FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

The Idea is simple:
Trees with golden or black Leaves

Whats the point of it ?

I need your opinion, if this idea is good

What would be the difference between these and the existing green trees? other than the obvious visual differences.

MESE or something other is made from golden leaves
for black leaves i have no idea

hmmm... not sure about that idea for MESE I think its way too easy to get as it is and its extremely overpowered. I personally think MESE should be nerfed quite a bit so it doesn't insta break and also free_move in survival mode just doesn't make sense to me. I've already took free_move out and nerfed MESE in my custom build for me and my mates on our private server.

That doesn't mean I don't like the idea for new leaf types / colours though as I do ^_^ just think they need something that makes them worth being in the game even if its just a new tree type that is only found in a certain type of biome kinda like jungle trees but even better if they can be used to craft certain things, actually saying that It would be nice to see jungle trees with different leafs to that of normal trees ^_^

It was just an idea ^^

We could get autumn/fall leaves. They'd be brown, they would never give saplings when they decay (when leaf decay/saplings are implemented). They would be fairly rare, maybe 5% of the trees.

Good Idea

What if the black leaves were somehow turned into Onyx by combining the gold (MESE) leaves and the black leaves and the Onyx were to be turned into some sort of super awesome tools? :o

EDIT: But make it a slow, difficult process in which the trees grew in caves underground or in remote place or were just really rare and really hard to break down (Like, requiring a MESE pickaxe/axe to break them in the first place.)

Very good Idea
I''ll probably make this

Black trees are already in the game ;)

But if they were to become an intended part of the game, they would form a black forest, so in the interest of realism you should be able to craft cuckoo clocks from their wood :D

I added a golden and black trees branch to my fork

Quick question about said "forks"... What exactly are they? o.o

Code which is copied from another Project

you'd have to make a biome that spawned based on the seed of them map, which would spawn these trees, and should be ultra rare

I dunno, it seems unnatural to have black trees spawning about. However, why not have average trees turn black and ashy if they catch fire. But instead of a black tree block, you get ash and it could share the same falling physics as sand and gravel.

What about, a new drawtype for leaves, that allows us to color the botom textures of leaves different than the top texture? Then we could make a silver-leaf maple mod :D

Good Idea!
