Setting /Home restrictions

(1/3) > >>

Nikoljan:
Hello all! Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I wanted to make a small suggestion I thought of today. We have quite a few users who are private about their homes , and I noticed placing door blocks at /home is common to prevent entry. I was wondering if there is some way we could permit certain restrictions when creating a /home. To prevent unwanted players access. Ex. Setprivatehome and so on.  To clarify, I'm not talking about land/area access , I'm referring to using someone else's /home.
I think even being able to toggle private or public for a current home is an idea as well.
Thanks again, cheers.
Nikoljan.

PS: if I were to write the code would it be something you all would consider.

I agree with your suggestion. This has been suggested before. I am not entirely sure why this suggestion has not been implemented as there hasn't really been any down side to this thought up of. It may be that the staff do not have the time to implement this.

However, if you want to write the code for such a function, don't post it. Sounds crazy, but I posted a code snippet once, and people pretty much called me a "script kiddy" trying to show off with simple code. Also, the staff here are a little uneasy about code coming from outside sources. At least they are from my point of view.

Nikoljan:
Thanks for the feedback! And yeah I can see how they might be uneasy about an outside code. I'm throwing various options out there.   ;)

This is a pretty cool suggestion, it can be useful for people who are making projects, or just starting out. What I have seen some trusteds do to provide some kind of protection for their home is type "/sethome %a<name>" which makes the home appear to be accessable by just typing /home <player> <name> after typing /homes <player> because the name will show up in a green tint.

It's because this is a suggestions board, and showing how the code works is not a suggestion.
