How to: Claim a mystery box! [WIP]
« on: August 30, 2019, 06:58:34 PM »
Mystery Box System

Mystery boxes are a small little recent edition that have just been added to the server. Players will be given mystery boxes at random as they play on the server. When you receive a mystery box you will receive a message in your chat "You found a mystery box!".

These can be taken to the world spawn village (/spawn) and opened at the blue diamond block for an item. Each mystery box has a rating from 1 star to 5 star, the higher the rating the more chance you will have at unlocking a rare collectable.







Collectables include:

Hats - Most common of all the drops, and make up the majority of items, can be equipped on the players head as a cosmetic item.

Animated hats - Each of these hats will display a series of animations when equipped.

Particle Effects - These display effects above or around your character

Suits - These are collected as a set. Once you have obtained all pieces for a set you will then be able to use the special effect or ability associated with this set. This can be something cosmetic like a disco suit that flashes different colors when it is equipped to something more functional like a frog suit that allows you to jump higher.

Gadgets - These are miscellaneous items that can be placed down in the world for a short time or used such as a magic 8 ball, fortune cookie, to other things like a DJ booth that plays music, an item that fires an exploding sheep (damage is cosmetic) or a gadget that ejects you into the air then opens a parachute.

Pets - Self explanatory, these are Pet's that follow you around and can be renamed to anything you like.

Minatures - Similar to Pet's these are mini creatures that will usually float behind you and follow you around.

Banners - Custom design banners that can be carried on your back similar to how pillager leaders use them.

Emotes - Displays an animated emotion on your face for a short time to express your feelings.

Cloaks - These are cloaks which provide you with particle effects behind or around your character.

Each item is broken down into 4 categories by rarity:

- Common
- Rare
- Epic
- Legendary

To view your unlocked items use the /collectables command to open the collectables menu.



Currently at the moment mystery dust can be collected but cannot be spent on anything as of yet as I need to figure out the prices of each item and such.

In addition, depending on the impact that these have on the server (player feedback, server performance) will determine if this will be long term or something that ends up getting removed.
