I just had a nice idea for a "Baseball" mod for servers and people who like sports.
I really only see a need for 3 separate components: A Baseball GUI (Not downloaded off servers but obviously needed to play the game), a baseball bat, and some sort of baseball gun.
The Baseball GUI serves as a starting point for both pitching and batting: When you're batting, you click the batting button from the main menu, stand facing the pitcher but not actually infront directly infront of him, and move your mouse cursor over something like a track pad on a laptop to swing the bat: The smoother you move your cursor over it the more power goes into your swing when you actually "swing" the bat (You move your cursor off the trackpad) wheras moving it fast makes you swing faster but not as hard, like for bunts, or something. I suppose if you aim alittle bit upward before taking your batting position and opening the GUI you'd swing at a different angle and hit the ball differently. Or, that is to say, diagonally. Wheras when you're pitching, you click the pitching button from the main baseball GUI menu and you're equipped with a big gun similar to Nintendo's batting machine that fires baseballs (small sized vehicles, slightly smaller than a weighted cube) straight forward. I suppose you can press a button in a submenu to change what kind of shot you wanna try (For instance pressing the screwball button would, indeed, fire a screwball)
I thought it'd be an interesting idea to try to make on Blockland. If you go at it, thanks!
