Automatically Loading Town Upkeep

KaiUsesThis

I'm not sure if this was already suggested. I wasn't too sure what to search in order to find it, and I didn't see or remember posting on anything like this recently denied.

Basically like a auto reloading balance for the town from your balance. People could set it up to automatically reload the amount of money lost in upkeep each day. Additionally, they could set it to withdraw any profit in the town automatically (if there is any).
Pretty simple.

...read it.
Have a command linked to your balance, so I automatically deposit say, 10K into my town bank every day so I don't have to manually keep up with it.

+1, not a bad idea, not sure if it's totally possible.

Or you could just deposit money?

Yeah, this is a thing, but sometimes it happens.
It happened to me like a week ago.

what would the command be?

People are generally busy and forget things easily. Anything that will automate something just to get something off your mind is pretty good. :D

Good point though ;)

/autodeposit ?

/t toggle autodeposit... or something along those lines

I can give you an equation to find how much your making, here it is.

r = amount of revenue from residents p = amount if revenue from plots t= total revenue

r + p = t

To get resident tax

r = # of residents - # of staff members ; t = resident tax price ; e = total revenue

t(r) = e

To get plot tax

s = amount of sold plots - the amount of plots owned by staff ; t = plot tax ; e = total revenue

s(t) = e

Additional Steps (If you have embassys)

s = amount of sold embassy plots ; t = embassy tax ; e = total revenue

s(t) = e

Do the same equation for shop plots or any other type of taxed plot.

Once you have found all your earnings, add them together.

Once you have added them, subtract them from your upkeep.

There you go, simple math problem to find your earnings.

Your welcome!

You should consider making a guide with that info. I'm sure some people will find it useful :D

TBH I think you should be able to remember and bad luck as I know some people do forget but have say 2 weeks worth in the bank. I don't believe this to be necessary.

We're apparently working from different definitions of "simple." ;)

1) Today, do /t, write down your balance.
2) Tomorrow, do /t, write down your balance.
3) Tomorrow - today = daily profit/loss

Or if you don't want to be bothered to write things down, use this technique to pull the info right from your chat logs: http://meepcraft.com/threads/how-to-search-your-minecraft-chat-logs.54110/

Agreed, it does happen, but that leads to Towny raiding, which is one of the best parts of the Towny game. No nerfs, please.

This is an alright suggestion, but I don't think that it is so important of an issue that it needs to be completed. Just deposit money into your bank! If you forget to keep enough money in the bank, you probably aren't responsible enough to be running your own town!
Also, as NuckleMuckle (10/10 name) just said, it can possibly ruin raiding, which wouldn't be very fun.

if you cant afford atleast a month's worth of taxes then ya really should be a resident and not a mayor. My 2 cents. Ive deposited so far 100+ days worth if not the whole year.

This would effectively destroy towny raiding.

Is this an algebra class?

This could be good but at the same time people could go broke not knowing why. And this isn't really useful to be honest with you because you just have to pay attention to your bank if you care about your town, it's a waste of time to develop this. -1

This is very basic algebra.
