little thing to hide it. Your character could maybe take damage if put in the hot sun too long or too cold, this part is optional though. Maybe if you had a pair of leather armor or something you could stay in snow biomes longer. The better the armor could make it like more easy to survive in the snow biomes. Again, this part doesn’t actually need to be added if the tempature thing is added. It’s just a little thing that could be added
 
Maybe there could be firefly jars and fireflies, like you could craft a firefly jar with wood and glass. You could use this to catch fireflies, when you caught one it would have little yellow dots inside the jar. It could also say the amount of fireflies you caught, and you could release them somehow, I’m not sure about that yet. I just think it would be cool if you could have little fireflies flying around at night. The item would either be called “Jar” or “Firefly Jar”.

 
Background sounds or music would also be neat. Like if you had some music playing when you entered, or like sounds when you entered a server. Maybe at night you could hear crickets, but you could turn off the sounds and stuff in the settings. Like you could have ambience or music playing in the background softly. Maybe we could have cave sounds too.. that would make mining for diamonds and ores a bit spooky… 0. o ( Edit: Background music is being added in the next update! )
 
My seventh suggestion is you could somehow place your spawn in the main spawn zone, but not be able to edit. Like you could place a home point there but not edit anything. That way if you’re going to your home point by spawn, you don’t get stuck in a hole somebody dug where you placed it. Or you don’t get swarmed by a bunch of people and go on a manhunt thing. Like what if people were targeting you and camped your spawnzone by spawn. Then, when you spawn in there are like 10 - 100 players hitting you with harm II and stuff.
 
I would love it if we had fish! I think I have posted about this before but I’ll put it in here anyways. If you could have like fish, like actual fish, it would be amazing. You could easily attack like some fish in the water instead of having to spam kill zombies. You could also tame a lot of ocelots ( Cats ) and have lots of yummy fish to eat. I really wish that fish were added as a mob in the game. If they were I would be very happy, because easier snack for you and those ocelots out there.

New Suggestions: 
 
When I was reading another suggestion page thing, I saw that RooyceFound talked about holding things in your left hand. Like, you could hold a torch in your left hand while mining. This would be pretty cool. I think that this a good idea. Everywhere you walked would be more bright, if you got trapped and couldn’t place a torch, you could hold a torch in your left hand. This torch would actually light up things, certain things could be held in your left hand. 
 
Speaking about holding things using your left hand in game, why not make a left handed option? This would be good for people who are left handed. Like, in the settings you could switch the controls so it could be easier for some left handed people. It would be called “Left Handed Mode”, or “Left Handed Controls”. I think this should be added too.
 
Maybe, if pistons were added, you could make a limit for the pistons placed. This limit MIGHT be able to be increased a tiny bit with gems. I’m still not sure about it though, people might make different accounts to bypass it. I got an idea! If a user places a large amount of pistons, it will show up an option when you get close to it to report. Like, if a user sees a lag machine and a large amount of pistons are placed, there will be an option to report when getting near. Like, at the top it will say “Report” when getting near, when you tap on this you could give information and give other ideas onto stop lag machines. The report will be reviewed after it is sent, you can also choose to take a digital picture of the lag machine. There could be a camera that takes a picture of it only in the game, and adds it to the report, so you could know if the report is true or not. 
 
Another thing that you could add, is you could make a higher graphics setting. What I mean by this, is when you join Planet of Cubes it is turned off. If you want to turn this option on, you can go to settings and turn the “High Graphics” / “Realistic Details” button on. There will also be a warning that it may cause lag by the button. When you turn it on, the game will be more realistic. What I mean by this, is basically like realistic flowing water and things like that. The leaves on the trees will blow in the wind, same for the grass. It should probably be tested a lot, lot before released if it was getting added.
 
Another thing that could be added, are custom skins. Players have the option to make their own skin, but before a skin is added it must be approved. When you view a players profile, you can have an option to report their skin. You can then provide information on how the skin is bad or inappropriate ( Optional ). The skin will be looked at again, and probably removed. It will cost gems to make a skin, I’m not sure of the amount yet. When a skin is deleted / removed, the player will switch to the “Red” skin in the Default Section. This player might receive their gems back, maybe they could receive them the first time, but if they do it again then they don’t. 
 
