hey everybody! i was just thinking of a number of things i think would make minecraft better. please tell me what you think. criticism is accepted and wanted.
ok. my first idea is a new item. you make it out of a stick in the center of crafting table. it is a spike. the spike can be put down, and when mummies run into it they get hurt.
2nd, the main idea, is the idea to be able to weld stuff together to make bigger stuff. you could make a thing which is dirt and spikes together to make a spiked barricade, and so on. my last idea is a npc-creator engine which allows you to make the npc's do certain stuff at certain times. the triggers could be things like if they see you, if they see mummies, if it is a certain time of day, if they are below blank health, and so on. that way you could make youreself a army!
but you would have to feed them and give them armour. the things you could make them do would be mine, cook, fight, or defend. you could perch them on a watchtower to watch for enemies, or put them in a mine with minecarts to mine stuff and then send it up the minecarts.
if you like my ideas, reply. if you dont like them, please tell me why.


also, the water system needs some work- it does not flow far enough. i think it should fill up alot more space


the combat needs some help too- I think that if you could make a way to make a pixel-to-pixel drawing thingamagig that helps you to make items it would be awesome
think about. a minecraft you can make items with...
so yeah. please reply and tell me youre thoughts.

The idea for the spike is

The idea for the spike is very interesting. It would be a great help for keeping out mobs (and killing them) that spawn near your buildings.
I also like the welding stuff together idea. I just very recently posted a topic on making a spaceship so the welding would open up many possibilities.

The NPC idea is pretty good too. I myself wouldn't use it, because to me it  delves a bit too far from the simplicity of minecraft. I would have to see it in action to really make up my mind. I think there is a mod out there for such a thing however:
MineColony
by lacozzini

- This mod gives you an ability to create and manage your own colony in Minecraft by adding 4 new, self-sufficient AI NPCs, each with his own profession (lumberjack, miner, delivery man, and farmer), special abilities, and functions.
