'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a skill which tasks the player with running a town inside the land of Melvor. Similar to {{Skill|Farming}}, it can be trained relatively passively. However, unlike {{Skill|Farming|nolink=true}}, {{Skill|Township|nolink=true}} has no {{Icon|Mastery}} levels, and uses a unique ''tick'' system instead of constantly running. Ticks are a passively generated resource at a rate of '''1 Tick per 5 minutes'''. Ticks can be spent at any time to progress your town, affecting all aspects of your town from population to resources, and with no limit on the amount of Ticks you can store, the town does not need constant attention to run.
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a skill which tasks the player with running a town inside the land of Melvor. Similar to {{Skill|Farming}}, it can be trained passively. However, unlike {{Skill|Farming|nolink=true}}, {{Skill|Township|nolink=true}} has no {{Icon|Mastery}} levels, and uses a unique ''tick'' system of progression. Each hour, the town will advance by one tick, during each tick [[#Resources|Resources]] and {{GP}} will be gained, which may then be reinvested into the town or converted into a number of [[Consumables]] and other resources for use in other skills.


It is important to note that you receive 144 ticks back when you reset your town. Starting over can be useful and should not be cause for alarm.
Over time, both the [[#Health|Health]] of the town's [[#Population|Population]] and efficiency of [[#Buildings|Buildings]] will deteriorate, with buildings requiring [[#Repairing Buildings|Repair]] in order to remain fully productive.


__TOC__
__TOC__


==Town==
== Town ==
A {{TownshipIcon|Town}} contains [[#Buildings|Buildings]] that are used to produce [[#Resources|Resources]] and {{GP}} [[GP]] for the player. The buildings are built within [[#Biomes|Biomes]], where each biome can accommodate different types of buildings and is subject to different production bonuses provided by the selected [[#Worship|Worship]].
 
=== Building and Upgrading ===
To construct buildings, first select a biome - a list of available buildings for that biome will then be revealed. Clicking on the build button for a building where the skill level, population, and the cost requirements have been met will then construct the selected quantity of that building. Once constructed, buildings cannot be destroyed or downgraded (with the exception of [[#Worship|Worship]] related buildings, which are destroyed when the current worship changes).
 
Once the maximum amount of a particular building has been constructed, an option to upgrade that building to the next tier will become available, provided an upgrade exists and the skill level and population requirements have been met. Upgraded buildings will provide a greater benefit than the previous tiers of the same type of building.


===Maps===
The cost of building can be reduced with some [[#Worship|Worship]] bonuses and in the following ways:
The following maps are available to start a Town. A Town must be completely reset to change maps.

-->Buildings which have been built will initially start with 100% efficiency and then degrade randomly over time - for every town update there is a 25% chance that each building will degrade by a flat 1%, down to a minimum efficiency of 20%. The exceptions to this are all storage buildings ({{TownshipIcon|Storehouse}}, {{TownshipIcon|Warehouse}}, {{TownshipIcon|Repository}}, {{TownshipIcon|Large Repository}})<!-- and {{TownshipIcon|Lemvor Lemon Stall}}-->, which do not degrade over time. The current efficiency of a building can be seen as a percentage in the top-left corner of that building's tile. While degraded, buildings which provide [[#Resources|Resources]] or [[#Stats|Stats]] will provide less of that resource or stat.

=== Land ===
There are two ways to return a building to 100% efficiency:
Each building requires a piece of [[land]] to be built. A map starts with 32 free pieces of land which are randomly assigned to the various biomes. Each subsequent piece of land becomes progressively more expensive. When a Town is reset, land that has already been purchased may be reassigned to different biomes for free.
* Repair the building, at the cost of the resources stated at the bottom of that building's tile
* If the maximum number of a building has yet to be built, constructing another one of that building will also fully repair that building. This has the benefit of avoiding the repair cost that would otherwise have to be paid


A total of {{GP|{{#invoke:Township|GetCumulativeLandCost|2048}}}} is required to purchase all 2,048 tiles of land. For more details, see [[Land]].
<!--
See: Township.getSingleResourceRepairCostForBuilding,
-->The repair cost of a building depends on the cost of constructing the building (after any building cost reducing bonuses), the building's efficiency, and any increased or decreased repair cost bonuses, where each {{TownshipIcon|Market}} built decreases the repair cost by 0.25%. The minimum repair cost is 1 resource. The repair cost of a building can be calculated as follows:
 
