If people can just crash their games to reset the world can we have a reset world button in case you like die and wipe early to the pt it would be easier to reset?

I feel like you could abuse this to like use resources multiple times to get goals for example you kill golem do a goal and reset to kill golem again and do a different goal

It could just have a time penalty associated with it like having to wait 10s after reset, or else you might as well just crash your game and do it anyway if it is advantageous to do that
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
The thing that's stopping ppl from crashing their games is having to relaunch it
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago(edited)
so if reset has a time u have to wait after doing it it's basically the same thing

For reference the reason I'm suggesting this is because in a match both me & my opponent fell in lava and full wiped but right after they did they disconnected and came back and got acquire hardware from the ship again and just had full iron while I was just farming out a set of stone tools. I don't think crashing your game should give you an advantage.
Semanari

And I understand why it does that
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
I'm just suggesting adding a reset button so you don't have to crash your game to take advantage of a reset

hard thing to balance
Bompkin
Bompkin6 days ago
preferably neither is possible
Bompkin
Bompkin6 days ago
but u also dont want ppl to instalose if their wifi goes out for a sec or if their games crashes randomly
Bompkin
Bompkin6 days ago
so its a hard fix
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
Ya the thing is tho like
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
Crashing for advantage will happen either way if it resets ur world or if it rolls u back
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
I just don't ever want the best thing I can do in a situation be intentionally crash my game to reset the world
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
So there should just be a reset world button
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
Like
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
I crash my game now I have food and iron and lava on surface to just remake my portal and go back to nether in 30s vs the like 2 mins I had to mine for tools and not have iron and struggle
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
Only way to truly prevent it is to make it so ppl auto lose when they crash idk
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
I'd be down for that too
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
They fixed reconnect so like
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
The only way the world actually gets reset is from a crash

how about more frequent autosave so intentionally crashing isn't an advantage
justin

resetting world doesn't make much sense to me for this format

Personally I agree with a reset world button, incase u did in lava for example, cos crashing the game is not intended ino

i like reset world prior to 3 minutes
SurCats
SurCats6 days ago
eh actually
SurCats
SurCats6 days ago
nvm i dont like it at all

reset world is bad
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
for reasons stated above
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
so everyone should just crash their game to reset the world then ya?
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
like I do want something to counter that if not this
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
it's a genuine problem
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
that the best thing for me to do in that situation is crash my game to reset the seed
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
well i think that behavior just shouldnt exist at all either
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
yeah
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
ideally if you crash your game it just rolls you back to your previous position

DriftSythe
DriftSythe6 days ago
no one is saying it’s good that you can do that
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
i dont think there should be a reset button added because you can crash right now
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
the crash to reset problem should just get fixed
3
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
that lets people roll back deaths
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
which is why crash resets you
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
and idk the solution to that really
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
well no if the game would just autosave then it wouldnt
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
and if someone finds a way to get around that id imagine its really obvious to tell if someones doing that maliciously vs their internet going out / game genuinely crashing
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
especially if there will be a replay system in the future / people stream their games, its very easy to detect
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
ya ig it'd have to be an anticheat measure
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
the solution to fix the problem shouldnt be to add another way to cause the problem
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
it should just be to fix having crashing your game give any possible benefit / positive rollback
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
which is definitely a hard thing to fix. but they should just work on that (and i think theyre already aware) and then thats all that needs to be done
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
I just didn't think that was on the table due to like core mc stuff
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
Cause like
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
crashing your game rolling u back is just a mc save thing
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
And idk what you would have to do to fix that
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
your game can save every second instead of every 5 minutes
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
or it can be saved on the server to save on personal computing power if someone has a slow pc
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
theres definitely fixes that can be implemented
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
most vanilla game crashes in new versions already autosave the player
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
i think you have to task manager / force close in another aggressive way to actually get any sort of save rollback
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
which is unfortunately like
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
the easiest way to do it which is kinda the problem 😭
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
but ya
Semanari
SemanariOP6 days ago
I just wanted something if not a reset button and I agree that if measures can be taken to stop crash rollback that would be way better
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
yes its very unintended behavior for the health of the gamemode, resource management is very important
Feinberg
Feinberg6 days ago
it will hopefully be fixed in the future
