Craft saplings to sticks

26 posts in this topic

Simple suggestion: Saplings being craftable to sticks.

This Idea came to me when I realized how many saplings I collect from keeping my land cleared and my general lack of sticks.

You can easily convert saplings into sticks by planting them. Then when they grow, you harvest them for sticks. ;).

..... Silly!

I am not sure we need more recipes for sticks... I have enough sticks as it is(just get a willow farm. YOU HAVE ALL THE STICKS YOU EVER NEED.)

I'm just wanting something to do with saplings that I'll never use.

Also, this would allow a minor form of griefing: going to someone's base and converting saplings to sticks to destroy them. More annoying unless there are repeated attacks that prevent new trees from ever being planted.

How can a sapling become a stick....it's to small... maybe toothpicks could be made from them :-)

I use them as bonsai tree decorations :-)

saplings can make excellent bows. saying that in support of the idea. however, considering the ease it is to get sticks from any tree, I dont see the NEED for this feature beyond a artistic touch.

So a five meter tall tree is considered a sapling?

:| So, you yourself admit your suggestion allows griefing. You see why that is a problem?

No? Let me explain you with an example... A lot of us wanted to have siege weapons (NO, I'M NEVER LETTING THAT GO). There was a suggestion for them, and it was rejected. Why? 'cause anything useable for grief is rarely accepted.

JAG, then how come a pickaxe is allowed? ;) there has to be a balance between griefing and gameplay. although this idea brings no addition, besides i stick to my thoughts that there should be a seperate gamemode for PvP with a lot more focus on siege weaponry and all that (yea, not letting it go either ;)

anything that allows mass greifing, such as seige weapons should have a server config to toggle it off. Let ssp users go crazy, but our war server need to be war!

This is exactly what I think, if you don't want to allow griefing remove the very structure of Minecraft and TFC and call it good. if you can build and destroy anything so can someone else, but I consider the gains worth more than any losses to have a more full world.

But the thing is, we do really need a way to make sticks out of saplings, when you can already make them out of logs by using a hammer? :

This was just something that I thought of as I was emptying my inventory, and immediately posted. I only realized of that later.

However, ECC does bring up a good point about making bows. Maybe saplings could be crafted into different sticks that make bows of different durability and power.

we really should not be getting 'sticks' from a damn tree. we should be getting larger parts that we work for our tools. some trees should provide parts we CAN use, others we CANT. willow is useless for a tool handle for example

yeah i agree with Wolfyface up there, saplings are too thin and flexible to be used as a stick, ebven if you strip the leaves off of it, it just wouldnt be strong enough, because thinking about it, a "stick" in minecraft, seince you are able to use one as a handle for tools, should be at least a metre long

this is dumb

Ladies and gentlemen... I give you the quote of the day! Thank you for the invaluable input that you have no doubt taken your time to process into a thought provoking, and meaningful 3 word sentence!

Why is it dumb, silly.

Is it just me or are most of your posts revolving around how people are wrong and you are right... both on these forums and on the minecraft forums?

Dude just thinks sapling bows rock. For Pete's sake!

I tell you what's dumb.

Posting "this is dumb" on a thread you have made absolutely no meaningful contribution to.

I need a drink.

I dont even drink and i need one!

:P

....sticks come from trees... and i think the Littles used sapling bows. ;)

Just to clarify on subject of griefing, you can't tell if thing that you added is not going to be used for griefing. Because it will. Regular piston, dozen of planks and a single lever is very good for griefing, you can't even imagine. As are signs. As is two water buckets, even when they are finite. I'm not even going to say anything about lava buckets and pickaxes/axes.

No, Menoch, Esteban isn't a bad person, seriously. Read my signature (Ignore the first line that says to not read :) ) He is helpful most of the times. Really. Also I dont think that his posts are bad. It's only his idea.
