Shooting Stars

under review

What if there was a chance to see a shooting star across the night sky, just to make the night seem so much more realistic and beautiful.

    Hostile mobs could cease to spawn during the shooting star event, which would make the entire thing feel even more magical

    This could be a good way to introduce a new resource block. Star metal or some such.

    There could be other planets that you could see only on certain days in the game

    These sky events could have a higher chance of triggering if viewing the sky with the spyglass. Maybe distant planets, twinkling stars, & constellations are only viewable with spyglass.

    I would LOVE this to be implemented (was thinking of the same thing), and I think it should not be a high chance, what if it had like a completely random chance of happening (pulled from some RNG like java.util.random or whatever is provided by the system API of the targeted system if its on bedrock) between lets say 1 and 20 percent chance of happening.

    In addition the starts could be updated along with the moon and sun to resemble cube instead of a square, I've always felt it was more Minecraft-ish than just a square. The stars could shimmer or have different colors to introduce variety.. What about milky way??? Minecraft doesn't have any light-polution so they should be able to see it during night.

    What if you could like star gaze with a spyglass?

    It would only be visual, but it wouldn't affect the game's progress and would feel more magical.

    And that it only happens on specific nights and that it's a rare event to see.

    Yeah, they could add a new achievement to go with it, depending on how rare it is. Like if you see it, you get a clothing item or a new skin from the dressing room/marketplace.
