The purpose of this page

This is a compilation of all suggestions made on the Discord and Forum, gathered to the best of Hope's ability, and using Balduranne's Original Thread as a template and starting point. Many of these ideas were compiled by Berry Picker Here and Casual Here.

Note that the list does not include things that are already planned in the Roadmap.

Unless otherwise noted, this is not a list of things that will be added. Just things that are suggested.

This list is compiled for the benefit of the dev team, and is not required to include all details of your suggestion, and does not attempt to be complete, just to contain most of the suggestions made. At any time the dev team may remove items or discard this list entirely.

Also, in line with This suggestion, I (Hope) may look into moving this into a more interactive format in time.

Image Name Meaning
Grid Glass slab.png Simple suggestion This suggestion is a recipe change or enabling/disabling something.
Ingot-copper.png Coding This suggestion would take some significant amount of coding rework.
Flower-croton-small-crimson-orange.png Art & Models This suggestion would require artwork, models, or both.
