We Made a Mod to Protect You from Aggressive Players

[@Ryann9]

I see three problems: 1. You could still kill people with stuff such as lava buckets or traps. 2. It's way easier to steal, grief, etc. since you can't be hurt by other players in defense mode. 3. Theoretically, a highly skilled person could strategically turn on and off defense mode to simultaneously attack and prevent damage in pvp.

[@MortimerKerman]

​@@Ryann9 I thought about this one during development but we worked to make it the hardest possible :P

[@knorke3549]

I feel like the easiest way to stop this would be a "punishment timer" after manually toggling off defense before you can toggle it on again

[@sagemagicWow]

It would be cool if there was an option you could set a cooldown to when you can turn on defence, so you can’t just refresh/turn it back on as soon as it’s finished! I think that could be a cool feature?

[@dashplays572]

@sagemagicWow That is intentional design. @KnarfyToo and @MortimerKerman Maybe that could be an operator feature, where the OP sets the timer in chat (maybe individual timers) or in server settings and *BAM!* everyone has a timer now.

[@jimirobertson4029]

Not sure if someone else has said this but just my two cents, maybe it would be cool to have a way to set certain zones that change the rules depending on what zone you're in? For example someone has a server that has an arena in it, and if that arena is set as a "zone" for pvp, the defence system is completely disabled for anyone inside so you can't cheese your way through a fight. On the other hand if that arena has an area for spectators to watch the fights, the defence system is permanently enabled for any player inside so they can't be beating each other up or interfere with the fight, including making it harder for cheaters to try and use sneaky traps to help their arena buddies inside. Maybe that's already addressed idk, just wanted to pitch in.

[@aethersword7823]

I saw your comments about the challenge command, I was thinking of ways you can tune it: - Allow challenging one person or a team, teams already exist in vanilla minecraft so that can be implemented. - Challenge ends either after a set timer or after one side loses. - During a challenge, both parties are immune to non participants but aren't immune against eachother.

[@Chipymage]

one idea that may be hard to implement is allowing for separate timer's for players, this would allow a lot of things! such as a reputation system where players known for getting into combat have shorter timers, or safe zones where any player inside has a much longer timer!

[@crab4403]

@@Chipymage That sounds cool!

[@beefox__]

i'd love to see a gamerule to allow interactions like punching but negate the damage, so for example you can still punch people into a pit but they won't take damage from it?

[@MCCamels]

Well, I suppose you could set the timer to something stupidly high then only turn it off when both partys WANT to pvp. Hm, how epic!

[@Knarfy]

We do hope to put together a challenge system where players can use /challenge and keep defense off until one player dies, or they're far enough away from each other. Could be a fun addition!

Good idea. Though if you haven't thought about them, players may be able to use lava buckets; harming pots, firework explosions, firework crossbow splash damage, tnt cart, end crystals, beds in nether/end, dispensers, tnt lit by redstone or fire spread, drowning damage, block suffocating

[@derbguy]

another good idea would be to add a exact timer in the pause menu and add a minuites timer next to defense icon in gameplay so you can see how long you have for defense

[@Blurple]

Love this mod! Concerns I have are protected players stealing pvp drops, and invisible players cannot be hit/killed. I can see this mod more fitting for a non-PvP server to introduce some friendly dueling, so it will be cool to also have a toggle PvP mode instead of only toggle defense.

This is actually really useful! A question I have, if there were to be a person that would be spamming the spawn kill command with no cooldown, would there be a feature for this to automatically turn on against it or is that not an option?

[@hexretro8112]

I would like to see a raid totem or illegality system in place. Illegality would secure a chest or other private property that where opening it disables protection to allow people to chase that player. The raid totem making that player being able to be attacked by anybody or attack anyone with the protector symbol for a limited amount of time, there would a sound warning (like that one of a wither spawning, or a raid triggering) upon use and constant blood or other particles on that player. Perhaps the illegality system could just be a raid totem in a dispenser within applying the effect within a short range.

[@GameJam230]

One possible idea for a future feature would be to make a gamerule that disables the ability to refresh defence instantly. I'd say you could make it work like so; Let's say the timer is 20 minutes, and you use it for 5 minutes and then disable it. Your defence timer is now at 15 minutes and begins recharging back to the max while it is deactivated. If you leave it for 1 minute and turn it on again, you're at 16 minutes left and start draining the new timer from that point. If it reaches 0, it just deactivates automatically and you have to wait for it to charge to use it at all. I would also recommend making it so it has to be at a minimum time to activate it again (perhaps 1 minute), so you can't just let it run down to 0 and then continuously reactivate it every time it runs out. Alternatively, just set a 1 minute (or configurable time) cooldown between every deactivation and reactivation. Of course, this idea of maintaining the remaining time should be deactivated by default, since it's largely intended for good faith use among people willing to respect the system, but having the ability to use it for temporary and limited peace of mind in a more combat-oriented server would be a good idea too. Another useful feature would be to be able to set the defense timer to infinite (if not already possible), AND to set the default state of defense mode, since some servers may have PVP deactivated by default, but allow people to enter a PVP mode. Even ones like Wynncraft have features in the late-game like this where you can enable PVP and have players hunt you. Speaking of which- a "hunted" mode could be fun. When you have it enabled, players can acquire a bounty for you, and successfully killing you may give some reward or something. Or, perhaps it just allows them to track you with a compass, so it's for people who want a hardcore PVP experience. This could mean that instead of a two-state switch, it's more like a three-state slider for what intensity of a PVP experience you want, hunted, normal, and defense. Again, multiple of these being togglable

[@TrainOfImagination]

Glad to see that my friends still won't be safe from my dripstone shotgun. Also, I wonder if it works against TNT placed by dispensers placed by and activated by enemy players.

[@dinky1291]

So what happens when you go to someone's base, get caught so they try and kill you but then you toggle defence, loot everything and walk away

[@derbguy]

a base feature basicly you can mark your base and if a another player enters it enable a mode they cant toggle where they cant open chest and enables protection this could also work with the teams feature i sugested where each team member can have custom base permisions by other players in the team so a team could have two bases but its like a friend group where they can still work togeter and fight this feature can also be dissabled by server ownders or ops with a command like /gamerule baseprotection true/false or a /base command that can enable or dissable each feature of bases or bases entirely and mayby a base marker

[@natanmaia3575]

Thats really nice. The idea of making a mod is to go beyond what vanilla Teams can do witth friendly fire off right? Otherwise it can very much be a datapack.

[@Laughing_Dragon]

should make a Team mode for anti-friendly fire, so you can fight some people, but not others, maybe having the same defense icon as someone else, makes it so you can't attack eachother, but maybe you can attack a normal or any other shield one, again, for a team mode.

[@Trevorus1]

Make it take like 20 seconds to activate defense and if you were damaged by a player in that time it will block you from using defense for maybe 2-5 minutes, also make it take 5 seconds to deactivate defense along with showing a timer above the players head trying to activate or deactivate it. Edit: As their own settings, no need to have them activated by default
