Towny Titles and Surnames Guide

In Towny, players have the ability to customize their in-game identity by setting titles and surnames. These titles and surnames can also be customized with color codes to make them stand out. Here’s how you can set them up:


Setting Your Towny Title and Surname

To set your title and surname using the Towny plugin, follow these steps:

  1. Setting Your Title The title appears before your name and can be customized by the mayor or a higher-ranking player.

    • Command: /town set title [player] [title]

    • Example: /town set title Aytte Mayor

    • This will make the player "Aytte" display as "Mayor Aytte" in chat.

  2. Setting Your Surname The surname appears after your name and can also be set by the mayor or a higher-ranking player.

    • Command: /town set surname [player] [surname]

    • Example: /town set surname Aytte theBrave

    • This will make the player "Aytte" display as "Aytte theBrave" in chat.


Adding Colors to Titles and Surnames

Towny allows the use of Minecraft’s color codes to customize titles and surnames. To add color, you can use the Minecraft color codes, which consist of an & symbol followed by a character. For example, &6 will give gold color.

Here’s how you can add colors:

  1. Colors in Titles

    • Command: /town set title [player] [title]

    • Example: /town set title Aytte &6Mayor

    • This will display "Mayor Aytte" in gold.

  2. Colors in Surnames

    • Command: /town set surname [player] [surname]

    • Example: /town set surname Aytte &cTheBrave

    • This will display "Aytte TheBrave" with the surname in red.


Minecraft Color Codes

Here’s a list of Minecraft’s basic color codes that you can use:

  • &0 - Black

  • &1 - Dark Blue

  • &2 - Dark Green

  • &3 - Dark Aqua

  • &4 - Dark Red

  • &5 - Dark Purple

  • &6 - Gold

  • &7 - Gray

  • &8 - Dark Gray

  • &9 - Blue

  • &a - Green

  • &b - Aqua

  • &c - Red

  • &d - Pink

  • &e - Yellow

  • &f - White


Example of a Fully Customized Name

Let’s say you want the name to appear as "Mayor Aytte the Brave," where "Mayor" is gold, "Aytte" remains the default color, and "the Brave" is red:

  • Command for Title: /town set title Aytte &6Mayor

  • Command for Surname: /town set surname Aytte &cthe Brave

This will result in: Mayor Aytte the Brave with "Mayor" in gold and "the Brave" in red.


Resetting Titles and Surnames

To remove a title or surname, use the following commands:

  • Remove Title: /town set title [player] none

  • Remove Surname: /town set surname [player] none
