About 1.1City Tycoon is a concept designed by IcyGamma, and engineered by Aludane. It is based on IcyGamma's perspective on what a city server should be like, brought to life in code by Aludane.
Please report bugs and issues.Thanks to Nullable and Clockturn, your mods were helpful for research. Also thanks to those who created or worked on stuffty CityRPG mods, you've given us the platform to shine.
This server is hosted 24/7 with Kaphost.

How It Works 1.3IcyGamma's City Tycoon RP works by encouraging the user to build and event to create wealth, which can then be shared with other players through their events and roleplay. There are no jobs, police, gun shops, or other junky crap. All player interactions must be roleplayed, influenced by the central theme of money and greed.
Build Your TycoonPlayers will receive 10% of their brick count in currency per tick. Build new structures to earn more money. There are no special lot bricks, just straight forward construction.
Market and SellTwo events have been provided: onactive > client > sell and ontransfersuccess. Get extra income by enticing fellow players to buy your services. Start a casino? Open a club with paid-entry? How about building meals for people and charging them at your restaurant with an evented bill? So many ideas, so many possibilites. Novelty fun encouraged!
Smart BankingDeposit and withdraw into your account. You can earn 1% interest on your money per tick. Do you invest in building new property, or will you try to become so rich you can live off of interest?
Mapped CityIsarland City has been built for this mod. The city has 24 streets / roads, five divisions, and 164 mapped and marked properties.
The LawAdmins will use reports from other players to "investigate" crimes. You may then be forced to participate in "court roleplay" where you may be fined and / or jailed. Since crime in this server is through RP, money fraud, or rule breaking, it will be handled by administration in a way that is fun and fair (this kind of roleplay requires admin monitoring). We accept bribes, and encourage paying off witnesses. <3
Building InspectionIsarland has a building code that you must abide. Property developers who break these codes (including spamming bricks to increase their profits!) will be made to correct their builds. Those who don't comply will have their building demolished, and run the risk of fine and / or jail time. Isarland officials may perform surprise checks on buildings at any time, so watch it CROOKS.
The Point 1.4This form of city server motivates building, clever thinking, and roleplay. Instead of people blowing their money on guns because there is nothing better to do, the city self-perpetuates as players build interesting things to spend money on (exploration is fun!) If you want to be a criminal, you are nudged to do it through roleplay rather than having an add-on ridigly guide you through criminal acts.
The mod provides a foundation that is achieved by a dedicated host and fun-loving players.
It is about taking responsibility away from the mod and giving it to you.
FAQ 1.5Q: What do I do?
A: Forget CityRPG and everything you knew about it. Make money by building, eventing services, and roleplaying with other players. What happens and how much fun you have is down to you and the players. We've just provided the framework.
Q: How do I make money?
A: You earn a % of your brick count in currency. By default it is 10%, but it may change up or down depending on the "roleplay economy". You also earn interest from the money in your bank account. You can make extra dosh by getting players to buy evented services (onactive > client > sell and onTransferSuccess).
Q: How do I buy lots?
A: There are no lots. Isarland has been mapped out with over 150+ baseplates. We will be releasing spaces regularly which you can then fill with your own baseplates. You may request a lot on the map if you find one you like. View the "property map" area to fine land by street name, region, and address. We do not charge for the sale of lots, but you may wish to sell them onto other players yourself if you grab a prime spot.
All requests can be posted here.
Q: Where are the police?
A: There aren't any. Crime must be roleplayed. It is not possible to kill players by weapons as this is not a DM server. If you want to murder a player, they'll have to consent to that story with you. Or maybe you can work together to fake a death, then get players to "donate" for the funeral-- good ol' Blockland fraud. CityRPG crime was never crime, it was just idiots playing "lets shoot everyone for no reason".
Q: Someone did something illegal, what do I do?
A: You can report it here or turn a blind eye. The evil government (aka admins) may investigate and stage a "court RP" where the person may be jailed. The jail is a sub-area of the minigame.
Q: What roleplay is required?
A: Just imagine you are in a city. Go to restaurants, stage a garden party, get into a fight on the street-- whatever. Do as little or as much as you want.
Q: I don't like roleplay or building.
A: Then you won't be a useful addition to the server. If you need a mod to tell you what to do, refer to CityRPG instead.
Q: I have other questions.
A: Post here, I'll help out.
Q: Can I have the mod?
A: No. Arguably, mods like CityRPG were ruined after being released. Rather than prosper, they hemorrhaged.
Building Code 1.6Use these guidelines:
> Do not build low-rise buildings among highrise
> Rule of thumb: tall buildings in central city, smaller ones on outside
> Do not spam: inappropriate brick choice and smuggling hidden bricks.
This is considered fraud in the roleplay.> Build with a city theme
> Do not use malicious events
>
Fill the lot appropriatelyYou may be fined / jailed or have your build destroyed. Read above for more.
