A problem with allocating permissions (possible bug)

[Noble_King8]

Two members of the township Mystic currently cannot be allocated any permissions inside of town boundaries (Bluekitty and myself).

It is to our understanding that /town region add <player> is no longer recognizing the township name as the "region," whereas it previously had been. No promotion or attempted command will grant permissions to town members, according to Pinatagirl7 (the mayor of the Mystic Hamlet).

This is a problem for our week-old hamlet, because it is very difficult to do construction with only two players with the permissions to construct within city limits. Neither Bluekitty nor I, or any new recruits that may be added later, can or will be able to do anything in the township without permissions.

Are we using the wrong command, or is this a bug with recognizing townships?

I would happily admit that I've misread/misconstrued the whole situation if a working solution was given.

Much appreciation in advance,
- Noble

At what point did the region disappear?

 

[WitchOnaRampage]

The command is:

/town region add guest [town name] [player name]

The commands for adding players to regions are on the following wiki page link, and as I write this they're in the 3rd section titled "Subregions". However over the next few hours I'll restructure the page to make things clearer.

So if that command doesn't work for you, of course it's back to @Kainzo to find out whether there is actually a problem with your region.

> Players added to the overall town region will have access to ALL areas of the town.

- From the wikipedia page you linked

> /town region add guest [town name] [player name]

- This command, according to Pinatagirl7, did not work. The wiki page is more clear, though.

I think the command isn't recognizing the town as an overall region. That seems to be the problem.

I don't think there was any region to begin with, just an overall region. The command doesn't recognize the town as an overall region.

Is this a situation where the town needs to be reclaimed? @Danda ?

 

[PinataGirl7]

@Kainzo so when I use this command /town region add manager Mystic Noble_King8
It says: Can not find region by the name:Mystic
It will not allow anyone else either.

@Osmodian

Please describe the issues you are having as well, as I believe they are similar to this one. I believe you said this happened to you last Monday/Tuesday?

(See Shrine pe#166)

 

[PinataGirl7]

@Kainzo It isn't that the region disappeared, it is still protected, its simply not recognizing the whole town as a region in the command.

I'll ask again... when did this START happening? If we are to restore from backup I need a date.

 

[PinataGirl7]

@Kainzo about 9 days ago I believe

Yup, we're having what may be a similar problem. Tried to create a town in Shrine, initially Chartered it last Monday or Tuesday. Soon as the members relogged however, they were booted from the town. So we can't check the townbank or finalize the town creation process. All of the town resources had been donated to the Town Bank, except for the 5k souls for the final fee (which I've had ready to go since the town was initially chartered)...

So we've been stuck in Limbo, unable to finalize the town creation or access any commands. We just get the 'you are not part of a town' message with everything we try. Delve is still listed on the towns in Shrine, we simply can't access anything...

Also, a side-note that there was a grief-protected road World-Edited in right next to where we've been excavating/preparing to build the town soon after I chartered the town (by a day or two). Literally, it's about 50 blocks from the town center... The road has the usual grief-protection, but I'm not sure if it will interfere by overlapping the town radius in an unexpected way... I don't mind too much, Shrine could use some help becoming more easily travelled, but it is a bit annoying to have premade roads copy/pasted into the game right next to us...

Sounds like you need to chat to @Alator :

Thanks for the link =]

It sounds like we may be attempting to remake the town next restart, suppose we'll see if we continue to have the same problem after that.

 

[Danda]

sounds like it witch, I'll check the town files later when I have a chance.

 

[PinataGirl7]

@Kainzo @Danda The perms still can't be given, I'm checking if anything has been looked into or done?Our townies would like to be able to cover their own chests and to help build.If you could force perms upon them or if we need to reclaim it.Thanks.

Danda solved the issue earlier with a /town claim command.
