# SiegeWar
***SiegeWar*** adds a war system to ***Towny***.
### Features
* ⚔️ **Sieges:** Wars are conducted by means of sieges. A siege occurs when a nation attacks a town.
* 🤖 **Automatic:** Sieges are started by players and automatically managed by the plugin. Daily staff management of sieges is not required.
* 🚩 **Geopolitical:** Players can "work out" their in-game geopolitical ambitions e.g. a nation can, in-principle, capture all the non-capital towns on a server, and/or it can use sieges or the threat of sieges to extract in-game money from enemy towns and nations.
* ☔ **Town Protections:** Towns cannot be damaged or stolen-from during sieges. Also, non-capital towns can activate the *Peaceful* option, making them immune to sieges, but vulnerable to instant subversion (capture). Captured towns remain in the /nation and /alliance chat channels of their home nations, and do not get added to the chat channels of their occupying nations."
* ☔️ **Nation Protections:** Nation capitals cannot be captured, and if they do get sieged, they receive double the usual post-siege immunity duration.
* 🕒 **Cross-Timezone Support:** Each siege consists of 7 hours fighting time, spread over the course of a weekend, which allows nations in different IRL-time-zones to compete against each other.

### Credits:
- *SiegeWar* was initially developed by [Goosius1](https://github.com/Goosius1), starting in the summer of 2019.
- Originally *SiegeWar* was a fork of *Towny*, being built directly into *Towny*.
- *SiegeWar* was later transformed by [LlmDl](https://github.com/LlmDl) & [Warriorrr](https://github.com/Warriorrrr) into the plugin which exists today. This work took about 2 months, and involved adding many many API events to *Towny*, and changing the entire *SiegeWar* database to use *Towny* metadata. The plugin was released in January 2021.
- Following the release of the plugin, many new features and improvements were added, with key contributions from [Goosius1](https://github.com/Goosius1), [LlmDl](https://github.com/LlmDl), and [Warriorrr](https://github.com/Warriorrrr). Multiple other developers have contributed also, notably [Ceeedric](https://github.com/ceeedric).
- Special thanks to the servers *CCNET*, *DatBlock*, and *EarthPol*, who pioneered the use of the system, and have provided much valuable information, feedback, and bug reports.
- [Goosius1](https://github.com/Goosius1) was the maintainer of this repo for the TownyAdvanced org, until his retirement from *Minecraft* plugin development in October 2021.
- *SiegeWar* is now maintained by the TownyAdvanced org.
