NewMinecraft Name: GhostsJack01 Suggestion: Make trade signs which give access to places Reason: for a while I've wanted to make a subway station where players can press a sign and pay an amount and once pressed, it would open a [door] or [gate] or [bridge]. I believe that it could be set out like this on the signs: [Access] $[the amount being charged] [length the door, gate or bridge will be open for ] [Owners name] This idea would be useful for players wanting to make carnival / fareground games. Without me being there 24/7 , I cannot charge every player who wants to use my non-free subway. Other Information: Uses: Charge access for use of in-town subways Charge access for turns on fareground rides. Link to this plugin/Is this a custom addition? Custom addition.
I've never seen something like this before. If it would be easy to add, I think it would be a cool addition to the economy. However, if these "access signs" are used for the purpose of letting someone enter an area (for a certain amount of money), players could always sethome in these paid areas so they could return whenever they need to use whatever service is being provided to them. I mean, that could be an issue, but I don't see it as being the main reason this would be held back because most players wouldn't do that. I'll give this a +1 for the fact that it would be useful for town owners and people trying to make some extra money, but it would have to be easy to add or it wouldn't be worth the time for the developers. However, the only downside is that this would most likely only be available to people who have extcreations, so the only people who can profit from them would be the people who have the feature. You couldn't get someone to place them for you, unless you trust them to pay you all of the money they made from them. That would ruin the purpose of new players using this to make some extra money off their towns, but then again, it would give them more of a reason to purchase extcreations.
Very few people have multihome anyway and I doubt anyone with 1 home would set it there. Thank you for your reply and I do agree with everything you've said
I was going to do something like this with the maze, have a paid entrance, because it got a lot of activity, I would set up a macro so that if someone paid me at least $100 they would receive a tpahere request. With just me being AFK, this would work perfectly!!
Oh absolutely! Your idea is much better for something to do when you aren't online, and mine has MANY idea flaws, but I was just saying something I could have done for a bit
See https://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/suggestion-sign-redstone-logic-gates.31063/#post-140705 as to why this can't be done.
No, the point of this post is that essentials cannot output a redstone signal from the signs and nor will this happen.
