More dropped item objects

[bricksbricksbricks]

Short description: Let items be represented by other objects than the box with blue tape when dropped.

 

Detailed description: A script computer for example could have any of the laptop objects when dropped, a bong could be represented by a bong, A script Item TV bought from a custom store (electronics store) could be represented by an actual TV. Drugs could look more like the drugs they actually are and so on. Much like when you drop a baseball bat, it's represented by a baseball bat object.

 

Commands to add: Something to change an items "drop object" with or to set it during creation, for example when someone creates an item they'd input the furni name to use that object when the item is dropped.

 

Items to add: N/A ... you could expand on it to give the furni menu for placing your dropped item, so you don't have to stand on tables etc.

 

How would your suggestion improve the server?: You can bring your laptop to a café and drop/put it on the table, that's immersive. Things would look more like what they are instead of the blue tape package, it's immersive. There'd also be more of a reason to have script items. You can have an actual item for your computer, bong, whatever really, that you can take with you. It'd also be easier to see what things are, for example in prisons evidence locker haha. More things to spend your money on.

 

Additional information: Probably some change or restriction to picking up items with Y key, Shorter radius and a different key perhaps, or a menu for picking stuff up to avoid accidently taking someone's laptop when you're just exiting a property etc.

 

Perhaps as a start you could apply it only to drugs, it could even scale with the amount of items dropped in the stack if you're ambitious I guess.

I agree. Hope to see this happen.

Yeah fully supported here. While I can understand a miscellaneous object for something like a custom item, script items that have a defined model (guns, maybe ammunition, melee weapons, etc) should have an appropriate model when dropped in the world, especially considering for guns the models already exist as placeable ones for furnishing.
