If possible, I'd like there to be an actual co-owner rank implemented into worldguard. It would prevent accidental trolls from removing the original owner from the town but still allow them to add people to the region.

+1

Plus the possibilities with sub-regions would be nice now that they are a thing. If co-owners were added, you could add people to a sub-region as a co-owner to allow them to add people to plots - similar to how friends can join the server together and /cmodify their chests.

 

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding something but can't you just add them as an owner of the subregion for that?

 

You can't add owners to sub-regions, only members. Not sure why it's blocked.

Although that's a different suggestion, it would be nice!

For this suggestion, I suppose some sort of addition could be nice- but couldn't you just use the other flags (like the entry message) to accomplish this "Contact Samiwarber for all town questions"

 

I believe it's blocked with how sub-regions are handled by the parent region. If someone is a member of the parent region, they automatically have permissions to any sub-region. If it can be possible to add someone as an owner of a sub-region without interfering with permissions of the parent region that'd be great (maybe I should write this as a different suggestion, lol)

 

We have no controlling over WG and will not be forking such a major project just to rip it apart for something like this, which would also require we maintain a custom ECC fork until the end of time.

You can find the original owner via the forums.
An alternate solution is not to have co-owners, or simply add co-owners you genuinely trust.
