Suggestion Add Painting because sprooky said so

[doulk]

Sparky once said for me to go outside and make a nice painting because he was not agreeing to the fact that we should add magical fake drugs to Loka.

I say that adding a painting mechanic to Loka would be a great creative outlet for the infinitely bored players.

Make it so you can sell painting also

Also be able to hang them up and stuff.

Also add painting canvases and stands for it. With paint brushes those are cool too.

I'd assume they would take use of the map on item frame mechanic

Thank you for coming to my ted talk

Was going to say a similar type of thing can be done with map art (for those who don’t know - building a 2d image facing the sky and making a map of it, which can be used in item frames and such), but of course, on Loka, map art can only be done by either repeatedly destroying map art builds or making your Town look awful. Reminds me of something Mag mentioned here, which is as follows:

“I know many people take great pride in their town and don't trust those who are sub-par builders to create things in town. It's almost as if we need some kind of instanced area for individual player housing or islands that towns could claim and build on. Would be good to hear if others have ideas about this.”

While I don’t feel that painting is necessarily very Loka-ish, map art is a feature of vanilla gameplay that is very much limited on Loka, so it would be cool to have a better way to do it than messing up your Town’s aesthetic with massive map art builds.

Back to my original idea... which never got a response to.

Mindblaster007:
“I was thinking about this a bit and I think I found a solution. What if each town had access to a “portal”, like the kind you use to warp around your town with. This portal would teleport a town member to a town-shared “world”. Here the town members can play with Redstone, build new builds, and much more. This would allow the “Builders” to build something, show it to the Owner(s) of their town, and if the Owner(s) like it they can allow the member to build it in the town. Each “world” would allow a player to use GMC and World Edit to build with and no items would be allowed to go in and out of the portals.”

I need to clarify that there would be limitations in this “Town Test World”. For example, border size, redstone limitations, and no portals will be buildable.
