Currently, 9 of the 15 plots in Rubodyke are taken. But soon it will be a matter of deciding if and when the first plots will be resolved due to inactivity. It would therefore be useful to know: when was the plot passed and when was the last-login. The effort is still manageable and I do it with a small table and the commands, but it would be good to have a tool that does some of the work for me, since there are already tools to manage NPCs themselves.

Maybe it's possible to use the functionality of the Party Mod as a first step, of course under a different name, directory, etc.?

In a second step, a timestamp could be added, for example for issue #3271

And in a third step, changes and substitutions should be possible, see #1755

That's a problem Arabella (and now daydream) had and have with Aveniture as well.

I don't see any relation to the party mod (linked issues). A city plot ought to be independent from party membership.

I don't remember if the areas mod stores when a plot is assigned. If not that can be changed relatively easy.

Alias is planning to have plot assignment be handled by an NPC. Perhaps you two can work together there? The best way might be to mark plots with a special value in the areas mod as plots (IIRC Alias prepared that already), tell the NPC which one is the masterarea, and then have it go through the subareas and provide information about the plots (name of area, ID of area, current owner, when assigned, last login of owner?). That is slightly more than what the NPC can currently handle directly. Alias is planning on having a map of the city shown and indicating the location of the plot there. I'm thinking more of a list of plots offered as options by the NPC. That's probably more dynamic than what the NPC do currently but might be handled by them.

Plots are a core feature of 1.2

Of course, there are a lot of relations. And who wants to equate the party and the inhabitants? I certainly don't. The magic word is "functionality".

Just like the leader of a party, the mayor can invite players. Once in the list, information can be shared. Of course, you don't need a name tag, but you can read the lists. Just as the leader can use the Party Officer, the Mayor can also use the Mayor's representative to invite players to settle in the city. Players may or may not accept this. Players can also apply for citizenship on their own initiative.

But if Alias has something better in the pipeline, then that's good, especially if it's directly related to the respective plot. At the moment, there is still only paper and pen or, at best, an external table sheet.

Is there already a pre-release version? Today the last plot was distributed.

It's about an uncomplicated restart of the affected plots. Without tools and commands, this can also be torn down by hand. However, there are always problems with protected chests and doors. So it will always take an admin's scarce time.
