Idea Compass Range

That sounds like a cool idea. I can add to your idea too. How about that the night and day cycle doesn't just circle randomly anymore, but it goes on like a normal minecraft day and night. When sunset approaches, the compass's affects will gradually start wearing out. This means that the range will keep decreasing until the morning arrives. When the morning does arrive, the compass will instantly be restored to its max range.

 

I've always hated compasses. They're not hard to get, and it is like player radar. If someone finds you on their compass, all they have to do is run straight in the opposite direction and they're usually safe. Or they'll hunt you down. They make stealth completely impossible.

I think instead, compasses should have an on/off function. If it's off, it just points north, like a regular compass. If it's on, and set to find a player (friend or enemy) it will point to the nearest player, with infinite range, but only if that player also has a compass that is also on. A compass would be on if it's searching for enemies, players, or towns. So it would no longer a player detector, but a compass detector. How could a compass track people anyway? Is everyone implanted with a chip?

 

I love this idea. I think it would make warsZ more challenging and fun

 

I would love this idea, because I hate it when players come outa nowhere and tries to kill you

 

Great idea, but you spelled his name wrong: *nicolecacola* xD

 

Isn't it nicolecolado???

 

nicolecola* I'm pretty sure

 

GreenPeas I love the idea. If this becomes true I wonder what it would be like and how difficult it would be.
Good Luck on this idea.

 

A great idea in my opinion. Makes the night a time where death is more prominent. People would try to take safety in buildings as no one would wander out in plane sight outside.
1+ from me C:

 

I dont really care what it is, no compasess, reduced range at night, or some kinda camouflage armor to block being tracked (I thought I had read that somewhere but now I can't find it?); I think compasses should be nerfed. They really ruin the necessity of stealth.

 

Oh ya thats the post I saw, except they only talk about camouflage blocking zombie detection. It doesnt even have to be good armor; it could have 0 resistance to keep it balanced. I just think there should be something that can let you sneak around all stealth-mode like.

 

This idea is great, this would help new players in my opinion a lot, they could stay alive a lot longer and enjoy there gear.

 

Im in for this. With compas at short range, I can finaly sneak up on full d guys who have their bakcs turned when they loot at night.

 

A really good idea.

 

Too bad every donator can do /day
