MOVECRAFT

 

What is it?

Movecraft is a plugin that has been designed to give purpose to those extremely large (and awesome) oceans as well as to simply give the option to sail, drive, or pilot ships, cars, zeppelin/airships, etc. The possibilities are only limited by what you can build! It allows the player and/or players to craft Vessels out of blocks that can be piloted and thus moved. Hence the name MoveCraft.

What can you do with it?

You can build something and have it move around. It is highly customizable. So, Pat can add vehicles to it. The default plugin setting has Ships, Cars, Airskiffs, Airships, Doors, submarines and a lot of others. Or, you can mount a cannon onto it. And blow stuff up. 

Why am I suggesting this?

I am suggesting this for the survival factions server. I think it would be pretty cool to have people flying airships, sailing ships and submarines on the factions server. And, the factions can duke it out by creating crafts and fighting with them.

Do note, these videos were made by the creator of movecraft himself. 

 

How customizable is it?

Very. If you think large crafts will lag the server. The size of the crafts can be limited to a small amount of 1-2 thousand blocks. If you want say, a flying yellow banana, that can be made possible with some tinkering with the configs.

I hope this will be implemented. 

Thank you for your time.

 Nice suggestion!

Its creator, BaccaYarro, would probably add in features for the factions plugin soon.

 Has he/she mentioned anything about an update that will make it compatible with Factions?

I retract my statement.

No, he has not and does not plan on doing so. But, movecraft does have support for Worldguard. As shown in this video.

So, it would require some tinkering on your part to make this work.

I really think the implementation of movecraft would be a great one..

I'll make sure to take a look at it sometime in the coming weeks as I'm currently pretty busy with studies. Cheers.

Alright, just let me know when you start working on it. 

I watched one of BaccaYarro's tutorials and I am still confused how this plugin works.

Its pretty easy to get the hang of. There are a few main things the manuvering is based on. The pilot tool, rotating and the cruise.

so will it be added

I just looked through the source code and it looks like it would be pretty easy to add Factions compatibility. The question is if everyone is on board with adding this plugin, as it would be a pretty big change to the server.

so will it be added

Depends if people want it.