<math>\text{Repair Cost} = \frac{\text{Base Building Cost}}{3} \times \text{Buildings Built} \times \left ( 1 - \frac{\text{Building Cost Reduction %}}{100} \right ) \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Repair Cost %}}{100} \right ) \times \left ( 1 - \frac{\text{Building Efficiency %}}{100} \right )</math>
 
Where:
* '''Buildings Built''' is the number of buildings currently built within the biome in which the repair is taking place
* '''Building Cost Reduction %''' is capped at 80%
* '''Repair Cost %''' is the result of <math>\text{Increased Repair Cost - Decreased Repair Cost}</math>
* '''Building Efficiency''' is the current building efficiency percentage which can be found in the top left corner of the building


=== Biomes ===
=== Biomes ===
Each biome can build a restricted number of buildings. In addition, some buildings have production bonuses in certain biomes. Lastly, the Desert biome consumes 60 {{Icon|Clothing|type=resource}} per building per tick, and the Snowlands biome consumes 30 {{Icon|Coal|type=resource}} per building per tick. Biomes are covered in more detail in the buildings section.
There are ten biomes in total, where a different assortment of buildings may be built within each. Some of these biomes have level and population requirements that must be met before they may be accessed. Depending on the selected {{TownshipIcon|Worship}} buildings within some biomes can produce more or fewer resources than the same buildings within other biomes.
{{TownshipBuildingBiomeTable}}


==Stats==
== Stats ==
===Population===
{{TownshipIcon|Statistics}} are various properties in the Town that do not take up {{TownshipIcon|Storage}} space. These can be seen as cards immediately above the various [[#Resources|Resources]] for a town.
{{Icon|Population|type=township}} is the most important resource in Township - without it, the skill produces nothing and earns no experience. The population cap is gained by building {{BuildingIcon|Basic Shelter}}, and spending ticks will cause population to increase until it reaches the cap.


For every citizen in the Town, the player gains 0.3 experience per tick. This amount is further increased by {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}, up to an additional 100% bonus, which is additively added to normal skill boosts.
=== Population ===
{{TownshipIcon|Population}} is a core feature of Township. The population of a town affects how much skill XP is gained per tick (1 XP is provided per citizen, before any XP bonuses), and is a requirement for many [[#Biomes|Biomes]] and [[#Buildings|Buildings]].


To maximize experience, once a basic Town setup is completed, {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} should always be at 100% to provide at least 0.6 experience per citizen per tick.
The population of a town can be increased by constructing more {{TownshipIcon|Basic Shelter|Basic Shelters}} or upgrades to that building which provide population. The population is also affected by [[#Happiness|Happiness]], as the town's population is increased by the current happiness percentage, and [[#Health|Health]], where for each 1% reduction in health the town's population is also decreased by 1%.


If less than 40% of the total population is living in the Town, then the population has a 100% chance to grow each tick. At 70% of total population, the growth chance is 70%, and at 100% total population, the growth chance is 40%. The number of citizens will increase by 1.5% every growth phase.
If any buildings providing population or happiness degrade or if the health of the town decreases, then the town's population will decrease also - this can be alleviated by ensuring these buildings are regularly [[#Repairing Buildings|Repaired]] and the health of the town is maintained at or near 100%.


A citizen ages by 1 year every 8.7 ticks, meaning that it takes approximately 3.02 real-life days to age from 0 to 100 years old.
=== Storage ===
{{TownshipIcon|Storage}} allows [[#Resources|Resources]] to be stockpiled in the Town. A Town starts with a base {{TownshipIcon|Storage}} of 50,000, where additional capacity can be gained by constructing more {{TownshipIcon|Storehouse|Storehouses}}. No resources can be gained beyond the maximum storage capacity.


===Workers===
The maximum amount of each resource that can accumulate can be configured by visiting the "Maximum Storage" section of the Township page. Here the resource cap for each resource can be configured, and if needed excess resources can be discarded by using the "Yeet Resources" section.
{{Icon|Available Workers|img=Workers|type=township}} indicates the number of citizens that are available to perform jobs in the Town. All citizens with an age between 8 and 70 are considered {{Icon|Workers|type=township}}. The left number indicates the number of jobless {{Icon|Workers|type=township}}, out of the total amount on the right.


