Click here to go to the suggestions sheet.
This is a full list of all RoF suggestions, and their status. I’d recommend checking this list before posting an idea, as it might just already have been posted! I’m not sure if I’m actually going to be updating this, but meh. We’ll see I guess. Also, this thread isn't like official or anything. Basically, I just got bored.
Commonly thought-of suggestions
Deathrun (a deathrun-like gamemode has been suggested 3 times now), cold water, creatures, super cookies, new gamemodes pretty much anything Classic Lava-related.
I wouldn’t suggest suggesting any of the ideas listed above unless you’ve really worked it out and unless you think it’s innovative.
[accordion]{slide=Liked/Accepted/Approved/Added suggestions}Pausing timer. Status: Has been implemented, and Operator+ can now freeze the timer if they think it is necessary.
Suggestion subforum. Status: Added to the forums, obviously.
Timers on scoreboard. Status: Approved by Dirtcake. Was added to the server on January 2, 2014.
Randomized chests. Status: Dirtcake said he liked it. Has not been added however, and I’m unsure if there are any plans of it getting added at all.
Announcement when a player gets x amount of KoTL wins. Status: Although the main idea of the thread was declined, Dirtcake approved of the “<Player> has won KoTL for the xth time!” idea.5 months later, however, it has not yet been added. It's actually been added. Whoops.
Nether quartz in shops. Status: Nether quartz was available in the Master Temple when the new lobby was revealed.
Make mobs unable to spawnkill people. Status: Was met with a huge amount of “yes”-votes. Dirtcake made it so “Players will be invincible for 10 seconds upon joining the map in the next update later this week. Attacking a mob will immediately cancel that invincibility, but moving won't”.
Add map authors to /lsinfo. Status: Got added pretty quickly.
More time-related options for mapmakers. Status: A new map submission format will be created soon.
IRC-Related commands. Status: Liked by Ronaldo.
Get better rewards for winning KoTL when there’s more pople online. Status:Kind-of approved. Ronaldo's response: "I'm going to be addressing about the status of KoTL and why it's lacking popularity soon, so quite possibly this suggestion could be mentioned somewhere in there soon."
Different rewards for different moods. Status: Approved.
Ironman mode. Status: Ronaldo will try to start working on it as soon as possible.
Super cookies. Status: Will be implemented.
A radio command. Status: Will be implemented.
Red sand turns into red glass when touched by lava. Status: Approved.{/slide}{slide=Declined/Denied/Dead suggestions}Confused Mood. Description: Blocks that would normally melt on calm mood are the only safe blocks. Status: Dead. Not likely to get implemented (soon).
Better storage. Description: “have another big room filled with double chests where you could buy various.” Status: Declined because Ogarci thought it was a silly idea.
Re-spawn noise. Description: “when the round is over, maybe there is a little noise when you respawn.” Status: Declined by Dirtcake because “when players go back to the lobby after a round ends the players running makes large amounts of sound, I notice it easily. Also from what I have seen players that go afk generally have their sound off.”
Deathrun. (was suggested a second time as well) Description: Bring back the old Classic Lava gamemode “Deathrun”. Status: Declined, as the staff wants to improve the current gameplay instead of adding another style of gameplay at all.
Player to player teleports. Description: Pay some cookies to be able to teleport to another player. Status: Dirtcake told us he’s against it, so the chance of it getting adding is pretty much zero.
Trusted rank. Status: Declined as it is not needed.
Players can use an item to remove lava around them and become a walking sponge. Status: Denied, as it wouldn’t work very well.
Cold water. Description: Water on maps would give a poison/wither effect. Status: Denied.
Multiple spawns in one map. Status: Denied due to it only causing problems.
Change Glacier’s biome. Status: Denied.
Icy water. Description: Certain rounds will have water instead of lava and could be an easy but fun building round. Status: Denied by Ronaldo because "It'll cause too much problems with the server and the maps + It'll throw off new players from what is supposed to be "lava survival"."
In-game pets. Status: Denied by Ronaldo because "I don't really like this idea. It'll create too much confusion and chaos. Going to deny this."
A /lick command. Status: Denied by Ronaldo because he felt like there was no point to it.
Improved sponge breaking. Description: A message is broadcasted when a sponge is broken by a normal player. Status: Denied by Ronaldo because it might cause a lot of confusion and frustration between players.
Instant-death lava. Status: Not really liked by the community, and declined by Ronaldo.
Rounds are 30 minutes long. Status: Declined.
/guide command. (originally autofill suggestion) Status: Denied.
One more storage chest. Status: Denied for now.
Throw-back weekend. Status: Very unlikely to get added.
Use water potions to put out fire. Status: Denied.
Lava boats. Status: Denied due to it being silly.
Shops in maps. Status: Denied.
Custom and randomized drops. Status: Denied.
More air gets you more cookies. Status: Denied.
Also a ridiculously overpowered and bad idea I once suggested with cells ‘n stuff which promptly got deleted because it was that horrible.
Spectator mode. Status: Denied for now.
Change all safe blocks. Status: Denied for now.
Blocks melt based on time and surface area (gamemode). Status: Denied.
Better/more /t commands. Status: Pretty much denied. Unlikely to get added due to the scoreboard feature.{/slide}
{slide=Pending suggestions}Creatures. Status: Put into consideration.
Panic rounds. Status: Put into consideration.
Custom login/logout messages. Status: Put into consideration.
Lottery. Status: Still a pretty new suggestion, but has not yet received an official response.
Community chests. Status: Still a pretty new suggestion, but has not yet received an official response.
{/slide}
{slide=Suggestions with another status}Building blocks getting sold in the Sanctum. Status: Not added, but: “We actually have plans for grandmasters, whether it is in the form of a shop or not. You'll have to wait and see” (around 5 months ago)
Disable emeralds in KoTL. Status: This might have been added. I don’t remember and I’m not really active anymore so I can’t check. If anyone else could, typls <3
Community-voted rotation. Status: A user is free to create a google doc or similar about this.{/slide}{slide=Community suggestions}RoF Resourcepack. Status: I don’t think anyone’s actually made one. I might make two separate ones, one removing pumpkinblur & one removing the lava sounds, but I dunno.{/slide}[/accordion]
