Current Forum Thread: Towny Advanced
Recent History
I am no longer the lead developer for the Towny plugin. Thanks to Fuzz for picking it up when I slipped off.
There are two forks from then on. Croxis the current lead programmer on a more experimental version that combines the features of Spout, event based API, and attempted to move the database to SQL . You can find his fork here, and the plugin download here. The old thread on the forums can be found here. Note: This fork has fallen out of development.
The other fork is done by ElgarL, called Towny Advanced. His version continues, and builds on where I left off and adds tons of new features and bugfixes. If you desire a more stable (usually) version, use his fork. The current source code can be found on GitHub here.
I’ve recently been helping ElgarL (and Llmdl) with Towny Advanced. Mostly small stuff.
What is Towny?
Towny is a plugin for a Bukkit modded Minecraft server. The plugin itself is a manager for a Resident-Town-Nation hierarchy, as well as a block permission manager for a grid-like protection system. Each town has a mayor, while a nation has a king. They both have their own assistants to help run their respective people. Players can also purchase land from the town, for a daily tax set by the mayor. The player can allow his friends from out of town to build on his land when even his very own town’s people can’t build if he so wishes.
The bases of protection follows under how the world is seperated into chunks. For those unaware, minecraft servers are broken up into 16x16x128 sections of blocks. The 128 being the height from the adimantium floor to the clouds in the sky. The protection ignores the height an focuses on the x and z planes. The default size for grid squares is 16×16, similar to the chunk size (no real reason). So claiming townblock (a grid square) allows that section of land to follow your town’s or the plot owner’s permissions.
Each town can claim up to a certain amount of townblocks, a set ratio or amount configured in the setting that is relative to the amount of players taking residence in that town. Residents themselves have no limit on how many they claim, however the daily tax (when using alongside iConomy) will take a bite out of their resources. The money is tunneled to the town’s bank account that only the mayor can withdraw from, except if the town belongs to a nation. Any town belonging to a nation is required to pay the nation a daily upkeep as well.
To the right you can see an example of 3 towns using the grid structure. Each cell represents 16×16 blocks (and 128 blocks high of course).
hello
Hi
Did Shade used to have a SAMP server? (San Andreas Multi Player)
I used to have a server. Not located or named after San Andreas though.
does this townt version work for anyone? when trying to expand and claim plots it just says do not have enough blocks when only claimed 1. also when use /town it just gives internal error.
Odd, can you http://pastie.org the internal error shown in the console?
I get the same error when trying to create a new town.
Fabulous plug-in. Can’t play with-out it.
Is there any way to restrict potion use in towns? We have had a major problem with people using them to grief livestock.
Erm, nope. Add a ticket to the issue tracker here: http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/towny/
it says i cannot make a town because i cant afford it?? BUT IM ADMIN lol how do i start out with money?????
Give yourself money?
if this is the real towny makers site (or not):
were can i get the code the java codes?
I’m the founding developer, but the code can be found at the google code site: http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/towny/
you have to give you money
then you can make a town
just use /money
to see how much you have
i dont know how to give money im not a admin
but admins can change the price of a town
Eh? /money is used by your economy plugin, not Towny.
/money set town-blarg 6796 (What admins use probably)
/money [view?] town-blarg (view just your town’s bank).
what are the towny ranks and titles
ive got:
Settlement-Hermit
Hamlet-Propreiter
Village-Cheif
Town-Mayor
Borough-Maire
Metroplis-Lord
Can someone please tell me the remaing titles and names of town
thx
config.yml …set price_new_town: ’0.0′ ….
Is there a future possibility of having spaces between the plots that belong to the town. This would allow paths between the plots allowing the towns to be more set out. I think an option in the config file that specifies how many blocks free between plots could work. I am no java scripter though, so I don’t know if it is even possible. Thanks anyway.
Why can’t you implement a selection system as well, so you can pre-define cities. That would make it easier to set-up a city for members that don’t want to make their own.
Options to add to that would be, disabling chunk claiming for a pre-defined city. Creating plots for rent within a town would also be a good feature since selling land to someone really doesn’t get much income.
if u guys want to see this plugin in full action go to minecraft2u.com and look for the server ips when u get on one our servers you will probably see the towny plugin unless there a problems at the time
The First Problem Is That In The Wildness People Cant Destroy Block But They Get The Item Anyway, And They Keep Doing It To the Same Block ????
My Second Problem Is That People Cant Destroy In The Wildness ??
Heres my groupmanager

Towny

You have to give them some permissions!
Try giving whoever you want to build in the wild the “towny.wild.*” node.
Why is towny still 1.1? when is it going to update?
Version 80 should work with 1.2. The dev builds have been working with 1.2 since it came out, however ElgarL hasn’t pushed a released build for it as it wasn’t a Recommended Build for Craftbukkit till only recently.
i dont know were else to post this i have been looking online for like 2 days now and i cant figure it out or find anything. im trying to get the towny plugin to work and i cant get anyone able to creat towns other than admins, when they type /town new name it says “that command is admin only” or somthing like that. is this the problem and if so what do i do? sorry my first sever so i dont know what to do and cant find anything about this anywhere else. if anyone can actually skype call me at acid9601 that can help setup this it would be GREATLY appreciated, can even prolly throw in some real money :p
# these will be moved to permissions nodes at a later date
permissions:
town_creation_admin_only: ‘false’
nation_creation_admin_only: ‘false’
oh and it also says when i try to invite someone to town “user is not permitted to join a town” for everyone. =( so confused
/town create [name] [mayor] = admin command/town create [name] = player command (with you as mayor)
town_creation_admin_only: ‘false’ = You must be an townyadmin to create a town. Set it to true if you want players to make towns (do the same with nations).
There should be a permission node nowadays that players need to have to be applicable to join a town. Erm, according to the wiki it’s:
towny.town.resident : User is able to join a town.
Hey, I am admin of the server Legendcraft, and i need to know how to set large regions where people can’t build
can i get a link to download Towny 1.1
Hey there. I had to downgrade my towny inorder it to work for my craft bukkit because the new one wont let me use some of my plugins.
Everytime I install Towny, My players are not able to see what Im typing to them. Only OP can see my messages.
What can I do?
Кто знает как настроить плагин Towny помогите пожалуйста мой Skype belog81

Hello just wondering when you are updating towny from 1.2.5 to 1.3.1
Thanks
Me gustaa ;d
do both towns have to agree to war? or can i just attack someone and war be in affect
How do you get money when you first start because I am trying to make a nation/town and it says I can’t afford to make this town.
If you are just a player of the server, you need to ask owner or admin or someone how to get money.
i need mayor command help!
how u give ass. all permissions mayor haz besides /t set mayor???
Do ‘/t mayor’
Is this the plugin that you can do ‘/t add [User]‘ and ‘/t claim?’
Because I’d like to add that plugin to my future server.

how do i fix this so towny will work on my server
so i just made a parkour in my town on a server that uses this plugin, but people always cheat with enderpearls
is there a way i can toggle the use of enderpearls off on a plot? if not please make it possible, i don’t think it can hurt anyone…
When people quit the town can you make it so mayors can unlock their chests/doors etc because it’s extremely annoying when residents leave the town without warning and leave all their locked stuff behind.