Unemployed citizens generate -5 {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}.
=== Happiness ===
{{TownshipIcon|Happiness}} is a modifier affecting the amount of [[#Population|Population]] a town has, and therefore also affects the amount of skill experience earned per tick. {{TownshipIcon|Happiness}} provides a flat increase to the amount of experience you earn, where 1% Happiness increases experience by 1%. Happiness has no limit, and can exceed 100%.


===Storage===
[[#Seasons|Seasons]] can also influence the happiness of your town, for example {{TownshipIcon|Winter|nolink=true}} and {{TownshipIcon|Nightfall|nolink=true}} reduces happiness, while {{TownshipIcon|Summer|nolink=true}} and {{TownshipIcon|Solar Eclipse|nolink=true}} increases happiness.
{{Icon|Storage|type=township}} allows [[Resource]]s to be stockpiled in the Town. A Town starts with a base {{Icon|Storage|type=township}} of 19,000, and is gained by building {{BuildingIcon|Storehouse}}. In addition, {{BuildingIcon|Basic Shelter}} contributes a small amount of storage space. No resources can be gained past the storage cap, and hitting the cap will cause buildings that consume resources to continue doing so.


===Happiness===
Happiness can be increased by building additional {{TownshipIcon|Gardens}} and {{TownshipIcon|Tavern|Taverns}}, and with the following bonuses:
{{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} is a modifier to the amount of experience you earn. {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} provides a flat increase to the amount of experience you earn, where 1% Happiness increases experience by 1%. The max amount of {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} is twice your {{Icon|Population|type=township}}.
{{ModifierTable|TownshipHappiness|Happiness|true|}}


Each point of {{Icon|Education|type=township}} provides 1 {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}, and is often the main source of a Town's {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}. In additiona, a small amount of {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} is gained or lost from each building in the Town. Notably, {{BuildingIcon|Gardens}} and {{BuildingIcon|Tavern}} buildings are intended to increase {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}. Lastly, {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} is decreased by 5 points for every overflowing corpse and unemployed citizen, and {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} is decreased by 40% and 50% additively from a {{Icon|Potions|type=resource}} shortage for elderly citizens and a {{Icon|Clothing|type=township}} shortage from buildings in the Desert biome.
=== Education ===
{{TownshipIcon|Education}} is a modifier to the amount of resources each building produces. {{TownshipIcon|Education}} provides a flat increase to the resource production, where 1% education increases the amount of resources produced by 1%. Education has no limit, and can exceed 100%.


===Education===
Education can be increased by building additional {{TownshipIcon|School|Schools}} and {{TownshipIcon|Library|Libraries}}, and with the following bonuses:
{{Icon|Education|type=township}} is a modifier to the amount of Resources each building produces. {{Icon|Education|type=township}} provides a flat increase to the amount of production, where 1% Education increases production by 1%. The max amount of {{Icon|Education|type=township}} is three times your {{Icon|Population|type=township}}.
{{ModifierTable|TownshipEducation|Education|true|}}


Every point of {{Icon|Education|type=township}} also provides one point of {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}. {{Icon|Education|type=township}} is produced from {{BuildingIcon|School}} and {{BuildingIcon|Library}} buildings.
=== Health ===
{{TownshipIcon|Health}} is a modifier which affects the [[#Population|Population]] of a town. Once {{SkillReq|Township|15}} has been reached there is a 25% chance that the health of the town will decrease by 1% during each town update, falling to a minimum of 20% health.


===Health===
The health of a town can be improved by converting either {{TownshipIcon|Herbs}} or {{TownshipIcon|Potions}} into {{TownshipIcon|Health}}, the cost of which is 10% of the current amount generated per update for the resource being converted.
{{Icon|Health|type=township}} is a mechanic that prevents elderly citizens from dying. In [[V1.1]], {{Icon|Health|type=township}} is bugged and citizens never die under the age of 100.


