    Suggestion: I would like to suggest we break out town cost based on surface area at a tiered rate.

    First we would have to break out mayor just like pres, i.e. Mayor would cost 20k ECC

    Total owned surface area size / rate
    10000 to 40000 / 2ECC per a unit
    40001 to 80000 / 4 ECC per a unit
    80001 to 120000 / 6 ECC per a unit
    120001 to 160000 / 8 ECC per a unit
    160001 to 200000 / 10 ECC per a unit
    200001 to 240000 / 12 ECC per a unit
    240001 to 280000 / 14 ECC per a unit
    280001 to 320000 / 16 ECC per a unit
    320000+ / 20 ECC per a unit

    Mayor title purchase required to own 10000 to 40000
    President title required to purchase 40001+

    Each purchases would still between 10000 and 40000 units, and each continue to have a uniq name.


    Reason:
    This would encourage players to limit town size based on need.

    Any Other Information:

    There might be some concern this would be extra paper work but game admins already have to track number of towns owned. This might even make it simpler depending on the type of reporting in the town plugin.

    There might be some concern about cost change for purchasing towns, but at the entry level this would actually decrease town cost. Until there are actual town transfer apps, all land owned would count against the registered owner even if "resold" to another player.

    examples:
    current first 100x100 would cost a person 85000
    additional cost can be seen at:

    under new plan first 100x100 would cost: 20k mayor app + (100 * 100 * 2 ) = 40k
    - adding another 100 * 100 unit would cost (100 * 100 * 2 ) = 20k
    - adding another 100 * 100 unit would cost (100 * 100 * 2 ) = 20k
    - adding another 100 * 100 unit would cost (100 * 100 * 2 ) = 20k
    - adding another 100 * 100 unit would cost 40k President app + (100 * 100 * 4 ) = 80k
    - adding another 100 * 100 unit would cost (100 * 100 * 4 ) = 40k

    under new plan first 200x200 would cost: 20k mayor app + (200 * 200 * 2 ) = 100k
    - adding another 200 * 200 unit would cost 40k President app + (200 * 200 * 4 ) = 160000k
    - adding a third 200 * 200 unit would cost (200 * 200 * 6 ) = 240000k
    - adding another 100 * 100 unit would cost (100 * 100 * 6 ) = 60000k

    I would like to add that the entry of town owner ship being 40k might be to low, but that bar is easily adjusted by changing the cost of the Mayor app to something like 40k. :idea:

    Wow, just wow, this is quite a neat idea, although it is complicated. I think if it was like this for a while though, everybody would learn the system, and understand it!

    This is too complicated to work, let's say there are around 5-10 apps a day, that means andrew would have to calculate different prices for every person, this is a pain and will take too much time.
