/plot set perm tweak

Ever since tinkering with the Town Assistant position, I found that /plot set perm build|destroy|switch is lacking. How hard would it be to tweak it to allow build|destroy|switch|harvest. It would allow for towns to have town farms without people being able to destroy non-plant blocks.

That, and /plot set wilds could work the same way. I think it is going to involve a little editing of the Towny code, because I am certain Minecraft registers a pumpkin break as a destroy, not a harvest. In the end, it would make life so much less annoying :P.

Unfortunately that's something that would have to be discussed with the towny developers, as Noobscraft people cannot mess with that. :/

I do agree it would be very cool to allow that kind of thing, since I hate when people destroy things. Perhaps there could even be something about mob killing, as I hate when people destroy our XP farms because you need destroy on to kill the mobs.

I'm not sure what Towny is programmed in, but if it is Java, any Java programmer can edit it and tweak it. Its how modding is so available in Minecraft.

I do this type of stuff for fun, but I have not looked at any of the code so I do not know what is involved.

Someone else made suggestions for towny and a mod replied that they should talk to the towny developers about it. I think it's more that they're not allowed to mess with the coding without permission, after all the towny developers are allowing the server to do it.

That's my guess at least.
