    Hello,

    As yet again, mojang decides to push a major update out. This means that we will be updating SG accordingly, and working on balancing it as much as possible.

    Now, I'll create a poll later on, once we have a list of features that you all would like added.

    Please refer to this page on the MC Wiki for what 1.9 is going to be adding.

    http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/1.9

    Post below in the following format; regarding what you would like to see added to sg.

    Code:
    What feature are you interested in?:
    
    Why do you want it added?:
    
    How do you propose it be added?:
    
    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math:

    What feature are you interested in?: SG kit with poison arrows and such

    Why do you want it added?: To use as a way for the ability to tip arrows in 1.9

    How do you propose it be added.?: SG kit, but also make some other potions maybe available in chests to tip arrows?

    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math: Potato. I cannot give much more info on this because I don't know how they work much at all yet

    What feature are you interested in?:

    Spectral arrow (Gold arrow)

    Why do you want it added?:

    It shows when a user is invisible, make it a spy-counter.

    How do you propose it be added.?:

    Add it via /kit scv (scavanger) by replacing regular arrows with them. (Or make it so each ++ kit spawns 2-3 of them)

    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math:

    Urm.. there's no maths behind this I think.. basically you replace an arrow type in a kit with 'em :p

    What feature are you interested in?: Shields

    Why do you want it added?: For use in defense and potentially even kits

    How do you propose it be added.?: In chests of course, but possibly in a kit (although shields may become OP, as they defend and probably will be enchantable)

    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math: Not much else to explain, add the shields in whatever way you so desire, whether kits or chests or both.

    What feature are you interested in? The shields
    Why do you want it added? It can add more than hitting and running to SG, makes the game have more ways to make strategies and ways to win.
    How do you propose it be added? By giving them in chests (and ifcraftsble, giving the materials needed for it in the chests as well)
    Other info? Maybe make the Shields themselves have a 5-10% chance of being found in chests and the materials needed later, since I have no idea what the materials will be needed for making the shields.

    We don't need a spy counter. Spy is already underpowered in my opinion.

    What feature are you interested in?:
    Lower-level healing and regen potions with arrows.
    Why do you want it added?:
    You could use these to heal a teammate that is in battle.
    How do you propose it be added?:
    Through another kit.
    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math:
    I would suggest only the first level potions. Not the potions already available in Buffer.

    What feature are you interested in?:
    Not putting all of the new features of the 1.9 being shoved into new kits

    Why do you want it added?:
    Because just because SG is basically a kit-brawl, doesn't mean everything has to BE a kit..

    How do you propose it be added?:
    Simply DON'T add it as a kit.

    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math:
    I really think that this update would help combat all the kits. Those who have the kits are going to get kind of upset and have tantrums, demanding that something to be done to return their advantages to how they used to. But ffs, don't just add everything into kits.

    I'm not saying that there shouldn't BE kits, because there's clearly rooms for more. But please, don't just cram all the new things into kits...

    Shields
    Why do you want it added?:
    Defense in general.
    How do you propose it be added?:
    Since we can't block with a sword we will need shields to block, so add them to the kits.
    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math:
    Not much more to explain.

    Yes! However, I know the perfect kit which this could be added into....

    Take Grenadier, which has two of each potion, and change it such that there is one of each (Poison, Damage, Weakness, and Slowness). Then, maybe give 5 short poison arrows, or whatever it be to replace that.

    Either way, I personally feel this could be easily added with the current Grenadier setup, it would just require tweaking. Any other effect arrows...not sure, but would LOVE to see them. It would add a whole new aspect to SG and would help out the good marksmen with some pluses.

    What a person who spends a lot of money on a game sees: Yes! More kits from r me to beat up on people!
    What the normal person sees: Again? This isn't healthy adding more kits...

    What feature are you interested in?: Levitation status effect splash potions to be added so they can be found randomly in chests. NOT. IN. KITS.

    Why do you want it added?: Because it can give an advantage in battle or allow you to escape if your opponent uncontrolledly flies up into the air for a few seconds. Depending on how fast they will rise, I propose a time of about 3-5 seconds so that the player using them can get away without dealing far too much damage to the attacked player when dropping down.

    How do you propose it be added?: SG config, items to be found randomly in chests.

    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math:
    You want me to be technical?
    ...
    ...
    ...

    YESSIR.
    Code:
    potion 1 <Random splash potion ID> {CustomPotionEffects:[{Id:(effectID of),Amplifier:1,Duration:3}]}
    
    Custom NBT tags to...
    • ...get the normally unobtainable status effect from the new 1.9 mob's projectiles onto a splash potion.
    • ...set a very short timeframe to avoid guaranteed death from one potion.
    • ...maybe create different tiers of levitation potions with durations/amplifiers varying by 1 or 2, indicated with custom Lore and Name NBTs?
    @JamieSinn, two things...
    1. I apologize for only being technical and excluding any sort of math. Take this equation instead. :) N^O-M/(O^R-E)*K/I*(T!-S) = G-O²+O/D
    2. Please tell me that the SG plugin not only accepts damage values in its config, but also NBT tags which would be the major requirement for this suggestion. Pleeez. ;-;
    P.S.
    100% of all 314s support this suggestion. It has been found that it increases SG fun for some players by over 31.4% in a placebo study.

    (There, statistics added, too. :p)

    For us non-combat types (there are dozens of us! DOZENS!)

    What feature are you interested in?:
    1. Grass Path Blocks
    2. Dual Wielding
    3. Purple blocks and chorus plants (and fruit)
    4. Death Messages

    Why do you want it added?:
    1. Decorative purposes
    2. Helps with building / easier to remove "oops" blocks placed in the wrong position.
    3. No idea what look like yet, but it should look neat SOMEwhere ;)
    4. omg, please make this only show up in SG chat / messages. If someone has /SG Messages turned off *raises hand*, don't make them (me) see an obnoxious message everytime someone dies *shudders*

    How do you propose it be added.?:
    1. Allow them to be used in existing areas (Rising / Legacy / Aether) without adding on to the existing border
    2. Um... don't block it? *shrugs*
    3. See above
    4. This seems like it may take some coding to redirect the messages into a specific chat.


    Please explain in more detail. Be as technical as possible, also, we love stats and math:
    umm... ok...
    2*sqrt(-abs(abs(x)-1)*abs(3-abs(x))/((abs(x)-1)*(3-abs(x))))(1+abs(abs(x)-3)/(abs(x)-3))sqrt(1-(x/7)^2)+(5+0.97(abs(x-.5)+abs(x+.5))-3(abs(x-.75)+abs(x+.75)))(1+abs(1-abs(x))/(1-abs(x))),-3sqrt(1-(x/7)^2)sqrt(abs(abs(x)-4)/(abs(x)-4)),abs(x/2)-0.0913722(x^2)-3+sqrt(1-(abs(abs(x)-2)-1)^2),(2.71052+(1.5-.5abs(x))-1.35526sqrt(4-(abs(x)-1)^2))sqrt(abs(abs(x)-1)/(abs(x)-1))+0.9

    and... umm..
    1:1.26 people will google this.

    I thought "Wow, the last time I saw something as annoying as this was the batman function a few months ago. No idea what this is supposed to yield though...".
    Then googled.
    "Oh. It actually is the same." :p