Health is first calculated using the following parameters weighted out of 235:
=== Worship ===
* {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} with a weight of 100
{{TownshipIcon|Worship}} is a stat that provides multiple powerful bonuses based on the chosen deity. It is gained by building {{TownshipIcon|Chapel|Chapels}} or {{TownshipIcon|Statue of Worship|Statues of Worship}} and has a set cap of 2,000. Note that although each Deity is associated with a different {{TownshipIcon|Statue of Worship}}, all statues provide an identical amount of worship.
* {{Icon|Education|type=township}} with a weight of 100
* Nonzero {{Icon|Potions|type=resource}} stockpile and positive growth rate contributes 15 weight
* Nonzero {{Icon|Clothing|type=resource}} stockpile and positive growth rate contributes 15 weight
* Nonzero {{Icon|Herbs|type=resource}} stockpile and positive growth rate contributes 5 weight
This is then modified by any "total health" modifiers and expressed as a percentage capped between 0 and 100%.


===Worship===
Some worship bonuses are always active, while others are active when certain worship checkpoints have been reached, being 5%, 25%, 50%, 85%, and 95% of the worship cap of 2,000. In addition, some worships have the magnitude of their positive modifiers doubled during their bonus [[#Seasons|Season]]. For example, while {{TownshipIcon|Spring|nolink=true}} is the current season, the 5% bonus from {{MonsterIcon|Aeris}} would provide a +50% production bonus to buildings within {{TownshipIcon|Mountains|nolink=true}} rather than the usual +25%.
Worship is a stat that provides multiple powerful bonuses based on which Deity you choose. It is gained by building {{BuildingIcon|Chapel}} or {{BuildingIcon|Statue of Worship}} and has a set cap of 2000. The benefits of each Deity you choose is outlined below:


Completion of {{ZoneIcon|Impending Darkness Event}} is required to unlock worship of Bane.
A deity to worship is initially selected when the town is first created, and can then be changed later at a cost of {{GP|50000000}}. Upon changing, the town will enter a period of unrest during which time all {{TownshipIcon|Chapel|Chapels}} and {{TownshipIcon|Statue of Nothing|Statues}} will be destroyed, and the efficiency of all buildings above 50% will be reduced to 50%. The consequences of changing worship are therefore significant, and the player should ensure they are fully prepared with adequate resources to repair buildings prior to changing.


All bonuses are '''additive''' with one another.
All bonuses are '''additive''' with one another.

===Dead Space===
The production of all resources can be increased through {{TownshipIcon|Education}}, stacking additively with any regular modifiers.
{{Icon|Dead Storage|type=township}} is checked by highlighting the {{Icon|Population|type=township}} icon, representing the number of citizens that have died. This storage is created by building {{BuildingIcon|Cemetery}}. 20% of the total {{Icon|Dead Storage|type=township}} will be cleared every day (288 ticks).


<!--
{{TownshipIcon|GP}} is a special type of resource that is deposited directly into the player's [[Bank]], while the other 12 resources are kept within {{TownshipIcon|Storage}}. This is the only resource that is not affected by resource production bonuses.  
ticksPerYear = 8.7
maxAge = 100
maxLifespan = ticksPerYear*maxAge
averageMigrationAge = 33
migrationChance = 0.9
averageLifespan = maxLifespan*(1-migrationChance) + maxLifespan*(maxAge - averageMigrationAge)/maxAge*migrationChance
ticksPerDay = 288
deadBodiesPerDayPerPopulation = ticksPerDay/averageLifespan
cemeteryPerDeadBodiesPerDay = 250*0.20
populationPerCemeteries = cemeteryPerDeadBodiesPerDay/deadBodiesPerDayPerPopulation
-> 106.18229166666667 citizens per Cemetery
-->
Once a Town has a fixed total {{Icon|Population|type=township}} and achieves steady-state over several real-life days, one {{BuildingIcon|Cemetery}} holding 250 {{Icon|Dead Storage|type=township}} will be required for every 107 {{Icon|Population|type=township}} on average.


Corpses overflowing the maximum {{Icon|Dead Storage|type=township}} generate -5 {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}.
The 12 primary resources may be used within the [[#Town|Town]] to construct buildings, or traded via the {{TownshipIcon|Trading Post}} to obtain items for the player. The amount of resources produced by a building can be calculated as follows:
<math>\textrm{Production} = \textrm{Base Amount} \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\textrm{Biome & Building Production Bonus}}{100} \right ) \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\textrm{Education} + \textrm{Resource Production Bonus}}{100} \right ) \times \frac{\textrm{Building Efficiency}}{100}</math>


