    We are making some changes to plugins on Pearl, the homes plugin we have been using has been a headache for players and admin alike.

    The part you won't like:

    Players will no longer be able to invite other players to their homes (at least at the start). The plan is that homes will now be either public or private. If a home is set to public any player that knows your name and the home name will be able to warp to the home. If the home is set to private only you (and staff when necessary) will be able to access it.

    The part you will like:

    The number of homes you will have has been increased.
    Tourist rank ~ 3
    Citizen and Worker ranks ~ 5
    Adept and Master ranks ~ 10
    Elite rank ~ 15

    These changes should take place in the next few days and if all goes well with the changeover the homes you have will keep their names and locations. You will want to set each to either public or private as you see fit. By default your current homes will be set to private. New homes will default to public unless you use "-p" tag. There will be a post with commands and switches to them at a later time.

    This is really cool news! Has the homes plugin been one of the barriers to us updating to 1.12? I think I'm just really excited about being able to set more than three homes. :D

    Edit: Another thread answered that question. It's a shame the old homes plugin developers didn't get proper updates rolled out, but I think the switch to the new plugin will ultimately be for the best. Thanks for letting us know!

    Should be fixed now. :)

    Developers rarely have staff to step in when the real world calls. At least the custom plugin held us over til the point that an acceptable public alternative could be found. Most homes plugins now are pretty basic, just another novice project type of thing, which has been a bigger issue than needing to replace a plugin in general.

    When can we expect to set more homes? Do we have a date? Or is it already active? Thanks!!!
