Hello,
I came up with some crafting ideas one day, and I think some of them should be implemented in the game (and not as a mod, for the players that can't/don't know how to install mods).
Note: with the new types of arrows, the bow would select the ones adjacent to it in the hot slots
Here they are, excuse my bad photoshop.
Spears: Does less damage than swords. Left click for close attack, Right click to throw. The * in the picture can be a stick, iron, diamond, gold, etc.
Ballista: Launches spears.
Crossbow: Launches arrows farther than bows. RMB once to load, RMB a second time to shoot. ]
Darklight: The opposite of torches.
Fire Arrow: Launches a flaming arrow that starts a fire where it touches and sets mobs on fire.
Grapple: Right click to throw, space to climb, shift to descend, right click again to release.
Hammer and Chisel: Used to take apart things like workbenches faster.
Motion Sensor: Connects to redstone, activates when something gets in its way. ]
Slingshot: A ranged weapon that does a small amount of damage. Shooting is the same as bows.
Pebbles: Used as ammo for the slingshot. Note: It might be more realistic if gravel was used instead of cobblestone.
Monster Spawner: Used to spawn monsters. To activate it, place it down, right click on it, and there would be a slot where you insert the item drop of the mob you want to spawn (rotten flesh=zombie, gold nugget=pigzombie,bone=skeleton, etc.)
TNT launcher: Launches any block of TNT you place in front of it. Right click the launcher to launch the TNT. This would allow for much less cumbersome cannons.
Spring/Springboard: Springboard is used to jump higher. 4 Springs can be crafted by placing 3 iron ingots in a zig-zag pattern.
Sticky Arrow: Like the grapple, but shot from a bow. ]
Sticky Slab: Severly slows down anything on top of it.
Toothbrush: You have a higher chance of spontaneously getting food poisoning if you haven't brushed your teeth in a while.
Hope these are accepted, whether in this coming release or minecraft 2, I don't know. Thank you for reading!
Some of these suggestions like the crossbow and the TNT launcher (IMO should be a cannon and should be loaded with gun powder and shoot cannon balls) seem like good ideas that keep the feel of Minecraft, but the ideas like the springboard just seem to childish. Kind of like a 3D Mario game but less interesting.
