Towny Basics

What is a Town?

A Town is a player created community that can claim chunks to protect them from other players. The player who creates the town becomes the Mayor. The Mayor can claim Wilderness chunks to turn them into protected town land.

Role	Description
Mayor	Founder and administrator of the town
Resident	Player who joins a town

Claimed land protects:

Against non-residents building or breaking blocks
Access to chests, doors, and containers

Town Bank

Each town has its own Town Bank used to manage the town's economy and pay for land, stewards, and nation taxes. Anyone can deposit money into the bank, even non-residents.
Bank commands:

Deposit: /t deposit [amount] [town name]
Withdraw: /t withdraw [amount]
View history: /t bankhistory

Withdraw permissions:

Mayor
Co-Mayor
Deputy Mayor

Creating and Managing Your Town

Creating a Town

To create a town, you must have 300⌾ in your personal bank, then head to spawn, /spawn.
1. Hire an Architect from Lord Crowley at spawn.

2. Lead the Architect to your desired location, it must be 128 blocks (8 chunks) away from another town.
3. Right-click the Architect and select "Create Town".

4. The chunk you stand in becomes the homeblock, and your exact position becomes the town spawn.

To change town spawn or homeblock:

Set spawn: /t set spawn
Set homeblock: /t set homeblock

To rename, invite, leave, kick commands:

Rename town: /t set name [new name]
Invite: /t add [username]
Leave: /t leave
Kick: /t kick [username]

ActiveUpkeep System

ActiveUpkeep replaces the default Towny upkeep. Instead of requiring money to sustain your town, players must now remain active to keep it thriving. A variety of in-game actions contribute to a player’s individual activity score.

Activity Decay

Every player has an activity score that fluctuates based on their daily engagement, players must reach the activity threshold to be considered an active member of a town.

The maximum score you can achieve far exceeds the threshold, allowing you to “bank” activity for a period of time. However your score will decay over time and will decrease faster the longer you haven’t played but slower if you have been consistently active.

Inactivity Effects

Towns are sustained through the activity of their residents. If all members of a town become inactive, the town will begin an inactivity countdown. Inactivity Timeline:

When a town has no active residents, it is marked as inactive.
If the town remains inactive for 4 consecutive days, it will be automatically removed from its nation.
This serves as a warning sign that the town is no longer active.
If the town remains inactive for an additional 3 days, bringing the total to 7 consecutive days, it will enter into ruin.

Monitoring Inactivity: Players can check their own or others' activity using: /activity or /activity [username]
