A Single Collective Storage
By: Bla Date: June 11, 2012, 2:06 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
I just got this idea... The collective storage in Spawntown is
already vastly bigger than what is needed, so... Instead of
regions building their own collective storages, we could have
just public storages in them, and a SINGLE collective storage,
which would be the one in Spawntown.
Instead of storing your items in your regions (in collective
storages with private chests), your private chests would be here
in the Spawntown one, so I can graph them easily every Thursday.
Good things:
Makes graphing the economy of all of our collective storages
much easier with no travel required. Makes it possible to make
rules on how we distribute the contributions we make to the
economic polls in the public voting center.
Bad things:
Everyone will have to travel to Spawntown to deposit and
retrieve the items in the collective storage. Potentially, they
could be requested and sent by cargo rails by Bla with some
delay ofc, but this could be risky.
The alternative to this could be that people themselves would
have to graph the items in their collective storages every
Thursday if they want to use collective storages and not just
have everything being public. I think it's a problem that we
only have statistics for the Spawntown one, and it always seems
to be that one which usually provides the items to our projects.
In the current state the collective storages seem a bit more
like private shelters for items rather than what they were
intended for - helping everyone with their big projects. So in
short, probably one of these alternatives will have to happen:
1: Everyone will have to at least provide data on what is stored
in their collective storage every Thursday.
2: Everyone will have to provide Bla with the coordinates of
their collective storage so he can tp there every Thursday to
collect data on the items. (Bla is not very amused of this)
Discuss.
And if you don't like the idea, please consider alternatives and
whether the idea is better than the alternatives.

I don't like this... It's too spawntown centric.

Yes, the economy would be extremely centralized with this
system... Spawntown makes most sense to me because the town has
a very central location compared to other towns and in the rail
system, but other ideas are welcome.
I think it could work okay with cargo lines. You should be able
to get your items delivered to your area within a day if you
just request them in a PM or something, and you could send items
to the storage. With new working plugins I can see what people
take from chests, so I should be able to see if people take the
items from cargo chests.
Anyway, I updated the post, please consider the alternatives as
well or any other alternatives you may have.
Because we have no transparency in the economy currently, and I
won't let it continue this way.

Well, for cargo lines, we'd need to set up more of them,
currently only Desertopia has a direct cargo line to Spawntown.
The fact that we don't need so many boosters now helps.
I'm going to be setting mine up soon between Kaeshar and
Spawntown.

1. We could have an ender chest when it comes out and find a
time when your on Bla.
2. Like, is there a percentage of something you have to give to
the collective storage, because I'm like low on everything
except for pumpkins. (~20 stacks).
3. When we put it in the collective, the chest are locked there,
so do we put it in a chest? Or do you make a chest that only
yourself and Bla can acsess?
4. What happened in Zuntriio? Did someone steal all the
sandstone or something? I just took what a mined, but if thats
not ok I can give it back.

Oh. So Bla is *not* going to try to catch the person who did it.
That's resonable; why waste your own time when someone else did
it?
