So, with the addition of the sniffer, two new flower types were added. In my opinion, although being very fun and pretty, I think they were a bit underwhelming. However, I think this can open the door for many possibilities. I have seen the idea of the old school pocket edition blue roses being a sniffer drop tossed around, and I have an idea in a similar genre. I think that adding a single "Alpha Block" of grass drop from the sniffer would start to make the sniffer extremely useful for some. This block could bring back the old school neon-green look of Alpha, while still feeling vanilla. I do not think that this block should change the biome, as I know that could be difficult to implement. This would be a purely visual feature. It could function similar to Mycelium, where in it wouldn't overtake existing grass, only dirt. Mushrooms planted on mycelium grow into full sized mushrooms, right? Well, I thought something similar could happen to oak/all saplings planted on "Alpha Blocks." When the sapling grows, its leaves would also share the distinct neon green color the grass has. I have no experience in game development, but I think that this idea could be fairly easy to add. It builds off of an already established feature. In conclusion, I think this block idea would fit well into the idea of a prehistoric minecraft mob, as well as still fitting the tone and atmosphere of the modern game. I have no idea f anyone else has had this idea, just thought I would share, thanks :)
