Hello everyone, I'm quartz and here are some things that are always annoying me and need to be changed or fixed. This isn't supposed to be a rant so I'm sorry if it looks like one, I just want to make bedrock a better place for everyone. Let's start:
ok that's it, thanks for reading and i hope that at least some of the things i mentioned get fixed or added
edit; fixed mistake in Saturation
Problem 1: The Knockback
This might not apply to everyone but for me, this is kinda annoying. The new knockback is way better than the old one, that's not a question, tho sometimes it can get really really wonky which really isn't really fun and made me question my life a few times. On rare occasions, the knockback just doesn't exist at all and on other occasions, it's kinda there but also isn't which is really annoying when fighting on edges. Also, trying to combo someone is pretty hard when you deal literally no knockback. I noticed this happen on all maps.
How to fix this? Since i cant reproduce it, I don't really know, tho i hope that someone will find out soon enough

Problem 2: The Maps and the coordinates
On bedrock, the more blocks you are away from spawn, the buggier and laggier it gets. Now, why is this a problem on cube? Well, all the maps are in a single world file which means that some individual maps are really far away from spawn (I'm talking 30k - 80k or even more blocks) which makes them really buggy. A demo of this bug is available here made by a popular Youtuber called AntVenom. Here are some examples:
These are all screenshots from skywars solos maps
How to fix this? Make an individual world file and save the maps in those

Problem 3: The Skin Bug
This is something I already reported as a bug, which unfortunately got denied with the comment that it's not fixable. Tho I that this isn't fixable since IIRC I noticed it after the knockback update. Basically what this bug is:
This is what my skin is supposed to look like and
this is what it looks like on cube. What's happening is that the server handling the arms of player skins incorrectly which results in the left hand texture being replaced with the right hand texture.

Problem 4: Health and Hunger desyncing
This is probably known by the devs but hasn't been fixed yet. The main problem here isn't with the health, but with the hunger. Regeneration in 1.9+ is based on saturation. Before you ask, saturation is not hunger. If your saturation is higher than 0, you regen fast. Very fast. Every saturation point equals one regenerated health point. Some food gives more saturation than others and this is totally fine. The only thing that annoys me here is that if you're saturated you regen like crazy which basically makes you invincible for a couple of seconds. I'll get to this later. Now, if your hunger is desyncing with the server, this means that sometimes you cant eat. During a fight, it is crucial to eat because of the regeneration i mentioned before. No eat = No regen. No regen = no win. I died way too often because of this and its just getting really annoying at this point.

Problem 5: Saturation
Nerf it. Please. I'm tired of getting recked by someone with way worse gear just because they have food when I don't. I love the 1.9 saturation mechanic. In fact, it's probably essential but only if paired with 1.9 pvp. It just doesn't go well on 1.8(-ish) pvp since it literally puts you in godmode as long as you're saturated enough. Being unable to do damage for like 4 hits straight is not really cool.
How to fix it? Reduce how fast health regensand cap the saturation at like 4-5. A full list of saturation values can be found here forget about this, it already is.

Problem 6: Unbalanced chest loot in normal solo sw
I already talked about gold swords in another thread. This isn't really a problem tbh since you can just use ur fists to kill players(this is a joke pls remove gold swords). This thread is more about armor. I keep getting no leggings, neither on my islands nor the middle. If you didn't know, leggings are the second best armor piece. Not having leggings will result in fights being lost which happens to me a lot because RNGesus hates me.
How to fix? Increase the spawn rate of leggings(and maybe armor in general) just a little (5-10%) and remove or buff gold swords.

Problem 7: Armoury not in LI
please add armoury to lucky islands I'm used to not choosing a kit anymore and whenever I play li I forget to chose my kit
how to fix? copy paste armoury.jar to the lucky islands servers

Problem 8: Targetting because voting
This might be just me but I feel like I keep getting targetted whenever I vote for normal chest items. And as mods probably know, getting targetted is annoying as heck.
How to fix? Add an option to the settings menu to avoid having your name showed up when you vote

"Problem 9": regen on kill
this is more of a suggestion than a problem but this would help fighting against teamers and 3rd parties. Whenever you kill someone, you should get regeneration 1 or 2 for like 3-5 seconds so you're not an easy kill anymore.

Problem 10: Ghost blocks
the devs are already aware of this so this is just a reminder to fix this pls it can get really annoying at times

"Problem 11": Shields
I only saw players use shields twice, one of which was in hazards stream and as far as I could tell, they block all incoming damage, so maybe change that like it is on java because i can see a new shield meta coming up when this gets known.

Suggestion 12: Map selector
