Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Improved Maps

My idea is that if you stand still for a set period of time somewhere high up while holding a map, the map is filled in based on what you can see. This would mean that you would be able to fill in a large area of a map if you climbed to the top of a mountain. This would also mean that if you were standing somewhere in front of a mountain or wall, it wouldn't fill in what was obstructed by the wall or mountain. This would be useful if you had a large flat area of land, as it would save you having to spend a long time running around to fill it in. A potential issue with this would be multiple players with different render distances as some would be able to map areas faster.

    Oddly, height doesn't change how much you can see, as it doesn't effect render distance.

    Thanks PlutonicPoet34, I hadn't taken that into account until you mentioned It! I have edited the post accordingly.
