Your View: Nexus Crafting

[KarmaPhantasm 3]

I guess I shall share my input.

 

From the moment I came back about a week and a half ago, I was highly confused over what this crafting plugin was and how to work it. Though, with a little help from OOC, I was able to grab the basics of it pretty quickly. Though, so far I have not been using it and just wandering around. The most time I had touching it was when I was playing an Orc 2 days or so ago. That was when I got deep into it. So far, I have mixed feelings, I will separate them both for easy reading pleasure:

 

The Good:

What I liked about the plugin was that it was really, and I mean REALLY immersive, albeit some of the wait times. It made me feel like, with some items, I was actually crafting the items in an actual roleplay environment. It also had it's own custom names for items, such as the dough, pancakes, hooks, hammers, etc. That, I really liked. I also liked how the skills and crafting were formed together, that was really nice.

 

The Bad: 

Though, I feel some of the ways this plugin runs is a bit... off putting. As I said before, the wait times are sometimes strange. Sometimes it bugged, and sometimes it didnt on some things, that I am sure has been revealed from feedback. There was also the situation with the UI for me when waiting for items to be crafted. Before, I did not know how to navigate the UI to craft items that had a waiting period. It took me a good day or so to realize I had to actually refresh the UI to see the icon to claim my item. I am pretty sure I was not the first to be confused on how that worked, so yeah. Also, when waiting to craft, and during server restarts, since I was unlucky at one time, I ended up losing the items used to craft. Though, I do not know if that was the server's fault or not, I would just like to add that in. I do not know if this is in the crafting as well, but the expiration dates on crafted food is also somewhat of a weird thing. It still goes while people are offline, and people lose a great deal of product and food because of this. I know it has been addressed before, but I believe maybe a 3 day expiration time. Also, the long strings of crafting materials to make other things is good at some points, but sometimes it just seems like a hassle. That is just my own experience with it due to low resources, but that was just my thoughts on that.

 

The Verdict:

All in all, this plugin has great potential when cleaned up of the obvious bugs. Though tedious at times, it is really good RP for those armor, swordsmen, and cooks and what not to RP with. It is really one of the best crafting mods I have had the pleasure to come into contact with, even though I havent really been in contact with any before this server I believe.

 

This is my feedback, feel free to say your do's, or don't, I do not mind since I am sure all of this was brought up at one point or another.

I think all together like most people have said, Lessen the wait times and finish adding in the rest of the crafting recopies and perhaps shift some around from which job needs them in order to craft them. Oh and maybe change the levels, I would like to be my black smith and Still make Wooden stairs please.

You removed too many crafting times.

[Pinochet 356]

Just remove it..please. I don't want realism, I just want to roleplay without having to wait a hour for one thing to craft..Just remove all these limits and just let people roleplay for once.

There is a big rant that I originally wrote out but I removed because I don't know if it is appropriate. Basically this:

Please make writable books accessible to everyone. It doesn't take any skill to grab some ink and use a book that you already have. And WOODWORKING? What, are you going to carve the the ink into the book with a chisel?

This is all just vanilla minecraft not nexus-craft. The recipe is now in the workbench GUI which is a catch-all as well as the woodworking station. oh the recipe is actually easier than vanilla MC. You can make books in the 2x2 the classic way if you prefer.

he means you need woodworking skill to make book and quill and normal books, Meaning you need to be promising to make books, instead of inept.

I just want my different Biome fish back.....they were so wonderful in Anthos and had so much fun and Rp value!  :: Sobs and throws fishing line back in the water trying to catch an Alefish ::

 

(( Totally want that Plug-in by the way for Single Player, I'd be going nuts on it ))

I don't believe 2x2 works for making books into book and quill, but if it does then I will do it that way from now on.

Moved to The Great Library. It shall be sorted into the appropriate category shortly.
