RegionForSale
Allows players to buy or rent chosen WorldGuard-regions from the server. Super easy to set up and highly adjustable! Great to set up towns with different areas; you can define a marketplace with small, only rentable plots, an area for premium-members only and a lot of other districts.
Features
- None, area and volume based price calculation |
- Inheritance system allowing to manipulate settings global, world-wide, region-wide (parents) and region-specific |
- Region-limits for players, group-specific region limits |
- Optional permissions for regions & whole areas
- Optional taxes
- Very easy sign-connection-system, no region-names on the signs, auto-updating
- Language support
- Region rebuilding (Even non-cuboid regions!)
- Benefit from WorldGuard's well-rounded region-system
- Integration of other plugins
- ShowCaseStandalone - automatically removes shops
- LWC - automatically removes protections
! Info - Development halted

Hello everybody,
This is Tobias aka Phoenix, the developer of this project. I am sad to inform you that RegionForSale, just like the Bukkit project, is pretty much dead nowadays. I do not like the fact that Minecraft is owned by Microsoft and, even though I respect the company, I cannot see how the spirit of Minecraft fits in there at all. Shame on you for selling, Notch! I do not care about the money involved. But this game, no matter how much profit it generates, belongs into the hands of loving, independent developers (Just like Bukkit – love you guys). My opinion. To be fair: My interest shifted in general as well. So overall, I am not willing to work on this project for free anymore.
Q: What about security updates / bugfixes?
A: I will do my best to still fix those and upload a new version for you. I do not want to let you down.
Q: Will you continue if I donate xx dollar?
A: Probably not. Please try to estimate the time I spend and apply a horrific minimal wage – I am sure you still do not want to pay that. Yes, it’s quite some time.
I still want to thank you very much for the few donations I received up to this point. Developing was fun and I was so very euphoric when I received my first donation. I still remember quite well. Not to forget about the many supportive comments and “thank you”s I received despite the money.
Sincerely,
Phoenix_IV

Updating
RegionForSale provides an automatic update checker to let you get informed as soon as a new version is available. If you do not want to use this feature you can set check_for_updates to false in the general.yml config file.
Todo
- Quick-set options on signs
- Give users, who rented a region, the possibility to buy it (without unrenting + possible rebuilding). The other way round would be retarded - Tell me if you don't think so.
- Auto-updater for minor updates (?)
Before writing a comment
If you want to report a bug or suggest a new feature, please create a ticket instead. These are the reasons why:
- You will always see the status of your request
- Others can easily see if something was already requested
- The discussion about it is separated from other comments
- Your request can't be simply overlooked or forgotten

Posted Oct 29, 2013I was hoping to use this with Tekkit Classic so I tried out version 0.4 for 1.2.5, all was working well until the server restarted and worldguard removed every single region in the main world (only world I'd tested the plugin), the output at startup just listed every region in turn (over 600) saying "<regionname> is no longer a worldguard region and has been removed...".
Any suggestions? Or any possibility of an updated version compatible with 1.2.5/TC?
Great plugin btw, I've been trying out other buying/renting plugins and the way signs link to regions with a click puts this way ahead of others :)

Well now this would really be an easy way to do it. Good idea, didn't think of it! I'll create a new ticket based on your comment - I can't promise anything but I will keep this in mind.

No that would be too much work i just thougt of a simple region flag for the Worldguard regions whenever there is a new player just parse the Name of the owner/renter to the region flag :)
EDIT: A quick look into the worldguard API i found this:
region.setFlag(flag, flag.parseInput(plugin, sender, value))
This would happen everytime someone buys/rents the region

Theoretically yes, but this would require RegionForSale to listen to player movements, which might not be very efficient. WorldGuard can already send welcome / farewell messages (using flags), but I think you cannot use information like the owner's name in there. Maybe a feature request for WorldGuard?

Yes, indeed. Maybe there will be a native DynMap bridge one day, but for now you can already use the WorldGuard-DynMap bridge, which can display the regions and also differentiate between free and bought regions :)

Posted Oct 7, 2013Maybe a DynamicMap option is a good idea for this?

Posted Oct 3, 2013It's time for me to leave a reply. After some time of inactivity it seems as if I will now find time and vigor again to get up on all the pending tasks. I cannot tell how long it will take to implement what, but I am on the go now. :)

Have you already started working on this? It would help me greatly if this was done by/before 1.7 update

If you do it faster than the Simple Region Market (they have the feature but its buggy atm) i will use your plugin over their plugin :P
A little motivation boost for u there ;D Thanks for considering this feature awesome plugin otherwise :)

Posted Sep 14, 2013Is it possible to rebuild the region from a schematic that will be created when the [Regionmarket] has been defined?
If no i would find this extremely important to rent and sell predefined houses and structures

Huh? Sorry, but that's really hard to understand. Maybe this is still the answer you are looking for: If you want to protect certain regions without having them for sale you can just add it to WorldGuard only:
/rg define <region-id>@FatThumbs
Great. Thanks :)
