Some suggestions for the next update

Hey Vaker. ^^ Here is my current list of suggestions for inclusion into Zomberry. :)

• First of all, as we talked about earlier regarding the freecam function, it would be nice to have the option of creating an anchor point in the world where the cam stays put at a fixed point while it keeps focusing on your character as you move around, sort of like a stationary tracking-cam. It would make for awesome shots and aid in cinematic projects.

• Another nice inclusion would be a Target-to-map-location teleport, so that in addition to you being able to teleport yourself anywhere on the map, you'd be able to teleport a selected player to anywhere on the map as well without having to be close by. Right now, you can teleport yourself by holding alt and clicking the map. Maybe set so that another another key, such as ctrl or something, initiates the teleport of the pre-selected target to location on map. :)

• A function to wipe all nearby zombies within a specific radius would be convenient. Suggested to be within render distance.

• Another feature that would be nice to have as admin would be the ability to force an item spawn at the closest spawn point to your character; like, the action spawns a randomized item for that particular area; so if you are in, for example, a garage, an item will spawn in it with a predetermined percentage chance that it will be one of the possible items for the area (in this case, a sparkplug, a pickaxe, a lockpick, etc). Might be too complex a suggestion but hey, I'm spitballing here. ^^

• Oh, I just thought of something.... being able to flip an overturned car!! XD Seriously, this needs to be in there.

That's it for now. :) Keep up the good work.

Yo, late addition. Bear with me, this is a good one (at least, I imagine it to be ^^)

• Something that just came to me as a good idea to include in Zomberry would be a user friendly way of customizing your server's fresh-spawn loadout. :O Like a UI in the admin menu where you can select what items and clothes should be spawned on the players at the beginning. For that matter, you could also add a map over all spawn-points and enable admins to use a simple blocking system to be able to select what spawn points they want players to spawn at (some, all or perhaps even just a single spawn point that is always used in game for new players) .. I feel these things should be within an admin's power, but a significant amount of people who are deserving of admin rights don't actually know how to C-program.

Oh and also:

• With FreeCam, I don't know if it is possible, but a suggestion would be to make it possible to still use actions, like when you are in freecam you can still use something that you have in your hand so that you can watch your character do it from the outside (again, for cinematic purposes ^^) ... also, for the character to not just walk in place but actually move around when you are in freecam. A static position is a good way to limit accidental running into zombies or stuff like that, I toatlly understand, but if it is at all possible, if there was a way to disable the static character feature and be able to record footage of someone actually moving around... that would also be neat. ^^

Anyway, hope you are doing good. :)

And another one, again pertaining to cinematic views.. XD

• The ability to anchor the camera to a geostationary point around the character, so that when the character moves, the camera copies the movement exactly. To differentiate it from my initial suggestion, that one was a static point in the world where the camera stays put regardless of character movement (only maintaining directional focus on the character wherever he/she goes), whereas this would be the camera "pausing" at a certain distance from the character and then maintaing that distance even during movement; something that would be good to use for third person perspectives around the character in movement, such as focusing on the character in the car while driving, etc.

Alright, I'm sorry, it feels as if I am pestering you with a lot of my cinematographic wet dreams here. XD Hope you are having a great weekend. :)

Hey vaker, might be a little late an all but I am just throwing out ideas here. :D With the "set weather" function, could you also include thunder? And btw, more of a bug report; sometimes, it is just impossible to delete some items no matter how much you try.
