Uiopy1's Towny Command Compendium!

Hey there! Uiopy1 here! Long ago, I went through and memorized all of the Towny Commands, so now I know all about Towny. This guide is to help you learn about the various commands of Towny. But first, some links.

Towny Command List: https://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/towny/wiki/Commands
theEditson's Guide to Towny Perms: http://meepcraft.com/threads/theeditsons-guide-to-towny-perms.690/

Please note that all commands can be found by doing /towny in the Towns World, and the different sections can be viewed by doing /towny ?, /nation ?, plot ?, /resident ?, /town ?, /townyadmin ?, and /townyworld ?.

Red commands mean that they are broken/currently disabled/not working on MeepCraft.

Permissions

Permissions are helpful tools that let you customize whether or not certain people can do certain things in certain places. This is my version of permissions in Towny. For a more professional perms guide, go to: http://meepcraft.com/threads/theeditsons-guide-to-towny-perms.690/.

There are 3 different types of perms with mainly the same structure.

/res set perm [friend/outsider/ally] [build/destroy/switch/itemuse] [on/off]
/plot set perm [friend/outsider/ally] [build/destroy/switch/itemuse] [on/off]
/town set perm [resident/outsider/ally] [build/destroy/switch/itemuse] [on/off]

Some of the above can be left out of the command structure entirely. Examples:

/plot set perm switch on- This would make EVERYONE be able to switch on the plot.
/res set perm friend build on- This would make my friends be able to build on any plot I own.
/town set perm off- This turns all permissions in your town off.
/res set perm ally off- This would make allies not be able to do anything on any of my plots.

And of course, these:

/plot set perm reset
/res set perm reset
/town set perm reset

The above all reset all perms in specified perm area.

Once again, I highly recommend you visit http://meepcraft.com/threads/theeditsons-guide-to-towny-perms.690/ for a MUCH more extensive permissions guide. This one here only covers the basic commands.
