Houses
Houses is a house system for servers who want to allow their players to buy,sell and rent houses. Buying, selling and renting houses is easily done by clicking custom signs. A player who owns or rented a house will be able to open the house door, while others can not. Signs are automatically linked with iron doors. Houses have class and number.
The house class is how good they are, for example class 1 would be the best house available and class 4 a decent house.
The house number is like an apartment number. A class might have many similar or even copies of houses working as apartments. A skyscraper could be one class containing many numbers.
Admins can add and remove house owner from the database manually to have complete control of who own which house. Admins and/or other players with permission are the ones putting up the signs next to the house (iron) doors.
Features:
- Buy and sell houses with signs
- Rent houses with signs
- Players can rank up/down depending on what house they buy
- Automatically set the class prices through the config file
- Display house owners, prices and info
- Guest system
- Home teleportation

Oh yes how foolish of me to not make it like that from the start... It should be an easy thing to make and will hopefully be included in the next update

Posted Jul 2, 2013Hi!
First of all, thanks for this great plugin! I would like to make a suggestion. Right now, when for example a player rents house for 1 hour, the rental will go on even after 1 hour has gone past, until player goes to the door of the house he rented. If the player doesn't go to the door for a week, noone else can rent it in that time. Maybe we could have it changed so if 1 hour goes past the house is automatically taken away?

Posted Jun 24, 2013Would it be possible to make it so players can give their friends access to their house? That way players can share houses? Thanks for the great plugin! Works great on my MMO server!

I thought of another problem with claiming houses with the signs. I know what code to write to make it happen but I need to put the builders name somewhere, and there is no space on the signs. I could make it display when right-clicking the door to an not yet owned house, but i don't think that is the way to go. The owner's name displays when right-clicking an owned house, so that would collide with the builder's name. There is a [House Info] that does have space for the builder's name, but that sign is and should only be needed when renting houses.
Any ideas on how and where to display the builder's name?

I can imagine many servers are not worried about this, but Nova Mundi isn't exactly a normal server. Thank you for being so understanding and receptive to suggestions.
You raise a valid point regarding people laying claim to other people's houses. I'm going to consider it a non-issue, though, since I suppose the ownership sign could be considered a sort of deed or land claim. It would encourage players to put these locks on their own houses, an idea I think I like.
I can revise my server's code of laws to include guidelines for these sorts of disputes, but I doubt I'd see it happen outside of inter-faction political passive-aggressiveness.

You have a really good point there! :) Let me explain why the money "vanish". I made this plugin for my own server which is a big city where only the owners/admins can build. So it's an already built city in where players should buy houses that the owners/admins built. The owners/admins don't need the actual money and therefor it vanishes. Think of it as if the money went to the government. The plugin in general is suited for servers like this, where the players don't build and sell houses to other players.
On your server, the economy is different i suppose. Players would like to build and sell their houses for profit if i understood you correct. This isn't anything i've needed so i haven't even thought about it and i am very happy that you told me about this. I will definately put this feature on the TODO-list and hopefully get it done sometime soon. There will be problems with all the houses sold before this feature is implemented and there will be some issues when players put up signs on other players houses, making them the owner of the other players houses.

Posted May 28, 2013Could it be made to where the money goes to the builder/previous owner of the house instead of just vanishing?
One of my Time Lords wants to build an apartment complex, but is irritated that he doesn't make any money with this system.
EDIT: To elaborate a bit, I've been working on building a model economy in Minecraft, largely to settle a score with an old college professor who didn't agree with a paper I wrote. The fact that this plugin makes money vanish is extremely bothersome. It can also be easily abused for free money. I love the general design, but it seems like it is only half-finished.

I will do a tutorial on that this week. Here's a quick one:
First of all you need a nearby buy/sell/info sign. On the first row you type: [rent house] On the second row you type the number of days. On the third row you type the number of hours On the last row you type the price with the $ sign before
Reply if there is something you didn't understand, or wait for the tutorial

I assume that the house costs 500000. Try buying it when having 500001 or more. If that works, tell me. Otherwise, i don't know what could cause it

Make sure you have the latest version, and post the stacktrace (the many lines of weird code that appears in the console when getting the error). There is probably a bug that i have to fix, but to do so i need the stacktrace to see how it happend.
