Townships allows players to build towns that require houses, farms, defenses, or whatever you want. Players can build structures that can do just about anything. Townships is highly configurable with many optional features. If you can imagine it, then you can make a building that can do it.
Installation
Unzip Townships.zip in your plugins folder.
Restart your server
If you need more information on config files, check out the Townships Wiki.
Note on Performance:
This plugin runs very quickly, but has some features that can cause lag on servers exceeding 100 players. All of those features can be disabled. EffectWarehouse.jar is the first one to disable. EffectConveyor.jar is the next one with the most lag potential. Finally, if you're still having issues, you can disable player in region checks in config.yml. Those checks are used for a number of effects like arrow turrets and animal farms (anything that requires you stand somewhere). This plugin has been tested with 40 players and 1500 regions and runs fine with all features.
