    Alright,
    As I was sitting here building my brig, it suddenly hit me that I would never be able to make a fleet of identical, beautiful brigs. This made me sad and I began to think. “What if there was a way to copy and paste identical ships, using the resources in your inventory?” Imagine the possibilities! Boats could be produced quicker and naval warfare in the server would multiply. Instead of having boat showdowns every 2-3 months, ship battles could be a regular occurrence. Imagine walking onto your front porch of your house/base/fort/etc. and seeing a giant, beautiful man o’ war glide by and into the sunrise. These ships could be produced easily for large empires. Brigs could be used as traders. Schooners as rum runners. Frigates to patrol the waters. With this power, empires could flourish. Rival crews could block another’s ports and sink each other’s ships. Sure, it would cost you the resources, but hours of building would be no more. Ship showdowns like the Battle of Trafalgar could be real events, not just fantasies for the dreamers. I believe, that this would multiply his servers awesomeness by 10, maybe even more 😀 thank you for your time and I hope you took what I said to heart…
    (On the technical side, you could keep the resources in a chest or two so that you are not limited to just the slots in your inventory.)
    (Could you link the chest and ship by redstone? Like the sign shops?)
    -And lastly, if anybody could find me info about a plugin like this, that would be amazing! 😀

    I just looked up “copy and paste plugin minecraft” on Google, there are lots of plug-ins but they don’t take blocks from your inventory. Also even if the plugin description says it won’t cause lag, copying and pasting 5000 blocks is gonna make a lot of lag

    That would be nice but it would still take a lot of resources and ships are still very hard to defend.

    Thank you for all the feedback.

     

    Lag may be a problem, maybe there would be a way to put a time limit on it? Like it would build very slowly for 2 hours? (Still way faster than building a copy yourself) then again, the server does having moving ships, shooting cannons, and sign ships that could give you whatever you want…

    I must say though, the  1.10 Structure Block Technique looks promising.

    Why not just adding more ship shops like the one at cove all around the map?

    There is a repair system built in already to ships.

    Where a repair sign can search all chests on board a ship for materials to repair the ship automatically. could something like this be used?

    @GodsDead

    Maybe. Could you use one of those to completely build the ship from the ground up? The ship shops are cool, but i think player built ones would even be better. EX: Somebody pays you 1,500 to copy your boat design. They go back to their base, and they paste it

    That would be fun

    This isnt going to happen, having a “duping” ship on a survival server is a really stupid idea. someone will figure out how to dupe diamond blocks on it. Chest full of diamond? Dupe the ship. There isnt any way this is going to happen.

    What will happen, is we are planning a games server with a ton of ships just for battle and destroying each other, that resets.
