Palm & Coconut Trees (was: Palm Trees)

There a few different types of trees in Minecraft but I think one that would really liven up the world, and that could fit well with the new Update Aquatic, are palm trees. They could only generate on or around beaches obviously. Also, I would really really want coconuts trees to be added too. The coconuts could be kind of like cocoa beans but a little different. You could drink from them and eat them. I feel like this would really help and is something I’ve wanted for a while.

    Drinking Coconut Milk should have the same effects as drinking regular milk, removing any potion effects on the player.

    I agree. This adds a better vibe when on a beach biome rather than just having sand.

    Maybe the coding could be like you can only place palm trees on sand, or only on beach biomes.

    Yes!! I've always wondered why there were no palm trees when there are so many empty beaches in the game.

    I applaud! Palm trees are definitely a great but subtle addition to the game, and cool items like coconuts and coconut milk make this a killer idea! I also suggest making these trees pretty rare, to make it a treat when you find their wood, coconuts and leaves!

    If they generated on any beach biome they could generate in places they really wouldn't fit

    I think it would be cool if when you put coconuts in a furnace you would get fried coconut. It would give you +4 hunger points when eaten. Also, when you eat a raw coconut it acts as milk(clears potion effects). When eaten insead of disapearing it gives you a coconut shell. They can make armor stronger than leather but weaker than chainmail. Also, if you put a shell in a crafting table, you get 2 bowls. Hope you like my opinion!

    Banana’s on banana trees should be a block which would be a cluster of bananas which would be broken into 8-9 bananas.

    I think coconut milk should also be able to make coconut cakes

    It sounds really cool! It will add more vibe to the beaches then just plain old sand.

    Maybe it should give the effects of milk and also restore a small portion of hunger like 1 drum stick.

    We can place the empty coconuts like decorative bowls! It'll add to tables a sort of realness. And dried palm tree leaves can be placed like plates or roof tiles, or if they're long enough and not dried out as dyable curtains

    I definitely recommend having the palm trees, beaches and deserts definitely need an update. Maybe an oasis biome?
    I think it'd be awesome if you could make a coconut helmet that gives you some sort of special effect. It's silly little additions to games like that that just make the game so much more enjoyable, kind of like how the llamas spit at you to deal damage, or how you use a carrot on a stick to direct the pig. Those kinds of things have always given me a bit of a chuckle and helped me to enjoy the game a bit more.

    Or probably you can get bananas by breaking the palm tree leaves just like getting apples from oak trees.

    To-

    “Cartercruise442 ‘There should be chocolate milk and chocolate cows.’”

    I think chocolate milk is a great idea crafted with cocoa beans, sugar, and milk. But I don’t think chocolate milk coming from chocolate cows is a good idea since 16.4 million Americans believe that chocolate milk comes from brown cows which is only about 7% of Americans but that’s alot of people and we donkt wanna have the idea spike up. Mushrooms are different, I don’t believe children think there are red and brown cows that have mushrooms sticking from there back.

    This sounds great! It would really help with the problem of finding good after you spawn and would make a great decoration for a beach build

    Coconut milk could be like normal milk and remove potion effects but maybe it only removes negative effects like nausea,wither, ect and it could also add hunger.

    There could even be different palms for different biomes. Beach could have coconut palm, desert can have date palm, jungle can have acai palm, swamps can have saw palmetto, and savanna can have jelly palms.

    Apart from having sand, beaches also have turtles. And who doesn't like turtles? Also, coconuts should be the size of a conduit be place-able and you can use shears on them to make the drinkable version. (The result is an empty version that cannot be filled)

    Don’t think that coconut milk has to be introduced. Rather have inside coconuts the normal milk. So that when you’re at the Beach and there are no coconuts around you just look for coconut because they’ve got milk inside.

    PLEASE tell me there's also going to be Signs, Doors, Buttons, Pressure Plates (anything wooden, aside from tools) associated with these as well (though, this might hurt the Spigot/Bukkit plugin community with these additions)

    The coconuts should be used to craft coconut milk and the shells could be made into bowls
