The60th 1303 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2022 BREWING PLUGIN Concept Feedback & Your View ━━━━━━┛✠┗━━━━━━ New plugins and ideas are constantly proposed and tossed around by the player base and if proposed and thought out thoroughly sometimes will come to fruition. This post serves to share a popular plugin proposal going around recently and open up a medium for player feedback and constructive criticism. It has always been a priority of the Tech Team to create these plugins that enhance the user experience while staying true to the LOTC mission statement and goal… Roleplay. ━━━━━━┓ ✠ ┏━━━━━━ More than a bottle. [Plugin Concept] Since LOTC’s creation, taverns, brewing and drink serving have always been a popular choice of roleplay among players. It is undoubtedly one of the largest niche’s on LOTC which typically goes overlooked on a daily basis. After a large proposal was made by some players, we concluded it needed a major upgrade – so working alongside some of these people and staff we bring you this concept: Recipe to success. [Plugin Mechanics] Preparing The player will have to put specific items into a cauldron (following a server-provided recipe), this mix will have to sit there and cook for a set time depending on the type of beverage. Once the cauldron is done cooking, the player may transfer the basic brew to an aging cask using a bucket so the aging process may start. Aging During the aging process the player will be able to customize their beverage to the fullest (similar to the current /edit) method. They will be provided a GUI similar to this: The Book: Players can assign the cask a description and name, the result of this will be a permanent tag on the cask (unless changed) which eventually further down the process will output exactly into your Keg / Bottle. Renaming an item through this method will not ask for a rename token to be consumed. The Barrel: Information about the barrel (Cask name preview, Cask description preview, time aged, beverage type, potion effects) The Dye: Color of drink once a bottle is used on it. Quality The quality of the batch is determined by how well the player followed the recipe in regards to time aged and ingredients. It will also determine the duration of added effects such as blindness, slowness or nausea. The quality of a batch is one of the following: [★☆☆] [★★☆] [★★★] Serving The aged beverage can be taken out of the aging barrel using a serving keg. A keg will take all of the contents out of the cask and at which point all previous data which could’ve been altered (name, desc, color, etc.) can NO LONGER be changed. Instead, that information is imprinted onto the Keg permanently. Upon being placed down, the keg allows any player to right click the tap (tripwire hook) with a glass bottle to take out a single serving (1 bottle [1/64]). This bottle will have the exact data the player imprinted on the cask previously: changed name, description, color, and all. GOAL Overall the goal of this plugin will be to enhance Roleplay from the players perspective by making an interactive and immersive tavern environment. Being able to sit on the other side of a bar while the tavernkeep hand pours your drink is the vision of this future QOL plugin. It has been recognized that the folly of past plugins is that they create these mandatory systems that players must abide by – yet we’re deciding to take a different approach. Making drinks the current way will still be entirely possible with /edit and the cost of an edit token. Albeit you will miss out on the brewing mechanics, potion effects, the possibility to store it in a Keg, and hand pour the item. So for those who want a quick drink, /edit will be your friend. For those who wish for some deep immersion and neat mechanics – we hope you’ll like this plugin. ALL SUBJECT TO CHANGE What’s next? As an individual on LOTC what plugins could help enhance your roleplay experience and overall quality of life while playing the server. The replies below are your stage and we only ask that you thoroughly think through and develop an idea before suggesting it so it is possible that more plugins like the Brewing Plugin above may come to light. If you have a plugin idea / concept, fully think out the complexities and functionalities of it – even if you’re questioning its possibility. We should all collectively aim to work together to make LOTC a better roleplaying environment and we hope this platform can help inspire some people with some creativity to do so.

The60th 1303 Author Share Posted June 16, 2022 Just to add without drawing attention away from the point of the post, NPC's and the Head's plugin are fixed and just awaiting approval and to be put in with the next push. Likewise, Limited Creative and Purchase Fly are also in the works and hopefully should be done soon! Spoiler 26 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
