SMP Gameplay

[Seniority]

Snowcraft SMP Outline -

Hello everyone, I am Seniority, a (new) Supervisor here on Snowcraft and I am grateful to be organizing the SMP server. This is certainly going to be a lot of fun. If you would like to reach out to me I will leave my Discord below, or send a direct message through the forums. Both shall be fair response times.

Addressing Gameplay
With most servers claiming to be SMP, most players never agree on it. So what we need to know is YOUR idea of SMP (Survival Multiplayer). Now remember, this doesn’t have to be the way your friends play it or how you’ve previously played it. It’s how you want to play it. Therefore, I will be leaving a template involving a little questionnaire and ‘preference protocol’ we can call it. Please be sure to input your honest beliefs and be critical when it comes to defending the key aspects of your point. The more explaining, the better the outcome of the experience.

When it comes to players’ protection, we like to ensure a safe, non-toxic and flexible community. Therefore, griefing in any shape or form will not be allowed. PvP will be optional with a command to toggle player vs player damage. However PvP will need to be agreed upon by both parties before battling it out. Entering Warp PvP is agreeing/consenting to PvP.

One crucial aspect I’d like to bring up is the fact that we will be encouraging projects and builds. In some form or manner there will be rewards. I believe a ranking system would be cool, achieved by building, this will require an admin’s review and approval.

Economy
There has been a few ways that have crossed my mind on how to do this -

1. Trading - No money, materials are valuables.

2. A simple economy - Money is scarce and playershops are the only source of economic circulation. Money is introduced into the economy through voting, giveaways and events.

3. A prominent economy - Admin shops are present in two options:
Option A: To sell resources and materials (mainly mob drops, farming and valuables) playershops will be available to be created.
Option B: To buy and sell resources and materials

4**merald currency: Emerald is traded with a villager on a 1:1 value, players can price their playershops in a reasonable fashion.


Protection
There will be protection options, expansions will be obtainable by voting and donating. There are also two ways to go about land claim -
Option A: Claim blocks that claim a 25x25, 50x50, 100x100, 500x500 or 1000x1000 depending.
Option B: Golden shovel, selectable/adjustable sizing.
Core aspects (Vanilla/Semi-vanilla)
Some players enjoy semi-vanilla aspects but don’t see it as ‘SMP,’ I believe that SMP requires playing in a survival manner, with other players. No real right or wrong way.

Therefore, if players would like the server to be vanilla oriented with some assisting features, please let this be heard. If you would like to have things like /tpa, /home etc, that is considered semi-vanilla. If you would like semi-vanilla please also let this be heard!

Admin Shop (If shops are wanted)
The three ways we could run our admin shop are:
Option A: Shop GUI accessible by typing /shop
Option B: A physical shop you access by typing /warp shop
Option C: Both option A and B.
I will likely be choosing option C, prices will be equivalent unless Option A or B is voted by a long haul.

Do you like any of the described economy options?:
I enjoy number three as that will allow for players to work solo or as a huge group if they want. They won't be limited to making a shop or trading with others to make money.

Do you prefer protection option A or B?:
I prefer option B because that is what I am used to. Golden Shovel claiming is simple and allows for more then just a square of claim.

Would you rather flat vanilla or semi-vanilla aspects (like /tpa, /home?):
I would request we do semi-vanilla to allow for warps, homes and tpa requests. Which helps with player trading, shops, and friends working together

Which Admin Shop setup option do you like?:
I will go for option C, however I feel that the warp should have special sales every now and then on random blocks and/or items to give it interest. (I can always make a good admin shop warp)
