Meepcraft Advancements

As has been said by staff many times, they do plan to update the server to 1.12 when plugins are up to date. One of the features of 1.12 is the removal of the vanilla achievement system. Instead, we now have an entirely new system called "Advancements."

Essentially, this was designed to allow lawmakers to create their own achievements, but I see it being quite useful to create a system of Meepcraft Advancements. Essentially, these would be ordinary tasks to which can be customized to an incredible degree. The source code is already built into Minecraft, and all techs would have to do is create a small plugin that stores the custom ones. The system already allows for items to be rewarded, as well. So, it will be similar to the achievements plugin already added, but with more accessibility and purpose. For example, any and all players can view the server advancements directly from the pause menu, after selecting advancements.

By having custom advancements, you can program in special tasks that can only be completed once. One that I thought of already was awarding a gold block upon getting a vote key. Obviously, the staff team would have the ultimate say in what advancements are included, but I believe it would be a great way to incorporate new and old players into the Towny world by having all of the advancements awarded there.

Thanks for reading!

 

I believe this would be a nice touch, but before this can happen, all the other plugins must be updated to 1.12. After that happens though, this would be great. +1 (when plugins are updated)

 

If this happens, it would actually be one of the coolest things on meep. I have not yet heard of a server with their own advancements, or heard of any with plans. If meep is one of the first servers to do, it could possibly attract more players. It would be a new experience I think.

This is so cool! +1

 

I think this is a perfect update for the server with 1.12. Advancements/achievements are meant to reward the player for going above and beyond in the game, and the server would be perfect for that!

 

Accepted! We'll discuss this more following the server updating.
