Most of you know about the skyworld which should come to minecraft soon. I was thinking that we should change the gravity, so each island has its own gravity. Then you could walk everywhere on the islands and build upside-down cities.
Maybe the world's gravity below you would still be affecting you, but in a lesser strength, so you would only fall down to the earth if you tried to walk upside down on small islands and 1x1 towers and such.
Sounds good, but I'm sure it would be VERY difficult to program. Also, because everything is square, it would be difficult to determine which way you orientate when you move from one zone of gravity to another. And where would the centre of gravity be?
It would be far too complicated to implement.
I have to agree with this. There could be some kind of Gravity Block that generates inside large chunks but even then it would be next to impossible to do with islands of random sizes.

If you had an opaque block surrounded by opaque blocks on all 4 sides, it would give that landmass, for example, 0.2 gravity. Each of these blocks would give it that. So if you had 10 of these blocks, that landmass would have 2.0 gravity. The gravity would spread out something like this.
(That is TNT's explosion directions.)
We could create something like this for the gravity. Then there would be the gravity of the earth, which could be, for example, 1.5. So a landmass would have to have 1.6 gravity or higher for you to walk around it. Or else you will just go down with the earth. I'm no Java programmer, but I think this should work.

Yeah, I know. What about a small animation for doing this?
Like this, but smoother.
