    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    All Main Servers
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Magic shovel drops
    What are you suggesting:
    I suggest that magic shovel can be toggled on and off with drops. So if i like dig out 5x5x1, it can drop all dirt blocks in that area to me, instead of deleting it all.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    Sometimes a terraforming also need to be placed some blocks, and its annoying when you removed a 5x5x1 spot, that shouldnt be removed, and you then need to gather back those resources from another place.
    Other information:
    You can toggle from 1x1x1, 3x3x1 and 5x5x1, so it should also be possible to make toggling like this with, and without the actual drops.
    Plugin or custom addition:
    Custom addition.
    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    If it is just dirt then I don't see why not, but the magic shovel was intended for excavation, not collection of materials. If it drops anything other than dirt, it becomes, in my opinion, way too OP.

    -1 I think it would be too OP.

    It is now a special tool which is powerful. In my opinion every tool needs also a downside of using it.

    For example fishing rod has the downside of needing to walk/ not as fast money as other ways.

    magic hoe has as downside that crops have to regrow.

    -1 This would be far too overpowered, getting materials 25x faster is absurd.

    Have you considered the fact that we now get money like 25x faster?

    Kinda what ECC pickaxe is already, so i dont see why it can generate drops, just those drops a shovel normally drops.

    Eh
    I dont think it should drop stuff.
    You mention the Magic pickaxe collecting stuff quicker. Yeah it autosmelts ore, it doesnt break 25 blocks in one swing...I dont think you can compare the two at all.
    The Magic Axe was limited on Mcmmo because the same reason of the fact you are removing multiple blocks with one swing of your tool. No other tool does this apart from the Shovel, which is why the shovel is limited for the very same reason.
    You say this yet you have bought at least 20-30k's worth of dirt from just one station...so is it really worthless?
    I know you and many others also buy bulk dirt, so I dont really know why you are trying to make it seem like dirt is worthless unless youre doing that for your own gain with this suggestion...

    Its a slippery slope when you go oh its just a block that isnt worth much, it wont impact much if we make it so people can gain literally obscene amounts of dirt in seconds. its another block which dissapears out of the selection of block worth selling for up and coming players who are making money using their shops.

    After reading this I’m changing my opinion to -1. I agree with Mission.

    Dirt is a block that has its vaule determined on the open market. That means that a 2500% inflation would apply it it, thus naturally making dirt be roughly equal in terms of labor/value.
    So this statement fails to justify the suggestion.

    -1 imo, magic shovel should not directly obtain ECD. Yes, if you’re careful, you can easily find ores (I found an inventory of iron in about a half hour). It already drops treasure (which is a bug and shouldn’t). You should get no drops whatsoever with this tool; it’s a builder’s tool. Not every magic tool needs to generate ECD and should be diverse for everyone, esp a tool that can be super OP like this one.

    Absolutely not, and this is me without even reading the responses to this thread.
    If you'd like drops, use a regular tool.