Another thing that could be added, could be double chests. When you place two chests together right now, they are two separate chests. But, if double chests were added, when you would place two chests together it would become a double chest. This would be one chest with more inventory space. It’s a pretty simple idea. Basically 2 chests would equal a double chest instead of 2 separate chests. 
 
Special maps could also be added, for example, a map / server could be only for PvP. There would be more settings, like you could choose for players to spawn with diamond armor and a diamond sword. The creator of the map could build and be in creative, while the other players would be in survival. The creator would build things such as more arenas, for the players to PvP in. When using a flat world and trying to make a PvP map, it’s usually pretty hard because you are in a new flat world, and sometimes people try to attack you. 
 
I was thinking of some more ideas, when I thought about map descriptions. You could add a description to your private map and tell about it. Like, if a player joined you and asked you what it was, you could just tell them to read the description. Each map will have a description option, you can choose to leave this empty. It is basically optional, you can add a description to tell about your map, or leave it blank. This would be very helpful for when you join a private map and are very confused. 
 
Planet of Cubes could also have a membership. I’m not sure what it would give you, maybe more coins for logging in and a few other things. Players who had a membership could have a rainbow-colored chat tag or something, or like their name would be rainbow-colored. There would be a lot of perks for being a member on Planet of Cubes, I’m still kind of thinking of some of the perks that could be added for it. It would probably be like $4.99 a month. Every month, you could get maybe around a thousand coins for being a member.
 
One thing that even MineCraft doesn’t have, is monkeys. Maybe monkeys could be added into the game, and bananas too. I got this idea kinda late at night. You could feed monkeys bananas and you could see monkeys swinging around in / on trees. There would be a monkey spawn egg too. Maybe you could place bananas too. Like, if you placed a banana and a player stepped on it, the player would slip and deal just a few damage. This could sometimes maybe be used as a trap.
 
I have always kind of been thinking about maps being added. What I mean, is you could make a map and then there would be a button, that could show the surrounding things around you on the map. This feature is in MineCraft, but maybe there could be different maps. For example, “Torn Map”, if you place the map and break it then it becomes a Torn Map. When you have an Empty Map, a button will show up somewhere on the screen. When you tap the button, the map has particles come off of it, and the surrounding chunks slowly load. When the particles have disappeared and all the chunks around you on the map have loaded, then it will go from “Empty Map” to “Map”, or “Empty Map” to “Full Map”. There could also be a button that could choose to update the map. You could update the miniature map for gems or coins, it will then become an “Empty Map” again, and soon show the updated chunks. This map will not be a large map, just a small one that shows a few chunks around you. 
 
I think being able to rename your items would be cool. Instead of using EXP to rename your items, you could rename them with gems or coins. Maybe gems, because it would give gems a few more features. It should block out inappropriate things though still. When going to an anvil, instead of using a Name Tag, you could choose to repair or rename your item. Choosing the repair button would still be the same, like diamonds and coins to repair your Diamond Sword. But, when you tap on the rename button, you will have to place your item in, and you will have to put in what you want to name the item. It will also take some of your gems when you rename it. It will not rename it if the item is called something inappropriate, meaning it will not take your gems.
 
Private Map Whitelist: I have also been thinking about this suggestion for along time. This is sometimes needed, because sometimes people try to raid your Private Maps. If you knew their usernames, or the username of the person hosting the raid, you could block them from the map. You would just have to search up their username in the settings of your private map. There would be an option to block players from your map there, you could search up their username and they would appear. When you would tap on them, you could choose to temporarily block them and add a time for them to be blocked from joining the map, or you could temporarily block / ban them. You would have an option to remove them from being blocked too. In your map settings, it could also show the players you have blocked from the map. 
 
I might add a few more suggestions, but I am not sure about any others right now. There is no way all of these could be added, but maybe a few of them could? Let me know what you think in the comment section! 
Thanks! -V01d