== Resources ==
{{TownshipIcon|GP}} is earned by taxing the town's [[#Population|Population]], where the tax rate starts at 0% and increases by 10% for each {{TownshipIcon|Town Hall}} that is built, up to a maximum of 80%. Citizens are taxed every town update, and the amount of GP earned in tax from each citizen is {{GP|1.5}} for every 10% of tax rate. The amount of GP earned can be affected by Township specific GP production modifiers, such as those present within some [[#Seasons|Seasons]], although is not affected by global GP modifiers such as from {{ItemIcon|Aorpheat's Signet Ring}}.
There are a total of 13 resources. The production of all resources can be increased by up to 100% through {{Icon|Education|type=township}}, stacking additively with any regular modifiers.


{{Icon|GP|type=resource}} is a special type of resource that is deposited directly into the player's bank, while the other 12 resources are kept in {{Icon|Storage|type=township}}. This is the only resource that is exceptionally not affected by {{Icon|Education|type=township}}, although it does get increased by other production bonuses. The base generation is <math>\text{Citizens}*\text{Tax Rate}*30</math>, subject to other modifiers.
=== Buildings ===
{{TownshipBuildingTable}}


The other 12 resources may be used within the town, or traded via the {{BuildingIcon|Trading Post}} to obtain items for the player (see {{BuildingIcon|Trading Post}}).
==== Upgrades ====
{{TownshipBuildingUpgradeTable}}


{{Icon|Food|type=resource}} is used to feed citizens. Each citizen will consume 30 {{Icon|Food|type=resource}} per tick. It is also the most profitable resource to be traded.
=== Trading Post ===
The {{TownshipIcon|Trading Post}} enables players to exchange their Township resources for various [[Consumables]] and other resources for use within other [[:Category:Skills|Skills]]. Trading becomes available once the player has built at least one {{TownshipIcon|Trading Post|nolink=true}}, with the resource cost of trades decreasing by 0.33% for each trading post that is built.
{{TownshipTrader}}


{{Icon|Wood|type=resource}} is a basic resource used to build the lowest-level buildings.


{{Icon|Planks|type=resource}} are produced {{Icon|Wood|type=resource}} and is used to build low- to high-level buildings.
== Seasons ==
Seasons are periods of time during which modifiers affecting the quantity of various [[#Resources|Resources]] and [[#Stats|Stats]] relevant to that season are active. Seasons last for three days each, with the first season when a town is created being {{TownshipIcon|Spring|nolink=true}}. Once a season has ended the next season will begin, with the regular seasons progressing in the following order: {{TownshipIcon|Spring|nolink=true}}, {{TownshipIcon|Summer|nolink=true}}, {{TownshipIcon|Fall|nolink=true}}, and {{TownshipIcon|Winter|nolink=true}}.


{{Icon|Stone|type=resource}} is used to build buildings of all levels. A large amount of stone is needed for high-level buildings.
In addition to these four seasons, there are three rare seasons which may only occur under certain circumstances:
* {{TownshipIcon|Nightfall|nolink=true}}, which may only occur while {{TownshipIcon|Statue of Bane}} is the current worship
* {{TownshipIcon|Solar Eclipse|nolink=true}}, which may only occur while {{TownshipIcon|Statue of The Herald}} is the current worship
* {{TownshipIcon|Lemon Season|nolink=true}}, which may only occur after a Township Relic has been located in {{Icon|Ancient Relics}}.


{{Icon|Bar|type=resource}} is produced from {{Icon|Ore|type=resource}} and {{Icon|Coal|type=resource}}. It is used to build mid- to high-level buildings.
While worships with rare seasons are active, these seasons have a 20% chance of appearing in place of any of the regular seasons when the current season ends. While a rare season that requires a Worship is active it is not possible to change the current [[#Worship|Worship]]. Once a rare season ends, either another rare season may begin with a 20% chance, or the cycle of regular seasons continues where it left off.


{{Icon|Ore|type=resource}} has no use, except to be converted into {{Icon|Bar|type=resource}}.
Unlike other seasons, {{TownshipIcon|Lemon Season|nolink=true}} only lasts for 24 hours instead of the standard 72 hours.
{{TownshipSeasonTable}}


{{Icon|Coal|type=resource}} is consumed by buildings built in the Snowlands biome. In addition, it can be converted into {{Icon|Bar|type=resource}}.


