ResidenceSigns

Version 2.10.0 is out now!

(Download may be delayed due to approval time)

Instead of making your players use "/res market rent Town.HouseName", allow your players to right click signs to rent and buy land, or put down signs to set up renting or selling with the Residence mod.

Language Change

Version 2.5: 7/31/2012

• Fixed the issue with the NullPointerErrors spamming on the automatic sign update system. For some reason occassionally blocks were calling an NPE when trying to acquire their State. The sign will now remove itself from the Plugin.
  - NOTE: This will not as of this moment remove the ACTUAL sign as its pulling an NPE for the block, I will have a fix for this in a later update.
  
• Fixed the issue with sometimes ResSigns calling NPE's when trying to acquire the Residences AutoRepeat variable. Thank you Bekvon for fixing this.
  - NOTE: This MAY require the Dev version of Residence as the fix is not actually live but implemented in their current Dev build.
  
• Added the "Sold" variable for the Alternative Language System.
  - NOTE: YOU WILL NEED TO DELETE YOUR LANGUAGE FOLDER! Stop Server, Delete Language Folder, Start Server, Allow ResSigns To Regenerate All Language ymls. If not done in this Order, you WILL get Errors.
  
• Updated to CB1.2.5-R5.

Version 2.4.1 : 6/26/2012

• Added Polish locale for alternative Language System.

Version 2.4 : 6/25/2012

• Changed the task that updates signs to run more effectively, as faster.
  
• Tweaked the loading in and saving of signs to hopefully keep the signs.yml more effective.
  
• Switched a few variables that should hopefully help fix issues with false set reatables to work correctly with the Signs as well as fix any NPEs that were still occuring.

Version 2.3 : 6/4/2012

• Fixed a check for players trying to unrent Residences when their name was too long to fit on the sign, method now checks Renting Players' Name. Sorry!
  
• Tweaked the auto sign refresh feature to be slightly more effective with the Residence Rent_Expire Timers.

Version 2.2 : 5/5/2012

Version 2.1 : 5/2/2012

• Fixed issue where certain sign creation exceptions weren’t getting saved into the signs.yml.
  
• *NEW*Added finally the ability to call and set Residences as false for Auto-Renew Rentable on sign creations! YAY! (Testing on this feature is appreciated to make sure I got the write call methods from Residence since they were recently added).

Version 2.0 : 5/1/2012

• *NEW* Totally revamped the way ResidenceSigns handles the signs by using some flat yml files to also store Sign data(signs.yml). This new feature allows for much better sign control when Events get thrown from Residence. It is highly advised to not touch this file for any reason.
  
• *NEW* ResidenceSigns should now automatically update upon Residence Events occuring, either by "/" commands or if rent expires and player can't afford or the autorefresh is set to false.
  - NOTE: Not every exception has been added just yet as I was quite excited to get this release out to all of you!
  
• *New*Added New config.yml node for Unrenting on Sign Right-Click. NOW STOP QQing ABOUT IT! :P
  
• Readjusted the temporary fix to the sign by changing it to left-click updates. By left-clicking the sign if it is rented but not displaying that, it will update, and vice versa if not rented but says it is, will fix as well.
  
• Added German.yml to default written languages for the Alternative Language system.
  
• Added smoother components to the conversion methods, if you have still yet to convert to v1.4+.
  
• Adjusted Config.yml Handler to even better recognize Out of Date Config.yml, and to update it.
  
• Adjusted the LanguageManager to better handle writing new alternative language.yml's.
  
• Massive Code Cleanup, a few methods combined for more effective code.

Permissions!

ResidenceSigns now has Permissions support via Vault!
