Vote for the next EliteMobs update!
🕑 Added 2021-10-10 04:54:07 +0000 UTCHello patrons!
It's been a while since I've held a vote for the next feature that I will be working on, but I think this would be an appropriate vote to hold.
Right now the next features I plan to work on are Custom Quests, Arenas and Better Player Info.
Here's the quick breakdown:
- Custom Quests: Just what it sounds like, it would have dynamic quests and customizable quests. As you can imagine, these would be focused around EliteMobs, and be mostly focused on killing X amount of level Y elites or killing a specific Custom Boss for a start (with more features getting added when Arenas and Dungeons come out).
- Arenas: This is the bedrock for instanced Dungeons. Arenas would start off with wave-based survival, and break down into two modes: endless survival and premade waves. A leaderboard will also be held, registering who survived for the longest, creating a fun objective for people to aim for.
- Better Player Info: This would be an update entirely focused around providing a clearer visual breakdown of how EliteMobs works both as they are playing through various in-game displays and through outside resources like wikis and Youtube videos. This would include things such as clearer information formats about boss resistances and weaknesses, what enchantments do, better displays for getting elite coins, and so on.
Now that I got that out of the way, let me just take a second to break down what I am currently cooking and why I am holding this vote.
Currently I am focusing on fixing the various issues that have been reported about EliteMobs which have taken a backseat because they were not game breaking.
This includes things such as a better way to do flags for dungeons, fixing various terrain exploits in dungeons, fixing file names, improving the accuracy of the antiexploit and so on. You may have noticed that I created a new Discord bot - TrelloLink - which allows me to instantly create trackable issues on Trello .
The lack of a quick and convenient way to write down the sometimes hundreds of reports per week has been a challenge, but the bot has already helped me immensely in the last 24h with fixing some key issues that have been lying around for a long time.
That aside, the Chapter 3 of the Oasis is officially done getting built, and we are currently adding the bosses, loot, treasure chests and lots and lots and lots of transitive blocks. Once again, 69OzCanOfBepis has outdone himself, and it looks amazing - I especially like the Port that he created.
With regards to why I am holding a vote this time around, I feel like I should not one-sidedly decide what the priorities of the plugin's development are without asking the community. I feel like all three options are interesting and important for the plugin to have, so I leave it up to the community which one should be picked!
Alright that's all for now, let's see what gets picked!
Happy adventuring,
