The ability to buy land in this game is very limited, you can only buy one square at a time. It really doesn't seem so bad untill you need to prevent a town from expanding, or reserving a little something for yourself. This patch should clear a lot of this up. The first feature, is the capability of a user, or server admin to disable the users ability to buy land at all. This will make a server completely invulnerable to that stupid thing people do (aka buying land around your newly built station). No more abuse of this feature. the next feature, probably the coolest, is the ability to buy land in chunks by dragging and dropping. The limit (or none at all) can be changed from within the advanced settings. No limit is simply achieved by disabling "enable restrictive land buying." If the option is set however the limit will be determined by the next setting. The great thing, is the default for these settings will result in the land buying process we're used to today, one square at a time.
I am aware of the other patches designed for exactly this purpose. However, I assume each one will eventually become obsolete. I think we need to add this, so no one will need to reinvent this patch once over again.
Once again, the typical user will see no difference...
