Villages
PLEASE READ THIS
This video below sums up what's happening with Villages (and all my other plugins) and most likely a lot of other plugins, this is just my two cents and I would appreciate if you would watch this video.
What is it?
Similar to plugins like Towny, We wanted to create a simplified version, more of the, let the player decide, rather than letting the plugin or an administrator decide.
How it works
Basically, a player can pay money to create a village (if economy is used, or simply 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.
Due to some recent Bukkit changes I have to point out that this plugin checks for updates using the Curse API, and you can disable this feature at any time if you wish, simply check under the configuration page for the update setting and how to disable it.
Future plans
So far the plugin is fairly basic, I 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 basic ideas I have now are:
- Regions, which may have one or more Villages in them
- Wars between Villages and/or regions

http://dev.bukkit.org/paste/8940/ get this huge error from not having domsplugin, anyway to remove it from console? thanks
Again, just updated the plugin to v2.15, sorry about two updates soo close together but I added a few features you've been requesting for a while now,
Changes:
Just updated the plugin to v2.14 Changes:
@MythicCynic
Sorry about the chat instances, this was a bug due to an update, if you clear your messages.yml file and download the latest version of the plugin, it should work.
As for Village maps, I want to add this feature, but due to some Bukkit 1.7 changes coming soon I'm gonna hold off on this until I know more and can prepare for it
And I have added the bypass permission in the new update, I had actually forgot to do that when progressing from Villages v1.31 to 2.00
And finally, the issue tracker will be down permanently, I'll see about getting my own Tracker setup but since Jordan was hosting it, it's his hosting
Note to those using SQL, during this time when bukkit is changing from IDs to Materials and what not, there may be a point where a Database reset will occur, I will make this information available when I know more, I apologise in advance but 1.7 has some very big changes incoming and I'm trying to smooth it out as much as possible
Along with your plans can you make all chat instances functional by default? Half of the time we just see a lot of %<somethinghere>% in our chat for a lot of things that occur. Additionally it would be nice to see a bypass permission for admins to toggle on so that they can build in other peoples villages. Currently the village protection can be bypassed with world edit or voxel sniper but it is still a royal pain sometimes when I have to do stuff in other people's areas. It would also be neat (if even possible) to get maps that can show multiple village borders and highlight where conflicts occur because my village constantly complained it would intersect with someone else's whenever I tried to expand it despite no one for thousands of blocks in any direction (I flew around looking for the chat to tell me i changed areas and got nothing.
The issue tracker won't open for me which is why i am posting this here
@lyzha
You can change the wilderness preifx easily by changing colors.prefix.wilderness to just '' e.g.:
@lyzha
I'll add this, but there aren't any real Village ranks yet, just Mayor and Not Mayor (though I have plans ;) )
And also can you make a thing for guys who haven't got any village apear like [] (an empty brackets] and no [Wilderness] it's just an option to add in the config.
Hai dude can you add in the chat a thing for show the rank of the person in the village for essentials (exemple mayor,citizen,co-mayor ect...) Like that '{rank} {VILLAGE}{DISPLAYNAME} : {MESSAGE}' for essentials
Thanks Lyzha Continue doing awesome work
As the forums for Villages and our other projects got cluttered with spam, I've reset the entire thing. If you had an account there (I don't think many of you did) it's likely that it's been removed. Sorry for any issues.
@lyzha
Nope, it'll only use the scoreboards in all village worlds, or not at all.. I'll see if I can maybe add this as a feature also, but may involve permissions
@Daisy_Power
The only way a chunk can be un-claimed is by the Village admin commands.. I'll see about unclaiming as I also need to fix up village deletion money returns
I have looked through all the commands and not found a way to unclaim a chunk for a Village. Is this possible and if not, can it be added? I love the simplicity of the plugin. Good work!
Thanks
Daisy
@DOMIN8TRIX25 Thanks men i'm waiting for the update I have got an other question : Can i disable the scoreboard in a specific world ? Thanks lyzha
@lyzha
To disable taxes on the scoreboard you can just turn features.lists.taxday to false in the config.yml file, as for stopping villages getting deleted, there's no way to stop this yet, however I will add a config feature in the next update to stop this
Thanks
~Dom
Hai dude how can i disable the taxes
Thanks Lyzha
@DOMIN8TRIX25
thx for your answer.
I might start using this when bukkit releases 1.7.X .
@dutchy1001
Not at the moment, if you're lucky enough to still be on 1.6.4. you can use the /village map to get an idea of village borders, but it will only work for your Village. I'll work on some Village identifying tool soon.
@DOMIN8TRIX25
is there a way it can show village borders like you can do in Grief Prefention with a stick/wand?
Had to update the plugin to version 2.13, fixed a problem with item storing, this is a Major bug fix! make sure you update immediately!
@05262001
Whenever Bukkit 1.7.2 comes out, you'll have to check on their updates, as soon as Bukkit 1.7 comes out I will make sure Villages is fully updated and ready.
@MineCraftler4Live
There may be a few reasons that protection isn't working, firstly it may be working, but if you have the permission node that bypasses protection it'll appear to not be working. If you're the mayor of the Village you will bypass protections anyway, try getting someone else to make a Village then see if you can break in it, if protections still aren't working, check your configuration settings and make sure that you have protection.grief.village.break set to false (To Block breaking in Villages)
@DOMIN8TRIX25
No. i tested the plugin in singelplayer (on my homeserver) and there i can build anywere. if i install the plugin EssentialsProtect. i cant build anywere. and if i have the permission essentials.* i can build anywere. but i want, that i only can build in my town. how i protect the rest of the world ?
