Waves

under review

These waves should be able to move you around, move items around and should only spawn in areas where its deep.

    Maybe pistons could create waves to as a method of entity transport and boats wobble on them??

    I like the concept but it, I feel, that it will cause a lot of lag

    I reckon they would be able to add ocean currents as an alternative. The software might not be able to handle a wave engine

    This would be epic, this needs to be a thing immediately

    I feel like these might be hard to implement, although the concept is interesting. If you like wavy-looking water, you could try the Vanilla Tweaks mod. One of the options makes the water appear to have little waves in it.

    sounds like a good idea, but how would it affect boats or fish or stuff like that.

    Maybe waves could be in their own biome, and you could use them to get weathered variations of things like stone!

    Honestly if they could somehow perfect the application in to adding the waves, I would be all for it. but I do figure that this could make the gameplay on the ocean more choppy, and not as visually appealing. There is a lack in design when you look across the ocean on the surface. Maybe waves could fix that, but it would be risky and before it should be implemented it should be definitely trial test it or something

    I think it could give the ocean a lil more life, great idea!

    Seems possible but also could cause some issues with squids and fish dying if they were to implement it onto shores. In addition, this would cause tons of lag for lower powered computers and consoles.

    what about a mob that uses waves to attack either a passive blue whale that sends out waves with no regard for bystanders or the kraken boss someone else is talking about

    Maybe there could be a new really deep ocean biome that has waves at it’s surface. It could stretch down to the negative y coordinates, and have glow squids or other marine mobs. Mariana Trench anybody?

    Maybe just adding more dynamic water physics would be enough to simulate waves.

    They should do a aquatic update 2! Suff like bubbling chest or buildable boats/pirate ships. (The pillagera would be great for this ad they used to look like pirates before added.)

    The waves would move items to the shore.

    I think underwater currents (similar to bubble columns but on the horizontal plane) in deep oceans could be cool. Along side maybe a new redstone x prismarine block that can generate currents so you could eventually create underwater highways. This could also help bring some life back to ocean monuments by implementing new rooms using the current mechanics.

    Would be easy to implement too. Detect deep bodies of water (>10 blocks) preferably near ocean biomes and spawn a wave at the shallowest connected body of water with the widest surface area.
