Similar to plugins like Towny, we wanted to create a simplified version of the plugin that lets players decide how they want to play instead of the server's owners/admins controlling everything.
Basically, a play can pay money to create a village (if economy is used, otherwise it's free) at the chunk they're standing on, and invite players. Players can only be invited to a single village, the residents can then deposit money into the village which the mayor can spend to expand the village.
So far the plugin is fairly basic, we wanted to put it on Bukkit, see how it goes and if you people like it, I'll add more stuff, you can comment what you'd like to see added below if you wish.
Some of the ideas that may be implemented in the future:
Regions, which may have one or more Villages in them
Wars between Villages and/or regions
Anti Griefing, stealing etc on Villages
Configuration
Configuration is pretty straight forward, but here's a rehash for those who mightn't understand.
Worlds:
- World
- World_nether
- World_the_end sql: username: root password: password host: localhost database: minecraft port: 3306 use: false economy: true colors: prefix: '&3[&bVillages&3]' error: '&c' default: '&3' important: '&b' cost: createvillage: 1000.0 expand: 50.0 townborder: 1 messages: entervillage: true leavevillage: true
Worlds: List of worlds the plugin is enabled in, I found it annoying that Towny didn't have specific world options. sql: SQL options (SQL is optional, you can use just YML instead). Basic options are username, password, host, database and port for the SQL server, or if you want, you can just use YML. economy: Whether or not to use economy (requires Vault) colors: Change the colors of the messages sent, This is to make it a little easier for the configuration of all the village messages. cost: Cost to do things in the plugin, create villages and how much to expand the village. TownBorder: how many chunks around the edge of the town is unclaimable by another town. Messages:
entervillage: Whether to get a message when you enter a village
leavevillage: Whether or not to get a message when you leave a village (and enter the wilderness)
