What's your Minecraft Username?: Oliverium
What's the title of your suggestion?: Profitable Hobbies - Metal Detecting + more!
What's your suggestion?:
Add some hobbies that people can make money from! Similar to how you can go fishing and sell fish. Here are some ideas I have:
- Metal Detecting (beach)
Loot can include: yen coins (common/uncommon), bottle caps (common), jewelry (legendary), + more. Common items can be very cheap, but legendary items can be 5-10k each!
The player can hold right click while walking (maybe it can auto-slow you down) and you go through the sand until a chat msg "You can hear beeping!" and a way to dig it up. Maybe a separate hand shovel item or sifter?
- Gem Finding (bodies of water)
This can be sifted from bodies of water, such as the beach, lakes (like the one at the park and forest) or rivers (forest)
Loot can include: ruby, sapphire, tanzanite, gold, emerald, quartz, jasper, granite, + more
This can give players a purpose for their mountain rubies - sell them!
These can be sold at a similar price as fishing. Some rocks will be small (like gold) so it doesn't need to be too valuable.
The player can buy a sifting item, where they'll go up to a body of water and right click. A menu can come up and it can say "You place some dirt/sand inside" and you'll click a "shake!" button while the menu (like a double chest) shows sand and dirt whilst revealing some gem items. Afterwards, the player can collect their items into their inventory.
If you have more ideas, give them in comments :>
How will this benefit the server and community?:
- Money: More money making ways that doesn't involve applying to things on forums or discord. Can be nice for new players as well!
- Roleplay: More things to do and hobbies to pick up! Might as well make them functional and worthwhile. Can also encourage people to do things together and talk about it! Friendships <3
- Beach use: The beach has so much room that isn't being used to its full potential. There's plenty of room for people to find some lost metal.
- Ruby use: They're not worth much, and a lot of us has the item. Might as well take it to the gem buying NPC :)
- School: Science teachers and professors can teach about the type of rocks you can find sifting, and they can take students on a field trip to try it out! Cute little activity to bond the class and learn!
