Board Thread:Suggestions forum/@comment-31507215-20170421033718

I made quick searches through the Overview Boards and did not see anything like this, but I find it hard to believe no one has suggested this before. I apologize if I am accidentally plagiarizing someone.

To put it simply, I am suggesting that the mod team should add furniture that you can actually sit on.

I always found it weird that, in Minecraft, there is no way to sit down and relax. It isn't quite as necessary in Vanilla, but in the LotR Mod, you can actually eat at a table, and stuff like that. So, here is my suggestion on adding simple furniture.

Stools
The first, and probably simplest type of seating. I know that they are canon for lots of reasons, but the first thing that pops to mind is the quote, " . . . and Bilbo sat on a stool at the fireside, nibbling at a biscuit . . . " (Biscuits should definitely be added, but that is not what this suggestion is about. :D )

They would be crafted with one plank and three sticks. You could also add a block of wool (of any color) on top to make it padded and colored.

They would either be static entities that can be placed anywhere, (like Wargskin Rugs) or non-full blocks. What I am thinking of is a three-legged stool, one block high. You could right click on it to "mount it" like you would with an actual mount. You would not be able to move it, but you would be able to change where you look. When on it, you would appear seated, like on most mounts. You should only be able to sit on it when you are close to it, (like with beds) to prevent people from combining them with pikes to climb up walls!

Cushions
Cushions would basically be (more decorative) block versions of stools.

The would be crafted with wool and either feathers or wheat.

They would be about the size of either a slab, or a 3-layer treasure pile. They would be partially-solid blocks, with different colors depending on what wool you used, but would act pretty much just like the stool. This would probably mostly be used in multi-block thrones, and stuff like that.

So, there is my suggestion. It isn't much, but I think I got the idea across. Additional furniture could definitely be added, but I want to let Mevans and the mod team decide - I just wanted to throw out my ideas.

Thanks for reading! Suggestions and Criticism welcome!
