World Disable Player(unit) Collision [12 Supporters]

Normally I play on 1.8.9, but recently tried out Wynncraft Enhanced which uses 1.11, and noticed that there's client-specific player collision. Since the player collide doesn't affect pre-1.9 clients, but does affect 1.9 and above clients.

There doesn't seem to be much point to having it enabled, as there's little purpose to pushing people around very slowly. In fact, it could even sometimes be harmful, if a player was malicious: e.g. pushing someone out of a safe spot when afk'ing, and getting them killed. Or even pushing someone very slowly out of town and getting them killed.

As well, if one person is using a 1.8 client and the other is using 1.9+ then the 1.9+ person cannot push the other person back since player collision doesn't impact pre-1.9 clients.

 

Yes, definitely, though it is fun to push my brother off of parkour...

 

Player pushing is a client side thing.
It's like how horses are a client side on 1.9, but in 1.8 they are a server side.

 

Player collision can be disabled even in 1.9+ server side. I know this for a fact since the other server I played on a lot RedWarfare, is 1.10, but has a lot of things changed, like no player collision.

 

ye but jppresent mite hab better things to do

 

You can disable player collision on 1.9+ servers, but since Wynn is 1.8, I don't think they can disable it.

 

Wynn supports 1.8, but since there is no player collision in 1.8 (was only implemented in 1.9), it shouldn't be a factor

 

The 1.9 minecraft client automatically has player collision on, but minecraft 1.9 servers have a way to disable it for everybody. Since Wynn is 1.8, they can't disable it, so the players in 1.9+ have player collision enabled.

 

well it is possible, but... takes a bit

 

Well, yeah, but I doubt it's their main priority. There isn't an easy way to disable player collision though.

 

Well it's an MMO I do hope they weren't expecting it to be easy.
They definitely need to do this right now, playerbase and playability should be first priority, then content.
