    I think the reason gods wants to make a prismarine only sub, is because subs are quite op if you think about it.

    For the topic of improvements on ships, could there be a way to bring back large storage units back to ships? I know in the past we have crates that let people hold larger loads on board without making tons of single chests . I do not know or remember if they were turned back on, but I know a lot of people may like having more storage room then just single chests. Also I do want to point out one time I made some one a patch of Tequila and when it was on a ship and it moved a few blocks, the Tequila became invisibility potions. I think crates may keep this from happening, or players could get around using potions requiring more expensive resources. Tequila uses cactus and cactus is way cheaper than the recipe for invisibility potions, and the tequila turned into invisibility potions from a normal single chest.

    A merchant ship that can hold more chests? We cannot re-add crates, im not going over the 1000 reasons why, ive written about it before.

    You could make an iron ship and fill it with wood! I dont think many people have enough iron blocks to make an iron block ship! let alone use it! they would be too scared to use it!

    @lawzoneon I think the reason gods wants to make a prismarine only sub, is because subs are quite op if you think about it.

    Would it be better to just add prismarine to the existing sub and then create a sub that can also be bigger?

    Uh this idea might be extremly dumb but i am going to risk it:
    I was thinking about a floating island type of ship.
    Basically it would be made of wood to be floating but also allow dirt and grassblocks.
    Maybe if thats possible i would like to use leafs as sailblocks instead of wool….however ithink green wool works as well.

    I just think this could be nice for some crazy people like me…

    PS: i see what you mean gods but maybe if we could make them small-medium sized ships like schooners or brigs and have to put at least some wood blocks for swimming on them….wouldn’t it work then?…..even if not i will find a way for floating islands! i will ;D

    Nope, This would cause all sorts of disasters, people stealing entire islands, bumping into other islands, no…haha

    It may work if we had 1 that was a server floating island that moved by itself maybe..

    I know this contradicts the current system and the logic of technological progression but it would be fantastic to see ships more resilient to cannon fire especially for wooden/sail ships. Personally I have built a large Indiaman with full auto Cannons, a realistic hull and some snazzy sails (aesthetics over functionality); and whilst the ship looks impressive, any attempt to use it in combat (particularly against a stone brick fort) would see it “blown to smithereens” in a single tnt cannon volley, or in a single broadside from another ship.

    I don’t know the details of the plugins but it would be great to see some tweaks which allow those interested in more historical styles of ship to not forfeit the defensive advantages awarded by modern stone designs.

    Kind Regards,

    Browe

    Browe i think i have an idea for you there:
    Woodlogs.
    Those are considered hard Blocks and therefore harder to destroy by cannons and if that is not enough: doubble hulls!

    That should keep your ship alive for quite some time 😉

    Now, there is this repair system…. Like where the ship can be repaired from a sign, and it searches the ship for chests and finds the materials to fix the ship. Im worried that there would be a way to duplicate blocks with it. I mean, Repairable ships at a cost + materials in chests on the ship! would be awesome! and its in the plugin!

    There should be a canoe ship type. It would be a tiny ship, with a max size of 20 blocks, and it would be available to cadet+. As its “powered” by the player, it wouldn’t require sails or an engine to move. The only blocks that are able to go on it are wood based blocks, and no chests could be put on it.

    Why? it would be faster to use a built-in-boat!

    GodsDead will hate me for requesting these since I’ve bothered him before for these things but here goes nothing!
    #1 Can larger ships like Galleons, Manowars, and Indiamans be allowed to carry iron blocks? That way my dream can come true of making a large ship that has a submarine bay for small exploration or attack subs!

    #2 Activate primitive torpedoes for certain ship files like submarines or Indiamans that do as much dmg to builds as a cobblestone cannonball shot.

    #3 Enable collision damage for dhows that doesn’t do damage to surrounding terrain but gets rid of the ship XD.

    Also, this is a request for when cruising becomes the main way of traveling with ships but I’m not sure if you can do anything about these issues. #1 Allow for command control of the ships (cruise direction + cruise stop command) #2 This is a MAJOR BUG that I remember from when I used to cruise around in a ship. At one point something would go wrong and the chat would be filled up with “Error sign not found at location xx,yy,zz” … I’m not sure if this is still the case but I’m just warning you about it so you can keep an eye out for the problem.
    P.S. Tell me if you need any help testing.

    passive aggressive much? No Ani, you haven’t asked for these things.

    1. I was under the assumption Iron blocks were already allowed? There must be a reason they were not?
    2. No torpedoes WILL NOT happen, how many times do I need to say this, they can not be detected by griefprevention, it would allow anyone to make really really really cheap torpedoes and destroy peoples bases without any regard to the protection.
    3. Again the “collision damage” is not what it is, its “collisionExplosion” which means they can only explode on contact, I trialed this with demolition ships already and again, they do not respect grief prevention claims, again people would abuse this and damage claims. There is no “collision damage” that only damages the ships, It wouldnt be very effective and there would be a lot of ship mess at the docks where they are for sale as people would just crash them into the dock and they would sink, someone that is not used to controls would reverse it into the dock moments after buying one, I dont see the point in this at all.
