Towny FAQ
What is Towny?
Towny is essentially a plugin that allows for the management of land and protection of goods. With a built-in economy system, Towny allows players to work together or against however they want. (You can find more details about this plugin here!)
How does it work?
Towny uses many aspects of player-progression during gameplay, such as ranks, jobs, custom items and much more, adding everything together creates a community driven economy where players can acquire items from other players and co-operate towards similar ideals.

- You can set tax for residents of your town, you can do so by running the command /t set tax (amount) [this will be the daily amount of taxes removed from player’s balance]
- When a town is created, there is an initial limit of 8* plots able to be claimed, however, that limit can be increased through crate rewards, joining a nation and ranking up.
- You may create outposts that are outside of your town, these outposts takes plot slots and costs money to upkeep just like normal plots, the only differences between outposts and towns is that outposts are not attached to the plots of the original town, and that there are a limit on how many outposts there can be per town.
