    I recently found out that you could NOT trigger pressure plates / levers etc if you were not trusted. Fair deal, understandable - it's to prevent people from trolling.

    Except why can't you allow them to trigger redstone and redstone only?

    I feel as if you should be able to "semi" trust players into not being able to break blocks and place them - but allowing them to trigger redstone things. This would be useful for

    -Parkour
    -Elevators
    -Mazes
    -Roleplay
    -Redstone Competitions
    -The list goes on, endless possibilities.

    It would just make the game even better than it already is - just a friendly suggestion for Creative. :)

    The possibilities are many with redstone, and having a plot permissions set that allowed the use of redstone would be neat and a fun add for creative players. Redstone is something that can light up some problems though.
    I feel it usually comes with more issues than benefits, this is why many redstone features are disabled across servers. It requires a lot of fine tuning and always will require more, as players and redstone junkies find new systems and ways to exploit this complex and mechanical art.
    I always have wanted to help out creative players with supporting or adding to their games and the social environment that exists there between players—i understand this subserver is limited and when it comes to making it more fun for those that play it, i am always faced with the question: why not?
    In this case however, i think the all or nothing approach is best. They are either added/trusted and can make full use of the redstone related blocks, or they can't.

    Maybe a plot setting would be a good fix to the problem and a better alternative than wanting to '/plot s-trust' each player that plays your minigame one at a time. A setting like '/plot redstone on' would work so that everyone that comes to your island has the ability to use redstone and other similar contraptions that are currently unable to be altered when not trusted.
    Thank you

    Hello !

    I feel Players having the ability to triggering Pressure Plates - Leavers Etc In game can cause a massive issue as players do Create lag machines. If players had perms to trigger lag machines and cause lag to the server this would bring up an issue. I understand what you mean 100% But i believe it is best Creative stays how it is at the moment.

    Have a Lovely rest of your day !

    but... if they wanted to get players to lag the server they could just allow everyone? I mean that if you have an obstacle course with a trap, they fall into the trap. I don't know how "triggering lag machines" is a reason to disregard this idea, if people wanted to create lag machines they could just activate it themselves. Do you see what I mean
