Honestly it'd be nice if people added their own suggestions about implementation, new/old ideas that I missed, etc. Any takers?

Music

If you want a rainy area, just put some rain sounds.

If you want some kind of scary area, just put some scary sounds.

Everyone will hear. Just select a music to play and it will play in the environment.


- A more adjustable daycycle.

I'd like there to be a Moon

I would like a realistic sun cycle. One that doesn't only go above your head.

Bump maybe?

Also I think environment sounds would be a good idea only if sound implementation in BL was expanded, as it is now loops can't be very long and could potentially get old fast.

It'd also be nice if those who voted "nay/on the fence" explained their reasoning.

To emulate latitudes, you mean? That would be great. I believe Kalphiter actually figured out the calculations for this, but couldn't get the sun's position to update properly.

Locking the day cycle to the server's time would be pretty cool.


This is always relevant.

These ideas are all good, they'll hopefully make the game more interesting and better, but I agree with Sleven.
All we can do is want.
