What's the title of your suggestion?: Musical Instrument Changes/Rework
What's your suggestion?:
I feel like the instruments are more just like noise makers, and it would be a cool change to have them be able to perform better than how it is currently.
Personally, IRL, I play the trombone, and I am learning how to play the Khaen (Lao instrument), piano, and drums, and I have trouble with playing music with the instruments in-game (which in some other games that includes instruments, I can play easier)
So, what could be changed?
1. The way you look, currently looking down for a higher note and looking up for a lower note, could be changed so that if you look up, it's a higher note, and looking down is a lower note, and also visualizing what note you're looking at.
2. Right clicking with an instrument could bring up a menu where you are capable of using keyboard inputs, maybe the numbers 1-7 and have maybe 9 & 0 to raise/lower octave (would be better if you could use different keys, such as ZXCVBNM, ASDFGHJ, and QWERTYU, and each row is a different octave) and where you can select a key signature. (still having the left click play a single note depending on how you look)
3. Have some kind of composer tool that allows people to play premade music using an instrument (similar to the phone music player)
4. After some searching, I've seen @findouticly's suggestion here, and I like the idea as well, though I dislike the idea a bit due to clicking being a bit slower, it still is an improvement from what we have already.
These are some ideas, I've included 3 different ideas on what could be changed/added that would ease playing music with the instruments, with the first suggestion being the easiest, and the 2nd and 3rd one being more complex and more difficult or maybe even impossible to implement, it would make playing music much more easier in my opinion.
I personally would like the 2nd one being added.
I'm not sure if it's possible for 2/3 either.
Addressing instrument spam, I haven't seen it so much, but yes, it could be annoying, lowering the volume would be beneficial. In addition, maybe add an option to mute someone's instruments/music.
How will this benefit the server and community?:
People could perform actual pieces of music, rather than noise that can possibly sound like music. It also enhances characters that are musicians so that they can play music. It may also inspire the creation of bands that have actual music to play. (I don't know if bands that can actually play music in-game already do exist, but I personally assume not.)
