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

Renting out prison cells? :D
About your second message: Was that a question about how to let members access the region as well? In this case: Check out the WorldGuard Wiki, you can set up the flag with an user-group argument that allows members to access the region as well.
Notice that the second message I responded to was deleted.

No, I only had to change the way the plugin checks for updates. I do not want to implement an automatic installer, as this could break the plugin if you use a server-specific version. In my opinion admins should make sure that a new plugin version is running stable before applying it and therefore do not risk their server.
@BixoMCServer
Watch the video tutorial. Especially the section about parent-regions :)
@leo38638
You are currently only allowed to create new regions by having the permission "regionforsale.admin" and the respective WorldGuard permissions. But these apply globally / for the whole world.

You are right, I had the chance to do some testing the last days and it seemed like there were no major issues. 1.7.2 seems to be working, also with the newest WorldGuard build. I am sorry if this was false news. Thanks for the hint :)

Are you sure about that really? :) Have you compiled against latest WorldEdit/WorldGuard dev builds? Pretty sure WorldGuard relies on WorldEdit for items, and it got support for that a while ago... https://github.com/sk89q/worldedit/commit/7b539dade60bdb4671159b0e045d1468cf6f4929

Select the region using / /rg select <region-name> or by clicking its sign, then use / /rg set buyable <true/false>. Same for "rentable".

I cannot officially confirm that yet, but yes, it seems like there are no obvious failures using RegionForSale 2.2 with Bukkit for Minecraft.
You can try it on a test-server and if it's working for you you are free to use it :)

Posted Jan 13, 2014This Plugin is amazing!
I have tried many other WorldGuard region purchase plugins, and have been using something else for a few months which was giving me continuous issues. I am so glad I found RFS, and wish I did a long time ago. Well Done Phoenix, you are just awesome, this plugin is so solid and just works beautifully. Thank you :)

Thanks for your fast reply but I don't get what can be that wrong with WorldGuard. Without your plugin everything works fine (regarding to WorldGuard).
Anyway I hope that you will get this project working again as soon as possible and hopefully before we are going to release our new server. Keep up your good work :)

Well, following WorldGuard's GitHub discussions it seems like the API will change. Maybe because of the huge changes in the new MC version (new block ID system and all). However, there is not a "real" API, but only the normal code / functions that can be accessed, but which are very stable and usually not changed in their functionality.
Right now there are still some problems with the newest WorldGuard snapshot (regions are deleted on shut down) and therefore I am NOT ABLE TO speed up the process, as this plugin fully relies on WorldGuard.
However, I will try to adjust to the dev-versions and release a new RegionForSale version as soon as a stable WorldGuard release is out.
But thank you very much for your offer :)

Update: It seems like there are going to be NO problems with WorldGuard :) Sorry if this was a false information.

Since it's an API it should not break your plugin.
Can't you try a quick fix? Have you tried to fix this problem?
We found this plugin and I really like it .. but people can't work with this, if you tell them to wait 2 oder 3 oder 6 months for WorldGuard. If there is any option, please have a closer look at it or if we can help, just us whats wrong.
