Hi guys it is Radlam here,
Me and larkosaurus (she has recently returned) think that it would be a good idea to add cocoa beans to the market and people could sell their cocoa beans to the market. The good thing is that it is impossible to make cocoa bean farms auto! So people wouldn't be afking to get cocoa beans but they would actually have to spend time collecting the cocoa beans which I believe is survival XD. I think this would be a good idea and would give people a chance to make money without afking or mining! Please take this suggestion into thought.
Radlam and Larkosaurus.

Woo I agree! And Btw, me and Rad have already trademarked 'Coco & Co' for our company :P
-
That is a really good idea since you cant do it automatically!
-
I know people want new items to be added to the market, but in my opinion if we keep adding items to buy and sell, the server will lose it's survival feel and people will be buying things more then they'll be playing Minecraft.
I really think only things like blocks, armor, tools, and a few misc items should be available at the market, I don't want to see Opticraft become some 'buy 'n' sell' server.
-
I kinda like this idea as well!
-
Nop.avi, just sell it to other people. That would be fine too. Or make cookiez!
-
I agree that not alot more should be added to the market but this is one of the if not only plants that you can not make auto so I think it should be added but I don't mind negative comments.

Don't Cocoa beans just randomly grow on jungle trees like vines do? Just get yourself some jungle trees and stop being lazy. *LOL*
-
Nooo its too sell cocoa beans at market not buy them XD. But people can purchase them if they like XD
-

You basically said what I wanted to say XD
-
people could sell their cocoa beans to the market.
Shall we try this again but actually read the suggestion?

Exactly what I was going to say.
But like what DeeKay has stated below.

Guys... There's a reason melons and pumpkins were removed. The reason was because people were making WAY. To much money off of them. The same reason would be for coca beans. Since they are farmable, you can just get infinite money. That is why coca beans will most likely not get added

I farmed cocoa beans for 30 minutes and went from 3 to over two stacks while managing the rest of my farm. Even though you can't auto farm them the grow far to quickly.
-
BAD IDEA opticraft will lose the survival part to it and u can make a auto cocoa bean farm I made one but I give my cocoa beans away ;)
-
so pistons properly placed couldn't autofarm the beans?
-
i'm debating here, sure it will make the server a bit less, "survivalish" but it would be a easy way to get protection stones, since everyone always complains about grief.
-
just for the record
you cant autofarm them (like full auto melon/pump farms)
you can semi auto farm them, (like semi wheat farms)
as far of making money, a semi farm woudnt provide that easely
the only reason would be the survival aspect, wich i could agree on
-
You can't auto farm, but you can semi-auto farm...
You can use pistons to push the logs so they all fall off, or water.
All you have to do is re-plant.
-
Sooo, what your trying to say is, pistons have no effect when they "retract" on the cocoa beans?
-
Wait you can plant cocoa beans? I thought that was to be in a much later update...
-
No Snape. You can't plant them... It's gonna be in the 4.3.6 update!
-

Really?
Snape it came in 1.3
-
I think they should be sold because for the poor, we cant afford to buy protection stones and now my farm was raided of all my crops because i couldn't afford to protect my farm
-
I really like this idea but there is already a market so really
It's already lost most of the survival gameplay
-
I adding one more item only to sell isn't much
-
This looks like a very debatable topic, and I think we all should take some time and think whether or not they should be able to be sold at the market.
-
Not to get off topic, but wheat isnt sold at the market.....i would like that
-
Guys, the reason why you can't sell Cocao beans and wheat is the same reason why Melons and Pumpkins is removed from the market. This will be just like an endless discussion like Melons-and-Pumpkins-removed-from-the-market-discussion-topic. People are gone to abuse it. This server isn't about making money or to get rich. And that is why I am against this idea. If you want to get money or want to be rich, just be a year on the server. Then you have loads of stuff and a load builded. Then you are rich too. You just need to be patience.

*slowly eats popcorn*
Uhm...guysh? Have you realished we can already shell them to playersh?
(Translation: Have you realized we can sell them to players? Also noobs that think they're still rare.)

Also, as some other guy said, we can give them away. OR make cookies. 2 wheat and a cocoa bean already hands you 8 cookies. And besides, can't we stick to mining ores to get money? And yeah, everyone wants to be rich. Donate plz? :P
-
I actually agree with this idea. The reason melons and pumpkins were removed was because people were afking and getting money. I have a couple of price ideas:
64xCocaBeans Sold = $200
32xCocaBeans Sold = $100
64xCocaBeans Buy = $500
32xCocaBeans Buy = $250
-
Tbh. Although you can afk and let cocoa beans grow you have to replant then. Unlike melon and pumkins
-
Cocoa beans are very easily obtainable not worth being added to the market, not to mention how much money people could make off them. I think this topic has had enough discussion.
Locked.
