Well maybe there could be ‘training’ boats for deckhands.

They could just be simple little boats in 20×20 pens and they have the helm (turning), release and connect to boats.

There could be signs on the side which could ask them to go through a sort of ‘tutorial’ stage where they do different things.

e.g. different controls and their explanations, how to turn it (some don’t realise that you have to do it with an empty hand) etc.

This could possibly be a part of the rank up stage and it could help them feel more motivated to possibly donate or carry on playing.

this could possibly be a warp.

the sign command for them should only be able to be made with tutorial purposes by staff and it could be demo or trial boat something along the lines of that.

If you would like me to post some pictures of what it could possibly look like and the basic layout that would be fine and also if you would rather someone else could make it and if you would I would be happy to and if you don’t like it you could just edit it to your preference.

Thanks

i believe that the spawns for carpenter-gunner at least need to be removed from the cove, since there is a /warp cove, and its kinda wierd to have 2 cove warps. maybe like in separate houses throughout the world?

why not make it so the area automatically resets every 5-10 minutes, so training could be scheduled. When the area is resetting, it could teleport all players to spawn/the nearest warp.

Alternatively, you could create another new rank (it’s a long shot, I know) called ”Trainer” who would have permissions to use a reset button on the area. The rank would basically give the player the same kits as Captain would, but also give them a Trainer kit, which contains a golden hoe.

It would also be a great time to make cannons the Deckhands could play around with, with a dispenser of some sort giving them different ammunitions to try.

This would most definitely reduce the amount of people that spam ”How do I make a ship?” or ”Do the ships actually sail?” etc.

@godsdead
I would love the opportunity to help build a town or expand/ repair existing towns at one of the existing warps I have been working on my own town at live map co ords 3791.65.1673
the place includes a stable,blacksmiths,enchanting/potion/portal building,main hall,3 shops,9 rent able homes with vaults and many plots set out for people to build homes shops etc. I would love too be considered for some of the above building tasks if my builds are good enough. feel free to come for a tour when im on line . I originally built it for a place for new players to start where everything is available also I was going to op for a warp just before they was taken off had the cash ready too lol. anyway thanks for taking time to read this __DarkLight__

I have a question about this thread. Are these things still needed? If so, I’d like to take over one of the warps and make a cool build at it. I was originally thinking something like a stonehedge and the player would spawn in the middle of the circle but I might come up with another idea after taking another look at the different warps. The one I was thinking though was /warp south or /warp east because those are the only ones without any sort of interesting build at them.

@Godsdead I would be happy to take on the task of completing the /warp north if that is alright with you?
I’m also open to any other warps that are available.
