September Notes (8.0.0)

[GodOfGales]

-- Disabled "chests" from the list of action blocks, they can now be opened in Towny Advanced claims.

A little confused here, does this mean only town members can access chests within a town? Probably not, but thought I'd ask anyway

Negative, it means they arent in the "use" flag toggle anymore.

/town spawn should just be disabled, that's what marking and recalling are for. People are just getting lazy now and walking less which means less interaction outside of towns. Needs to be more hardcore, if you walk across the map you better have redstone to recall or else your out of luck and have to walk back to town which means increased player interaction on the walk back.

I disagree in removing it.
Although it removes some travel, it's really only gaining two advantages over the last map, graveyard recalls and allowing you to use your mark for something other then your "home". I am not sure how you are not forced to walk around the map anymore, but I am still running all over the place non stop even with /town and /recall. I suppose if you are only ever in your town and at spawn then this would happen, but any raiding, resource gathering, dungeoneering or exploring still require the same amount to running around.

Recall in the past has never been anything but a home button, but why even have recall if it's only ever been a /home? This change allows players to actually use mark to mark something they have interest in, while still maintaining their "home."
Out of graveyard only hurts one set of players, merchants who want to sell Redstone on the edges of a graveyard, otherwise this change allows players that were killed during a raid to actually get back to their town and requip and helps prevent graveyard camping of any players that are in a township. Both or which are good things for the server IMO.

Although your suggestion does create a more "hardcore" experience, it does not make a "better hardcore" experience, and in fact would reduce both PvP and QoL for most players.

I don't really care if it is kept in or removed but I want to add to the conversation that it also hurts Runesmith's business a little bit.

Taking ideas for Crate 3 Rewards

Taking ideas for Crate 3 Rewards

Maybe something like this in a pack of like 5? Or is it maybe too insignificant for a crate or obsolete with the current higher population of the server?

I like how you mention my name when I do not own it and also do not worry about it, its being taken care of

I didn't look at the plot owner, I /cinfo'd the chest and one was yours. Since you're a Guide/Proctor, I thought knowing the updated rules would be of importance to you. Also, I'll worry about whatever I want to, thanks though.

8.0.6
- Added Mayor & Council permission for Prism (prism.lookup.paginate)

Please give Prism use to second-in-command as well.

A little confused here, does this mean only town members can access chests within a town? Probably not, but thought I'd ask anyway

Negative, it means they arent in the "use" flag toggle anymore.

I understand this means that town managers can no longer toggle

The perm was granted to both, I need someone to test, i may need to grant more than just pagination.

 

[Kainzo]

- Hopefully adjusted LWC's config to respect Towny Advanced
- You may lock things that only town-mates can use, ex. /cprivate town:TownName or /cprivate t:TownName (@WitchOnaRampage this may be important for Wiki)

Does this mean that the township names will work as groups with player detectors now as well?
