TL;DR Barriers are currently disabled in Creative. I'm suggesting they be re-enabled: a) Entirely or b) For World Edit Only ---- The Long Monotone Version (that actually has details and stuff) Barriers, Item '166', was placable using World Edit until recently; I am curious why this was changed, however, I have yet to speak to anyone who actually knows why this change was made. (If you know the reason(s), please comment below.) Barriers: Pros and Cons Pros - Great for Parkour, Head/Banner Shops, Mazes, General Builds, etc... - Becomes invisible; better than glass for some builds (Holding another Barrier in hand makes them visible) Cons - Lag from Barrier particle effects (this can be countered by turning particle effects to 'Minimal'.) - To be added as mentioned For More Detail on Barriers: http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Barrier Option Details Re-enable Entirely: This means to make Barriers usable with and without World Edit. (Barriers can be placed like regular blocks, and are obtainable and usable through World Edit.) Re-enable Partially: This means to make Barriers usable only with World Edit. (Barriers cannot be placed like regular blocks, but are usable through World Edit.) I'd also like to add: Barriers are not hacked items, nor are they used for lag machines. This item functions much like all other standard blocks, and it's a part of Minecraft that was purposely added in, not for Survival, but for Creative. (I base this claim on the fact that special commands are needed to obtain it and that it can only be broken in Creative mode.) For those that bothered to read this far, thank you for your time! :D
Support. When I duped a couple hundred thousand on Factions I couldn't see them even when holding one. Is being able to see them for 1.9+?
I play on 1.8.9, and I can still see them... if you have particles set to minimal, the barrier icon won't load, so maybe you should check that in settings. If this doesn't help, then I'm not sure ^^; Aside from that, I'm not familiar with the use of barriers on factions, and this thread is only for bringing Barriers back to Creative mode, so even if this is implemented, it shouldn't affect factions. Thanks for the support though!