{{Icon|Rune Essence|type=resource}} is used to build high-level buildings.


{{Icon|Herbs|type=resource}} provide a very small {{Icon|Health|type=township}} bonus, but are mainly used to be converted into {{Icon|Potions|type=resource}}.
== Tasks ==
Tasks are a set of requests from your Township for item donations, bounties on monsters, building township buildings or, rarely, earning skill XP. In return, you will receive either {{Skill|Township}} Skill XP, Township Resources, {{TownshipIcon|GP}}, {{Icon|Slayer Coins}}, or items.


{{Icon|Potions|type=resource}} are consumed by citizens over the age of 55, and provides a small {{Icon|Health|type=township}} bonus. If there are not enough {{Icon|Potions|type=resource}}, a 40% {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} penalty is applied.
Tasks can be divided into two broad categories: Main, and casual. A complete list of tasks, their requirements, and their rewards can be seen on the [[Township/Tasks|Task list]] page.


{{Icon|Leather|type=resource}} has no use, except to be converted into {{Icon|Clothing|type=resource}}.
=== Main Tasks ===
Main tasks may be completed once, granting the task's unique rewards upon completion. Certain Township related {{Icon|Shop}} purchases and trades within the [[#Trading Post|Trading Post]] are unlocked once a certain amount of main tasks have been completed.


{{Icon|Clothing|type=resource}} is consumed by buildings built in the Desert biome, and provide a small {{Icon|Health|type=township}} bonus.
=== Casual Tasks ===
Casual tasks are randomly assigned to the player and may be completed more than once, with up to five new tasks being assigned each day. The maximum amount of casual tasks which can be held at the same time is five, and may be removed by either:
* Completing the task and claiming its rewards
* Skipping the task for the stated {{GP}} [[GP]] cost, where the cost is equal to the total amount of [[Experience Table|experience]] required to reach the next Township level, up to a maximum of {{GP|10000000}}


==Buildings==
The daily refresh of casual tasks does not remove incomplete tasks - they must be removed using one of the methods stated above.


=== Upgrades ===
Casual tasks can provide a combination of {{GP}} [[GP]], {{SC}} [[Slayer Coins]], {{Skill|Township|nolink=true}} experience, and [[#Resources|Resources]] as a reward, where the amount of the currency and experience rewards is determined as follows:
{{:Township/UpgradeBuildingTable}}
* The amount of {{Skill|Township|nolink=true}} experience is equal to 9% of the total [[Experience Table|experience]] between the player's current Township level and the next level
* The amount of {{GP}} [[GP]] is five times the amount of Township experience awarded
* The amount of {{SC}} [[Slayer Coins]] is 1,000 times the player's {{Skill|Slayer}} level


===Biomes===
== Shop Items ==
Each building inside the Desert biome consumes {{Icon|Clothing|type=resource}} 60/tick. If there is not enough {{Icon|Clothing|type=resource|nolink=true}}, then total {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}} for the entire Town is divided in half.
One of the ways Township interacts with the rest of the game is by unlocking a variety of useful {{Icon|Shop}} purchases.
 
{{ShopTownshipTable}}
Each building in the Snowlands biome consumes {{Icon|Coal|type=resource}} 30/tick. Without {{Icon|Coal|type=resource|nolink=true}}, all buildings in this biome have the following benefits reduced by 75%: {{Icon|Worship|type=township}}, {{Icon|Happiness|type=township}}, {{Icon|Education|type=township}} and all production.

This page is up to date (v1.2.2).
This article is about the Township skill. For training the skill, see Township/Training.
Township

Township is a skill which tasks the player with running a town inside the land of Melvor. Similar to Farming, it can be trained passively. However, unlike Farming, Township has no Mastery levels, and uses a unique tick system of progression. Each hour, the town will advance by one tick, during each tick Resources and Coins.svg  will be gained, which may then be reinvested into the town or converted into a number of Consumables and other resources for use in other skills.

Over time, both the Health of the town's Population and efficiency of Buildings will deteriorate, with buildings requiring Repair in order to remain fully productive.

Town

A Town contains Buildings that are used to produce Resources and Coins.svg  GP for the player. The buildings are built within Biomes, where each biome can accommodate different types of buildings and is subject to different production bonuses provided by the selected Worship.

