    Similar to my " bodies remaining " idea, this idea features blood ( or red wool ) to drip from a player if the player is shot. If a player is shot on a certain part of his / her body, that body section would start oozing the red wool. However, this doesn't affect the gameplay or health of that player. The next thing is blood puddles surrounding a dead player. If a player dies, the location of where he / she died will create a blood puddle of red wool ( would be a lot better with the dead bodies idea I posted ).

    Now for the lag issues, the amount of blood should be limited to prevent lag issues during the game. Kinda like a certain amount of red wool blocks on the map is 256 blocks. It's up to the coders of Mc-war to decide what is done if this idea is accepted.

    What do you all think?

    Edit- Ok so it could be trails of redstone dust or even red wool carpet. Anything the staff sees that could be the best for everyone.

    I like this, although maybe it would be better for them to leave a trail of redstone dust, which can be configured in the mc-war resource pack to look like blood?

    I like it, maybe make it re-textured redstone?

    Lol, it's just that, red wool would take up a whole block and redstone would be the same purpose and you would still be able to see the block.

    I don't think the idea of blood dripping from the body seems very appealing especially if someone is shooting a minigun or skullcrusher at you

    Like I said, certain amount of blood dripping out and you would most likely die if someone used any of the 2 weapons you mentioned against you.

    This idea might work better with warZ in my opinion.

    Would work more for mc-warz so you could track down people and follow their trail of blood

    I'd rather see a redstone trail to be honest. When you are shot, the texture of blood coming out is redstone breaking. Redstone makes it looks like an accurate trail of blood and is hard to exploit with. Also wool lag as you have to replace every block with a full block.

    Haven't you noticed that when you get shot on war there are red particles?

    I am honestly not a fan of this idea. Seems a little redundant, considering this:
    And the fact that it will just be in the way. It's just my opinion, but it seems a little unneeded/unwanted.

    It seems to me like a laggy pointless aesthetic. There are already redstone particles like below...
    And adding more particles and item drops would just lag, and probably not look too good anyways.

    Meh I think the red particles that come out of a player when you shoot them is enough and just leave that the way it is. But I like this for warz

    I think that map would actually work with war. This seems more like a warZ thing to me.

    I agree, and lag issues would be a problem
