[SEC/FUN/INFO/CHAT/TP] Towny Advanced v0.80.1.0 - Land and town management [2149+ 1.2.5-R1.0]

plugin version + bukkit version

If i may suggest some new default town/nation levels. I know Great Metropolis kinda sucks, but i couldnt figure a proper name for that. Lord is typically the lowest noble rank or unspecific and can be used to address various nobles of various ranks so i put it first.

Code:

townLevel:
- 0,, Ruin,Spirit ,,1
- 1,, (Hermitage),Hermit,,16
- 2,, (Settlement),Pioneer ,,32
- 3,, (Hamlet),Elder ,,48
- 5,, (Village),Chief ,,80
- 8,, (Small Town),Governor ,,128
- 10,, (Town),Lord ,,160
- 12,, (Large Town),Baron ,,192
- 15,, (Small City),Viscount ,,240
- 18,, (City),Earl ,,288
- 22,, (Large City),Marquess ,,352
- 26,, (Metropolis),Duke ,,416
- 30,, (Great Metropolis),Grand Duke ,,480
nationLevel:
- 0,Lands of , (Nation),,,Leader ,
- 10,Federation of , (Nation),,,High Leader ,
- 20,Dominion of , (Nation),,,Grand Leader ,
- 30,Kingdom of , (Nation),,,Pince ,
- 40,The , Empire,,,King ,
- 50,The , Realm,,,Emperor ,

I know why you can't change your townblock, it's conflicting with your own. You need to go to your home block and "/town unclaim" to remove it, then go use the set home command on your new home block. When you've done that be sure to use "/town set spawn" to set your spawn in the new home block.

The mobs sounds like your config is an old dev config. Like Elgarl said, post your bukkit/towny build numbers, and I'd like to request you pastebin.com your config.yml.

I redesigned the townlevels/nationlevels for my own server, and those were made into the defaults in use now.
I'm pretty certain Lord is above everything else. The only thing I fibbed on is I added Counts, which are a germanic thing that you don't find in British Heirarchy. Or maybe it was the Baron Von one. Love seeing that one in game.

Also you've got Pince in there, and I think you'll want to test those, looks like Hermit might be missing a space.

Is there a page anywhere for Questioner 0.4? Maybe i'm just tired but i can't seem to find one.

No thread, the download link is in the OP.

Why is it that every time Towny fails to load resident/town data, it disables itself? It should be like the old one and load anyway.

I may not understand the entire programming thing, but to me, sounds like if a mod was missing key config files it's probably best for your world to not have that plugin running.

Or instead of accumulating more and more defective files, you could fix the files that it says are wrong.

If the error doesn't give a specific file then you've got a bunch that are messed up.

Thanks for the Townblock way...it fixed it.
And here are my config.yml and town.txt for the mobs. I tried doing the /town ... toggle thingy but it didnt work.

I am using Towny v0.72.1 + 953 bukkit.

Thanks

Could you explain what it is / does?

mobs=true needs to be false in your world file. It's not a block flag, it's a permit flag in the world files.
Or toggle it in game.

"Lord" isn't a rank - it's a description/honorific, and its basic meaning is "person having authority". It includes all five ranks of the British peerage: in descending order: Duke, Marquess, Earl, Viscount, Baron.

BUT, it can also describe a variety of other kinds of people who are not nobility at all. For instance, a man who lets property to tenants, or who runs a pub, is a "land-lord", and a man who owns certain archaic property rights in a manor is called "lord of the manor".

And yes there was a missing space for hermit

Also, i was wondering about town chat, would it be possible to make it so that only /tc switches you to that chat and all text you send after goes to town until you do /tc again.

You could also make it so that while on main or town chat, using /tc text will send it to the chat you are not on. Like if you are always on town chat but need to reply to something on main without wanting to swap channels.

Thanks ElgarL

Can't seem to get Mayors to have a diff tag than "Mayor playername"-- I want to change it to "[Mayor] Playername" or the like, but all efforts have failed...

Here's my config file: http://pastebin.com/FDG66AYj
(It's basically default, I reset it in frustration while trying to get it to work)

So, what do I need to do in order to change said tag for Mayors?

Sorry, but you appear to be wrong. I have a 1-resident town, this in my town levels: - '1,,,,,20' and it still whacks "Town" on the end of the name.

Towny doesn't seem to be reading my town level data at all, in fact. Which is worrying when you have 30+ member towns with 1300 out of 66 town blocks.

Try using /resident set mode tc
or /resident set mode townchat

If that works I think you'll have to use /resident set mode reset to turn it off.

Can't really use /tc to toggle back to the main chat because there is also /nc

For me it seems to slap "Mayor" on every Mayor's names even though I specifically tried to change the config...

All town level data seems to be not read for me either to be honest...

Hello,
I have a qeustion
can you make 2 more options in your config?
I wanne a config to set on all towns fire and explosions on.
So town mayors cant change it.

That's going to be added, to flesh out different war modes.

Do you have a answer on why the name format for Mayors can't be changed even though that's a stated feature?

I'd like to do some testing today with ElgarL and look that over.

I have an issue.
A member type /t unclaim all
This unclaimed all the land in the city. Now when we type /t set homeblock we get 'Not registered'. And if we type /t claim it says it needs to connect to claimed area

Any fix for this without making a new town?

Thank you, fixed for next release.

Issue filed.

and set the plot price to a negative number, say -100000
then plot forsale
then plot claim
the town bank becomes -1000000
and the player gets 100000 for claiming the plot


Have fun fixing. :|

nevermind, issue filed.

This is fixed for next release.

It would be awesome if it would give you a tag once you join a town. It would be awesome to be able to tell who's in who's town
