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

Well, not directly. You can make use of Gringotts, which allows to have items as money. In general you can only buy / pay for regions using an economy plugin supported by Vault.

Posted Apr 15, 2014This sounds absolutely perfect for my server. However, does this support items? E.g buying a region for 1 dirt?

What are "github files"? Are you talking about the source code? How will it help you to to update your server?
I will try to release a version supporting UUIDs before the new Minecraft version is out. Also notice that it will take maybe another month after the MC release until there will be a recommended or beta Bukkit release for this.

Posted Apr 15, 2014Hi all, no worries, I still exist and have a look at my projects. But, as @Yndi74 already mentioned, there is, unfortunately, not much time for them at the moment :(
However, RegionForSale is not abandoned and still becoming better and better :)
Thx @ zachrywilsn and Yndi for having an eye on this here while I vanished.
@johandre
The feature you are talking about has a very low priority compared to other things that are currently to do. Especially because there are workarounds I already described in my previous post. Sorry to disappoint you.
@mrretrus
You can evict a player by selecting the region and executing
//rg set player. As no player is given this will free the region.However, the region will also be freed automatically when the player runs out of money.
If you want to remove a player completely from the RFS system (Inactive since months etc) you can also use
/rfs forgetplayer <name>@Youramoron
Thank you for your feedback.

There is no option to support this directly, but you can either restrict the rent time to ten days (can be prolonged every time) or look out for a "command plugin" that executes "
//rfs forgetplayer <name>" after ten days of inactivity.Donations are very welcome of course, but they do not influence my work :)
@ShawnDaGeek
Hey,
Nice to hear, thanks. I hope RegionForSale is still working out good for you. I guess you are talking about the video; it is a client plugin called "WorldEdit GUI". You can find the link in the video description on Youtube or just google for it. Thanks for your offer to test the plugin - I will come back to you when I need help :)
@TNTUP
RegionForSale is able to:
//rg find)//rg locate <region>)//rg warp) (region has to be selected)I had to notice that the first two commands are not in the list - so thanks for making me notice ;)
To answer your offtopic ticket post: Everything already possible. Please try to search the commands / read up a little bit more.

Posted Mar 13, 2014I know this may be a noobie question for you, but what are you using to highlight the selections?
I am using bukkit 1.7.2 / worldedit, worldgaurd, and your plugin.
Thank you by the way, i am having fun learning to use this plugin, seems very useful.
P.S. I am not running a large production server, just a small one for myself and my children. If you need a tester we would be more than happy to assist in anyway we can.

Everything is working fine, but I am having a prison server so I wonder if it is possible to add a option so the player looses all his rented regions after 10 days of inactivity.

Currently the plugin still makes use of the standard minecraft usernames. I know about this problem and I am very concerned about it / will try to adjust as soon as possible. However, no player will be able to change his name to a username that is already taken. That means: As long as "Bob" does not change his username, "Eve" cannot just change his name to "Bob" and take over his regions.
Thanks for the heads-up.

So in May when 1.8 hits. are the regions going to be set by uuid's or are they already. I dont want people changing there name and getting into others homes/rooms etc.
Just wondering if this will be a issue.
