Okey, let's get straight to the point of this topic and why it's needed...
Me (Majataka) and my friend (Kajter) has came up with a suggestion today to make chairs sitable. So far we have been making "fantasy" chairs by using a "Stair" and a "Sign" on the sides of the "xxxxx Stair" so it looked like chair and a sofa.
While playing MP on my server and roleplaying a bit, we were eating by the "Table" I made by using a single "Fence Pole" and a "Wooden Pressure Plate" on top of the "Fance". So while eating at the morning and the nights we were "Crouching" right infront of the "Stair" so it looked like we were sitting. But the crouching animation isn't still what we all possibly want. After some day and nights in MC I came up with an idea to make this suggestion. Then Kajter supported me with it and gave me the from chair to sofa suggestion.
How will it work?
It's simple. You craft a chair like this
and get 1 "Chair" Block. Then later you place it where ever you want. When you right click the "Chair" your character will sit on it with the same sitting animation that is used on the "Boat"when you are in it.
Suggested by other posters:
The health would slowly regenerate when sitting
The food meter would deploy slower
The time would go 2 times faster (?)
How do you make the sofa now?
You can turn the chair into a 2 block sofa by placing another chair to the other chair. So basically its like expanding the small chest, you just place the other chest next to it.
Should the sofa/chair color be changeable?
Yes. You just change the wool color in the crafting grid. If you want a white sofa, use normal white wool, If you want a brown one like I used in the model use brown wool.
How should the chair and the sofa look like in game?
I made a model in Google Sketch up with the default brown wool texture on it so show you how it should look like.
Second Updated Version by mixing Florgensteins and Mister Person's ideas. The "handles" are made out of wood, rest is still covered in wool.
Here is a model made by Florgenstein, In this case the player would craft the chair with green wool. No idea how Florgenstein made them but good work. Thumbs up to that man.
NEW!: Thrones (Same act like chairs and the sofa)
How do they look like? Well, I made a model of what people have suggested
As you can see, The throne is made out of gold and got red "puffs" made out of wool.
Can we change the wool color like on the chairs? Yes, the same way as you do it on the chairs, you just change the color of the wool in the crafting grid. If you want red "Puffs" (Like in the pic) you can use red wool and so on
Can we make a diamond throne? Yes, the same way as you make the gold one but you just change the gold blocks and gold ingot with diamond and diamond blocks
How should we craft them? Like this...
How big should the throne be? Well, in my opinion it should be 1x2x1 blocks. Wide*height*lengt like you can see on the picture.
OMG! YOUR SUGGESTION IS EPIC. I WANT TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT IT BUT HOW?

Great idea Maja. I don't think there's any of us who haven't thought "it'd be nice to be able to sit on this chair" after putting down some wooden stairs and some signs on the side :tongue.gif:
I'd love for furniture to be in the game. Some times I run out of ideas for decoration in my house, and adding shelves, chairs, sofas, etc would really make my homes feel more homey. It'd be nice to sit in front of a fireplace and eat a porkchop after a days work in the mines ;D
What does the sitting-in-a-boat animation look like? Anybody got a screenshot they could post? I've never seen anyone in a boat for some weird reason. I just assumed I was standing in the boat.

Craft a boat, place it in water sit in it and press F5 and look around. You should see how it looks like :smile.gif:
I wouldn't be surprised if Notch added a chair sooner or later, and if he does, I hope it works something like this.
But what does it do? Maybe it can let you rest for a minute like the bed, or heals your health faster? Or would it just be a decorative peice like the bookshelf?
I was thinking of making it "useable/sit-able" like I wrote above. It would also be a decorative piece. And if the player sits on the chair the time would go x2 times faster only in Single Player.
@azanic , Jens and Notch usualy look at the topics that got most replies... If we continue talking about this on this topic, maybe they will notice it and go "WHOAH! WHAT A GREAT IDEA" :tongue.gif:
Though the color of the wool you put should influence the item itself. Like if you craft it with brown wool, you would get a brown chair, green gets you a green chair, etc.
suggestion!

I personally think its a great idea. Could use some touch ups on the model though. Just wait for incoming trolls to ruin this great idea...
Made. Updated the topic :smile.gif:
MOD? Come on... It should be in the game without modding :smile.gif:
