Gift Airdrops 🪂

[masonmasterbot]

I decided to make a gift dropping related suggestion to help with a problem that gifters (like me) can have: gift drop hoarding

suggestion
when you drop a gift you are give a new option: airdrop
this new option gives you a map of the hub where you select a location and you can select anywhere in hub to drop your gift!
the falling animation would be like supply drops in sg and the message could be

[User] has airdropped a gift! Watch out!

To be fair for all users the gift would not be claimable until having touched solid ground

this would be used as a way for gifters to drop without players following and immediately claiming the gifts

as a gifter I also recommend these suggestions for addressing the same problem

Throwable gifts

Hello, it’s been a little bit since I last posted an idea here. Here is a little random idea, but what if you added a setting to allow you to throw gifts? You would throw them kinda like and egg, with physics. This could make it so that you can play games in the hub. Certain gifts might have different effects, like for example it would automatically equip any hat if it lands on your head. This might not be an idea for the regular hub, but it could work for April fools. Anyway, thanks for readin…

Gifting Anonymously

Hello This feature is very simple. When gifting in hub, you can choose between two options. Gift with user name (ceoricon dropped a gift!) Gift anonymously (someone dropped a gift!) I’ve seen this happen multiple times, where someone drops a gift and then 5 people chase the gift dropper spamming for them to be gifted. And yes, I know, there are some giveaways where people will tell you to follow them to drop, that’s why you can choose

Nice idea, it would be like 10x more fun to be in YouTuber giveaway if you get to actualy see the gift lol

I really like this idea, as then you don’t have 100 players after you mason, (or any other gifter) the hive backpack already has a map of the hub, and I think there could be a button to send the gift to a random location!

The one problem I could see here is gifts landing in spots only accessible with mounts making users without mounts just unable to get it staring at it and being sad

[masonmasterbot]

already is an issue currently anyways
I don’t think there’s too many areas where players couldn’t reach without mounts

I had gotten the block friday bundle giving me the helicopter mount, allowing me to get a gift on top of the Christmas tree near the quest master. It was only accessible if I had a mount, but I thought it was a cool location

that’s fair
