 Sorry it's probably a shitty suggestion but I want everyone to realize that we're ruining the earth.. [[User:NJP xo|NJP xo]] ([[User talk:NJP xo|talk]]) 03:46, 15 May 2016 (MDT)
 <li>I think this is a good idea to have in the game --[[User:Funkmj|Funkmj]] ([[User talk:Funkmj|talk]]) 09:49, 17 May 2016 (MDT)
+* An interesting idea, but as the animals spawn based on environment and plants can be restored from seeds purchased at the Trade Portal, "extinction" is a non-permanent state. Including this is more political than educational. (I'm not saying it's good or bad, just that it doesn't fit the general tone of the game.) --[[User:McClaw|McClaw]] ([[User talk:McClaw|talk]]) 11:08, 26 November 2017 (MST)

 A way to rain in the blockheads would be great as well.  Just some way to keep them from ending up far away.  Maybe an item crafted in sets of four to mark the corners of boundaries.  This would keep lumberjacks from getting in the gardens and the miners from tearing up bases, like an electric fence for dogs.

+== Underground bases ==
+I like to have self contained bases and sometimes they end up underground.  It would be great if there was a way to grow trees underground allowing access to wood, sticks, and food without the risk of revealing the location of my base to others.  I know kelp can be grown below its normal depth with proper light sources but I have yet to grow a tree underground.[[User:Shootingstar749|Shootingstar749]] ([[User talk:Shootingstar749|talk]]) 20:35, 18 June 2016 (MDT)
+*I actually think this is possible (I did it once on a PVP server and it paid off), you need to make the place where trees are bright and have a high roof, compost also helps. [[User:Royal521|Royal521]] ([[User talk:Royal521|talk]]) 08:15, 20 October 2016 (MDT)
+* It's definitely possible; I've grown trees underground myself several times, particularly coffee cherry trees. You need plenty of open space and artificial light (steel lanterns work better, and they'll move themselves from back wall to leaves automatically), and compost helps. Don't be surprised if they're not as big as they can be in the right environment on the surface, though. --[[User:McClaw|McClaw]] ([[User talk:McClaw|talk]]) 11:12, 26 November 2017 (MST)
+== Deep Water Adventures ==
+The land has its caves, the skies have their islands, but what about the deep bodies of water?
+So first the equipment:
+* Bronze ingots on the Armor Bench to make '''Bronze Boots'''. When these are worn, a blockhead doesn't float and can't swim -- they just sink to the bottom and walk (or climb) there. They may also sink on their own if dropped.
+* Steel ingots and Kelp (and maybe other stuff) to make a '''Breathing Pack'''. This replaces any coat or shirt, much like a jetpack, and like a jetpack it's "fueled" -- but to supply air to the wearing blockhead. It can be recharged (with kelp) while being worn. But you have to also wear...
+* Bronze ingots, Glass, and a Steel lantern to make a '''Diving Helmet'''. Worn with a Breathing Pack, it provides the wearing blockhead with what amounts to a portable block of air, as well as portable illumination. Worn ''without'' a Breathing Pack, the blockhead still gets the portable light but they immediately begin running down their air bar. (And thus may be used for temporary light in a dark place.)
+* Bronze ingot and a stick to make a '''Harpoon'''. It's like an improved flint spear, but only when used against water targets (otherwise it's just like a more durable flint spear). Fish are killed in a single blow, sharks at an improved rate.
+Now for what might be found:
+* '''Coral''' is a shallow-water growth that only anchors on stone. It grows no more than three deep, but if it comes in contact with a passing boat it will drop the boat and dump the riding blockhead in the water. They can be harvested (with a pickax) as crushed limestone.
+* '''Sea Cucumbers''' aren't actually plants, but the version here acts like one. Or maybe they're tube worms. Anyway, they only grow in deep water away from the sun and no more than two blocks tall. I don't know if they can be of any use except to spawn...
+* The '''coelacanth''' is a new deep-sea fish. It doesn't like going up to levels where sunlight penetrates, but doesn't mind lanterns or artificial light. Spawned fish-sized near sea cucumbers, they'll grow one stage larger. Like fish, they'll drop raw fish when killed. With enough of them around, they'll spawn sharks and maybe...
+* '''Squid''' aren't big, but they're mean. They don't just bite and run like a shark, they'll latch on and keep biting. They'll run if attacked, though (even if they don't spray "ink"), and drop off if taken out of the water. They like to hover around...
+* Golden chests. Yep, sunken treasure. Probably richer than average to attract divers.

+if you add a shipwreck to the game it be super cool you can find a shipwreck at the bottom a body water --[[User:Funkmj|Funkmj]] ([[User talk:Funkmj|talk]]) 10:04, 22 August 2016 (MDT)
+* I believe this would be the only structure spawned in the game if it's included. --[[User:McClaw|McClaw]] ([[User talk:McClaw|talk]]) 11:17, 26 November 2017 (MST)
+==Decreasing Trade Portal Lag==
+By removing the portal-blockhead item animations, this can greatly decrease the serious server lag and crashes that come from trade portals. Of course, that won't do everything needed, but it will make using them a lot easier when mass buying things like food or building blocks.

+== Copying worlds between devices (and how to do it) ==
+With multiplayer, we can use one device to play in a world stored on another. But unless you completely copy (usually through restoring a backup) the contents of one device to another, you can't transfer worlds. It seems to me that the option could be included. Here's how I see it working.
+*The source device hosts the selected single-player world for multiplayer on the local network. (This would encourage the player(s) to be in direct communication with each other and agree to the copy.)
+*The receiving device connects to that world and has the option to join as a player or copy the world in.
+*By asking to copy, the selected world is duplicated to the receiving device as a single-player world. Other than not copying any multiplayer information, the only change would be insuring the receiving player is the owner / admin of that world.
+This process could be used to share a world (for non-multiplayer competition, for example) or to transfer worlds from older devices to newer ones.
