Inactive [SEC/FUN/INFO] Towny v0.59 - Resident/Town/Nation hierarchy + Grid Based Protection [531]

I really have no idea whats happening dude, it sounds like a conflict with another plugin. Are you getting console errors? Nobody else is reporting any real game breaking issues, definitely nothing this bad...

Legionarius:

Thats a bug that started in CB617, if you upgrade to 657 or 658, it's been fixed. It affects all spawns, not just /town spawn.

Seems to have fixed the chunk errors. Now WTF is up with these invisible/invulnerable slimes lol!

Code:

can u help me with this? i dont know what to do

First off Fuzze, you are a gentleman and a scholar and I hereby give you 5 free internets!

So that this doesn't get burried, here is the link to the Bukkit 617 version http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2798684/Towny_v61Fuzzev5_CB617.zip

OK now, before I go installing this, has anyone else tested this and can offer some insight in to Legionarius' problem (of chunk errors on spawn sites?) All the other plug ins I have are stable with Bukkit 617 so I don't want to update to a newer version of Bukkit until I really need to. Is this chunk error thing a fairly rare occurrence or have others had this problem, too?

The chunk loading sounds like it might be lag. We had one town that had issues with its plots (it was called Kul'Grath, and some update stopped the use of ' so I think that was the cause) but all other towns have been fine.


+ I did see the 1.4 update, its the later update I nearly missed


RELATED:
Does anyone know how to edit the use of /town spawn ? Ideally, we want only residents of the town to be able to use it, but at worst we will remove it completely. had a problem today of a few players using the town spawn to tele to an enemy town and attack...

Dont know how this is possible? Town spawn should teleport you to whatever town you are a resident in...not only that but non residents cant break or PVP typically....so....not sure what happened?

Nooby question: can I allow users to be residents of several towns?

No. Because of the way town size is based on resident count.

I'm having some issues with protections - Town protections are down globally for everyone, but town modes, like PVP off, are working fine. Using Fuzz's build on 617. have Permissions/iConomy/LWC/WorldEdit/WorldGuard installed.

It might be a configuration issue, but I'm not sure where to start. Any advice would be appreciated.

they can type, for example /town spawn Polaris - it tele's them to the town of Polaris.
Also we have a load of Races set on our server, so very few players use Melee, they're attacking eachother with spells and such so protection and PVP doesn't count for it...

@FuzzeWuzze i have found a bug which causes the servers to crash which is /towny top money and this crashes the server and it has to be brute stopped too! Please fix

But it doesn't conflict with being a member in several towns, i think. My towns are suppose to be thematic (China, Space, Rome etc), and if you can build only in one town - it sucks

Aint there a way to disable the sign board? its so irritating and i cant find it in the config. And i still wanna be able to view when i go to the wilderness so i cant disable town notifications either...

Think its under essentials disable-signboard = false or somthing

Under the "Permissions" spoiler tag thingy in the original post it mentions this one:
towny.publicspawntp : Use "/town spawn [town]" (teleport to other towns) when allow_town_spawn_travel=false.

I think that is what you need to tinker with (either removing 'towny.publicspawntp' for the Permissions group those users are in or setting allow_town_spawn_travel=false in the main config file.) In other words, I think it is just a settings thing not a 'broken' thing

I have a fresh server with Bukkit 617, Minecraft 1.4_01, and about 10 plugins (like Permissions, mcmmo, and Runecraft) and I just set up towny off FuzzeWuzze's build here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2798684/Towny_v61Fuzzev5_CB617.zip

I set up a time at the spawn area with me (the server admin) as the mayor and I 'gave' myself some coins and then deposited them in to the town's account. When I ran /towny top money it did not error out and returned more or less what I expected, something like: "[Top Bank Accounts] PhoenixHaven Hamlet : 4,730 Coin Qanthelas : 80 Coin" (spread out over 3 lines.)

So, basically, the /towny top money command is not hopelessly broken (at least not for me.) I'm wondering if perhaps you have some towns with characters in their names that have since been 'banned' (like someone above had posted about a town named Kul'Grath.) Can you give us some more information to help you out? Posting your plugins/towny/settings/config/properties file by copying all the text and pasting it here on the forums inside code tags ([code and [/code with the ] at the end of each) would be a good place to start, at least Also, if you have any error logs from the console or anywhere else for that matter, post those, too

Well nuts, on a related note, is there some sort of config file for towny? To install on my server all I did copy/paste in the .jar file from Fuzze's .zip file (so I ignored the 'source' folder) over to my server's plugins folder. I think there is supposed to be some sort of file around for editing the upkeep amounts and fun stuff like that. Where is it?

