Simple tax system change.

Please just allow us to make our taxes negative meebles. It would be amoozing and actually applicable in some scenarios as the one I find myself in. It should be as simple as removing 1-2 lines of code.

Thx
-twomooAlso i tracked down the location of the code and its simple enough that I could do it myself in a minute, removing the code really wont break anything for those concerned.

Not that I dislike the idea, but I'd like to point out that this could create a nightmare for staff. If a co-mayor of a large town chose to, they could set the taxes to a large negative number which would destroy the town. What are staff supposed to do in that situation after banning the player?

Co mayors can unclaim all the plots in a town and kick all the residents, the co mayor already is in a situation to kill the town. If you want, you can also have a minimum similarily to how taxes cant be above 3500 maybe they also cant be below -3500?

Or they could just withdraw the town balance.

Good idea, I'm sure it could be useful it a handful of situations.

Valid point, but this doesn't benefit the co-mayor at all, and mayors can probably pick their co's more carefully than that.
As for further action beyond a ban, the co-mayor can be fined and the town refunded. There are very few ways to use this to break the rules, and all of them are detectable and manageable as far as I can see.

They doesnt force towns to make their taxes negative, it just gives them the option to

We don't see much reason to implement this, and we have many other fixes to worry about first.
Thank you for the suggestion, but this is denied.
