Towny Mechanics & Gameplay

Overview
Towny on DoragonCraft is a powerful town and nation management system that encourages community building, economy, and immersive roleplay. Players can create towns, claim land, set up governments, and engage in diplomacy with others.

Taxation & Upkeep

• Towns pay daily upkeep based on land and infrastructure.

• Taxes are collected from residents to fund the town’s upkeep and development.

• Use /towny time to check how long until the next tax collection.

Outposts

• Outposts are remote townblocks used for expansion or strategic purposes.

• Claim an outpost with /town outpost <#>.

• Ideal for resource gathering, guarding territory, or building secondary bases.

Ranks & Roles

• Mayor: The leader of the town with the highest administrative permissions.

• Resident: Town members with rights to plots and town activities.

• King: Leader of a nation, controlling diplomacy, taxes, and towns.

• Promote or demote members using /town rank.

Plot Types & Uses
