    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    All Main Servers
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Ability to break spawner (if one placed)
    What are you suggesting:
    Currently we can't destroy spawners in the mining world, which is a good idea to prevent more griefing. It would be great to allow the person who placed the spawner to be able to destroy it, at least him.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    Other information:
    In these situations, (as shown in screens), people can be easily trolled, and there is no way to stop this. My suggestion is, ok I lose my setup and got trolled, no problem it already happened, but to prevent others players from being trolled, maybe giving the permission to the one who set up spawners to destroy them is a way to stop the troll. No spawners, no troll.
    Because spawners are umbreakable, there are currently no solution to stop this (except time, but some players seem to be passionated in this kind of stuff and to don't get tired of it).
    As a result of it, we saw this Morning (night for the majority) some players filling complaints, whereas they got trolled and did not even have a clue of it. Again, if the one who placed it can destroy it, everybody stop losing time.

    Thanks for reading.

    I Understand.


    Edit : When I say break, it means destroying the block without looting it of course​

    I forgot to mention it, but the result si that some players got banned, without (for some) even knowing they got trolled (they lose their money) and kind of trapped. I don't seem so, but breaking spawners would have prevent that (only for the owner, or it will be a zoo)

    Then all I have to do is place my polar bear spawners this month. A day or two before reset, go pick them up, then place them next month + all the new ones I got, rinse and repeat.

    This will kill the economy. Massive -1 from me.

    You should probably read the Edit I made hours ago to prevent this kind of message after reading too fast. But I will write it again.

    When I say "Break" It means destroy. A day or two before you can go break them, and you won't loot anything. No problem.

    I don't think its possible to restrict who can break the spawners to just the one who placed it, but I could be wrong.

    -1 from me

    I agree with Revan, I just don’t know if this is possible. And if it is possible idk how much work it will take the developers to implement. I guess if it was super easy then sure +1, but I don’t see it as a big enough problem.

    If spawners could be locked via the LWC system I could see this working, but I know literally nothing about coding or anything so I’m not sure if this is even possible. Honestly I don’t see a point in being able to break them though as you wouldn’t be looting it(We can all agree looting would break the economy). I understand there is some frustration right now with spawners being found and the coords being released, but that’s the risk you take when you decide to purchase and set up spawners.

    Overall it’s a -1 from me, spawners are destroyed when the mining world resets monthly anyway. I’m sure our development team has much better things to work on.

    Beat me to it

    It would be possible with the integration of logblock, and might be a mod kozz can sell, but I would expect the time frame on it would be a bit drawn out. first linking the info from LB then setting a plot that allows only the person who placed the block to break it using deny-block-break or something. it's doable, but is it worth it?

    -1 personally if a spawner setup I made gets griefed and/or trolled I couldn't give a damn, it's the mining world griefing is allowed.

    Not happening.

    You should keep in mind, however, that intentionally messing a spawner set-up that someone happens to be using falls under our trolling/harassment rules. Please forward incidents of this happening to staff.

    People paid money for these spawners and it's not acceptable behavior to do any of this.

    Staff will now act on users trolling spawner setups.
    Breaking spawners however will never happen, people will simply break them prior to reset.
