Make carpet stackable like snow caps!

For PC edition

Note: I did previously suggest this, but at the current time Minecraft was built in a way that would make this impossible.

The title pretty much explains it, this isn't a complex suggestion: carpet would be stackable just like snowcaps are. This would open up a lot of possibilities with depth, and would offer the ability to create a version of wool slabs.

EDIT: Pros and Cons

  • Pros: Adds the ability to add more depth, allows a lot more freedom with building in general

  • Cons: Not the most logical thing in the world, could potentially break how some people currently use carpet (unless done right).

Will update as new ones are brought to my attention!

That'd be really cool, and perhaps shift clicking on a carpet with another one would still place it a block above the bottom one like it does now. Still a lot of neat designs possible with that.

I like that then we could make really good builds

I think that it would break many things, people often make shelves and whatnot with carpet, but I also think that your idea is cool, so between weighing up those two possibilities I think that the one we have now is best. If there was some way to integrate the two together, I like u/Kentastrophe_'s idea, that "shift clicking on a carpet with another one would still place it a block above the bottom one like it does now." But also, on the other hand, since when do people lay carpet over more carpet; but since when does Minecraft care about logic, I mean, since when? So AGGGHHH. Idk, It would be very awesome for decorating so I agree.

Yeah I certainly agree that there are pros and cons. I'll add it to the original post because you make some good points, thanks!

Great idea, I hope this is some day implimented.

Yes! Also, carpet should work like item frames do, so you can put a block in the same space that it is. I posted this a while ago however, and it got mostly downvotes. So I guess it is a bad idea?

Well, item frames are entities, so it wouldn't work well because of the lag caused by them.

That is a really good idea I was wanting it when making a map

Cool

great idea. Although, the con doesn't really hold ground seeing as how minecraft suggestions don't need to fit real-life logic.

Yeah, I agree. Just thought I should balance out the pros with some cons.. let me know if you come up with more plausible ones for either.

Carpet is less than 1/8 of a block, so it would need to stack a lot more of them than snow. [Sloped carpet] (http://redd.it/3b740f) could be an alternative way to give a gradient to wool builds.
