Add a 5 Second Warning Ground Item Removing

So ground removing helps remove any items left on the ground across the server, and to help erase the items on the floor. But the only issue that I find with this, is that there is only 60 seconds and 20 seconds till ground removal. This is something that many people don't seem to know when the 20 seconds is up, mistaken and end up losing some valuable items when they were passing it to a friend or accidently pressing q on their keyboard. With this 5 second warning would give the person enough time to stop and wait the reasonable period before resuming back to their job of clearing or mining, without losing any item they wanted or have on them. This is something that really needs to be looked into and to have some action for a final warning to ground removing. As always, this doesn't have to be what is said, but something similar to this. What do you think?

 

You can tell when the 20 seconds is up, so you wait till it says __ entities removed. -1

 

It'll be annoying to have the chat bot spam, but we should change the 20 second warning to 10 second warning, so people know to get their butts up and pick their treasures. Also it's called clear lag, as it reduces eggplant.

 

I hate clearlag and it needs more warnings and for those who says it's spam, IT'T THREE WARNINGS!!!! Deal with it. +1

 

I think the best solution is this: Any items older than 20 seconds are removed at clear lag. Minecraft already tracks the age of items, so the plugin would just kill all entities that are older than 400 ticks (20 seconds). Any items dropped within the 20 second warning would be safe, but any before that would be destroyed.

 

See the problem with this is it says it "after" it occurs, not before. So when you accidentally press q like I mentioned, and that pops up, say bye bye to that item you mispressed. Also, 20 seconds are quite a long period to wait for when you don't want to waste the use of items, etc.

 

Won't that cause more lag?

Don't get me wrong, but I LOVE irony.

 

Is ClearLag really that complicated of a program?

 

Just make the final warning 10 seconds rather than 20 seconds. Some people can't count past 12. Cmon.
