    @Capbo_

    What is your idea of "builder friendly towns and plots"?

    Use the towns @Bmanvman bought and use them as buildertowns and things that will help them, farms and such. The current Foix is already quite packed

    • Cheap plots to get them started
    • Farms to help them get food and money
    • Offer pickaxe rentals so they know how to make good money
    • Easy to navigate town
    • Tutorial to help them, /tutorial doesn’t help that much

    I agree with bman here, @Hackney_Builder your previous towns failed, what makes you think that you can run Foix? 250k for a rank to sell houses is just flat out ridiculous.

    I will say, I did have a fair few people keeping me company in the new Halloween town while I was building that were not a part of Foix as I was showing off the roller coaster once I finished lol

    And one of the reasons I sold my towns was because you had no idea how a nation worked. You wanted to run Foix on donations. This is a very large rock to hurl from your glass house. Also, the "tax" is 50k.

    My plan, at present is:
    • Keep selling mansions, and sell the ability to do so for 50k.
    • Allow sales of buildings in the Old Town (I don't why this wasn't used) so long as the outside is kept untouched.
    • In the long run, build new towns and make them a lot more builder-friendly (plots, apartments, etc).

    Who is going to buy the ability to sell a mansion for 50k? That’s just money going to your pocket and they get nothing.

    SolarFarms was built almost 100% with material donations, and its now 200x1000 with almost 6 fully completed farms.
    You just have to have the right methods :)

    @Hackney_Builder I may not be part of the presidential cabinet, but I am still part of Bman's team, I'm just curious as to why you haven't replied to any of my responses on your comments regarding town development?

    There is a waterfall on the line, trains go nowhere they should go, and there are no minecarts. I think that qualifies as a mess.
    Regarding the events town, there were no large events done with it.

    I was in charge of events hosted in the events town, and unfortunately there was an issue irl at my job where I was required to work on Halloween which I had previously requested off, so the event didnt happen. That falls 100% on me.
    However, as I mentioned before the town will be made into a theme park as I put ALOT of time and resources into creating the fully functional rollercoaster :)

    I see, thank you for explaining. I was planning to build archery and spleef there. Maybe this could be worked out in parliament?

    I'm currently head of @Bmanvman's build team.
    To be honest, I would have to give you a solid no. Mainly based on the fact that you said
    when I spent hours of my time building a haunted house, a halloween welcome, 2 giant pumpkins, a fully functioning rollercoaster and was in the process of making a murder mystery.

    I think I can speak for @Capbo_ here. I think we can implement a sort of animal protection program, where certain animals can be hidden in a storage that is almost impossible to grief your way into.
    And to add on to what @Capbo_ said, we could also add a system that attracts new players, with a reward scheme that rewards them based on how long theyve been on the server and their activity and such.

    Where would this storage be located? I cannot see anywhere that would work in Foix.
    Where would the money come from? For a server of this size, the expense would be too much to fund without large amounts of money, and your manifesto has no ways for the nation to obtain such money.