EDIT: Well, nuts again, reading http://www.xshade.ca/towny/configuration I see that there is indeed supposed to be a /plugins/Towny/settings/config.properties but my server didn't generate that (so far as I can tell.) Any ideas? (Honestly, I'm a bit surprised Towny even works without that file.)

EDIT after the EDIT: Ahha! I downloaded the version of towny from the original post, stopped my server, overwrote Fuzze's towny.jar file with the shade towny.jar, fired the server up, and bam! It made the towny folder (inside the plugin folder) and filled it with all the good stuff like the config.properties file So, might want to not that new users will have to do that sort of process. I'm going to throw all this in spoiler tags to set this little tangent apart

Any reports on success with latest rb #670?

So we got towny running and everything is fine, only that nobody has permission to /town claim and expand their town! How do i fix this? Thanks.

"[Towny] You do not have permission to expand your town."

Sigh yea i just saw this, expect a new build in abit if they didnt change too much

*EDIT*
Here it is for 670 for you updating quick to get around this apparent exploit.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2798684/Towny_v61Fuzzev5_CB670.zip

Thanks Fuzze, you a good guy.

P.S. is it possible for an admin to make a town and leave it, for example
Main Town -> = Admin Made, but he wants to be a neutral player and join another town,

Will that town fall into ruin or how can it be made so it doesn't fall into ruin?

Cheers.

Hey this is actually a great idea, I might try it out. Thanks for the reply.

To solve that problem when the world started i simply changed the Town block size to 8x8 and modified the claim price

It seems that after upgrading to 0.61 with CB #617, the plot borders seem to have been shifted one block over. In some towns, the plot boundary is 1 block to the East and in another town its 1 block to the North (confirmed via Towny map and the fact that one wall of one resident now belong to the resident who owns an adjacent plot).

Can you think of what may have caused the shift? Is it some kind of rounding error with the coordinate system Towny is using or something else? Any suggestions for a fix would be appreciated (and thanks for fixing Towny for 1.4 while Shadeness is MIA).

shade said this might happen in one of his posts. it was a bug he had introduced early on that affected every plot in the
negative coord ranges or 3/4 of them
he said he wasn't going to fix that particular bug

Since the new Recommended Build for Bukkit is out (as of not very long ago at all, like an hour or something) I have updated my server and I'm posting on the threads for all the plug ins I use to let people know how the plug ins are doing. I won't be able to fully test everything (it is almost midnight my time and I need to sleep ) but I figure this way we can at least get things started

In the logs, here is all I have (after just firing up the server) for Towny:

Code:

2011-04-08 07:45:22 [INFO] [Towny] Database: [Load] flatfile [Save] flatfile
2011-04-08 07:45:22 [INFO] [Towny] Using: Permissions, iConomy
2011-04-08 07:45:22 [INFO] [Towny] Version: 0.61 - Mod Enabled

Note that this is using FuzzeWuzze's 617 release: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2798684/Towny_v61Fuzzev5_CB617.zip

/towny map and /town (while standing in my town) show just as I'd expect them to (the claimed land and bank balances are still there) so that's a good sign. I'll fiddle with that 670 release you posted Fuzze, but I'm gonna go to bed for now In any case, even the 617 release seems to work just fine in 670 (but that's with only very basic testing.)

Note: This is what the log says about the Bukkit version, for those who want to know: 2011-04-08 07:45:20 [INFO] This server is running Craftbukkit version git-Bukkit-0.0.0-646-gb61ef8c-b670jnks (MC: 1.4)

And i get a crash when running /towny top money, but other towny top commands like land and residents work! Please help

FuzzeWuzze, weve stumbled over a bug (using CB617 and Fuzzev4) when you try to found a town with a name that is allready taken. A plot appears thats named "~null", the money gets deducted via iConomy but the player is not member of that void place! Fortunatly it didnt do any real harm but I had to restart the server to get rid of it. A check for existing names would be very helpful, imo.

Maybe Ive overseen it but may it be possible to log the money transfers from founding and claiming, too?

Thanks for your dedication you put into towny! You really rock!
Keep up the good work!

@FuzzeWuzze Could you please update for the new build 670 it loads no problem, but towns have weird output for town protections

(b=--- d=--- s=--- i=---)

Also appears players can destroy but not place blocks

Fuzze any chance you can fork this over to a new post since you seem to be maintaining it so well, would make the life of admins updating this plugin much more simplistic. I think the majority of the community would also appreciate that.
