I'm kind of in a predicament

Basically I’m making a build to survive where you build with your own blocks, but there’s a problem I have.

I want to make it so you can mine for blocks and sell those blocks for cash, but I’m kinda scared someone will either do, 1A, abuse this mine for getting free blocks as I want people to work for them/buy them, or 1B use said blocks and build blocks in the mine and using that to their advantage…

Maybe I can do can’t stay in there for too long because of oxygen deprivation? idk something like that like its not safe to be in there for too long

How could I fix this? I could make it so they can be in the mine for a limited time, but then they will get kicked out with their blocks, and I can’t just take their blocks since that’s weird. There’s no good middle ground I can think of.

What I want though is this,

  • “Refining” blocks with a crafting table (basically you can upgrade a lower rarity block for a higher rarity block using a process that takes a long time
  • Can sell blocks
  • Can’t just walk out with those blocks
  • Problems I said above solved

So, any ideas? (Ideas for the easy ones, I can probably code your idea into the map to solve my issue)

1- You kinda explained this one already, just use crafting table and crafting recipes
2- Vending machines
3- Make it so to exit the mine they press a button, then remove all the items you want from them
4- You could make it so when they are in the cave they slowly use an item type, and when they enter they get up to 100 of the item but every second they lose 1

1- ye ik
2- Im using crafting tables, more versatile
3- wont work. It replies on honesty. So it doesn’t solve the cheating problem in the first place, plus what if they walk in with blocks? If I do that it removes all the blocks they used to have so that’s difficult to do. (I know you can add a barrier but then I need to add so many different properties and stuff)
4- ye, I can just use a counter, wire repeater, and teleporter.

I just need 3, idk why I said 1 2 and 4

Good idea

still a problem tho with walking in with blocks

I could do players are not able to walk in or out if they have any blocks that works

For now I will just do that.

(Oh please, Josh, PLEASEEE, OH PLEASEEE JOSH, MAKE A ZONE HAVE AN OPTION FOR NO BUILDING IN THE ZONE, PLEASEEE!!!)

Okay, sooo, I don’t really know how to save the certian items, you might just need to trust the players

Plus I can add if zombies have blocks they can keep them I guess, but they wont be able to go into the mine. Yeah this works.

and also this