Building and Upgrading

To construct buildings, first select a biome - a list of available buildings for that biome will then be revealed. Clicking on the build button for a building where the skill level, population, and the cost requirements have been met will then construct the selected quantity of that building. Once constructed, buildings cannot be destroyed or downgraded (with the exception of Worship related buildings, which are destroyed when the current worship changes).

Once the maximum amount of a particular building has been constructed, an option to upgrade that building to the next tier will become available, provided an upgrade exists and the skill level and population requirements have been met. Upgraded buildings will provide a greater benefit than the previous tiers of the same type of building.

The cost of building can be reduced with some Worship bonuses and in the following ways:

Repairing Buildings

Buildings which have been built will initially start with 100% efficiency and then degrade randomly over time - for every town update there is a 25% chance that each building will degrade by a flat 1%, down to a minimum efficiency of 20%. The exceptions to this are all storage buildings ( Storehouse, Warehouse, Repository, Large Repository), which do not degrade over time. The current efficiency of a building can be seen as a percentage in the top-left corner of that building's tile. While degraded, buildings which provide Resources or Stats will provide less of that resource or stat.

There are two ways to return a building to 100% efficiency:

  • Repair the building, at the cost of the resources stated at the bottom of that building's tile
  • If the maximum number of a building has yet to be built, constructing another one of that building will also fully repair that building. This has the benefit of avoiding the repair cost that would otherwise have to be paid

The repair cost of a building depends on the cost of constructing the building (after any building cost reducing bonuses), the building's efficiency, and any increased or decreased repair cost bonuses, where each Market built decreases the repair cost by 0.25%. The minimum repair cost is 1 resource. The repair cost of a building can be calculated as follows:

[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Repair Cost} = \frac{\text{Base Building Cost}}{3} \times \text{Buildings Built} \times \left ( 1 - \frac{\text{Building Cost Reduction %}}{100} \right ) \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Repair Cost %}}{100} \right ) \times \left ( 1 - \frac{\text{Building Efficiency %}}{100} \right ) }[/math]

Where:

  • Buildings Built is the number of buildings currently built within the biome in which the repair is taking place
  • Building Cost Reduction % is capped at 80%
  • Repair Cost % is the result of [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Increased Repair Cost - Decreased Repair Cost} }[/math]
  • Building Efficiency is the current building efficiency percentage which can be found in the top left corner of the building

Biomes

There are ten biomes in total, where a different assortment of buildings may be built within each. Some of these biomes have level and population requirements that must be met before they may be accessed. Depending on the selected Worship buildings within some biomes can produce more or fewer resources than the same buildings within other biomes.

Stats

Statistics are various properties in the Town that do not take up Storage space. These can be seen as cards immediately above the various Resources for a town.

Population

Population is a core feature of Township. The population of a town affects how much skill XP is gained per tick (1 XP is provided per citizen, before any XP bonuses), and is a requirement for many Biomes and Buildings.

The population of a town can be increased by constructing more Basic Shelters or upgrades to that building which provide population. The population is also affected by Happiness, as the town's population is increased by the current happiness percentage, and Health, where for each 1% reduction in health the town's population is also decreased by 1%.

If any buildings providing population or happiness degrade or if the health of the town decreases, then the town's population will decrease also - this can be alleviated by ensuring these buildings are regularly Repaired and the health of the town is maintained at or near 100%.

Storage

Storage allows Resources to be stockpiled in the Town. A Town starts with a base Storage of 50,000, where additional capacity can be gained by constructing more Storehouses. No resources can be gained beyond the maximum storage capacity.

The maximum amount of each resource that can accumulate can be configured by visiting the "Maximum Storage" section of the Township page. Here the resource cap for each resource can be configured, and if needed excess resources can be discarded by using the "Yeet Resources" section.

Happiness

Happiness is a modifier affecting the amount of Population a town has, and therefore also affects the amount of skill experience earned per tick. Happiness provides a flat increase to the amount of experience you earn, where 1% Happiness increases experience by 1%. Happiness has no limit, and can exceed 100%.

Seasons can also influence the happiness of your town, for example Winter and Nightfall reduces happiness, while Summer and Solar Eclipse increases happiness.

Happiness can be increased by building additional Gardens and Taverns, and with the following bonuses:

Education

Education is a modifier to the amount of resources each building produces. Education provides a flat increase to the resource production, where 1% education increases the amount of resources produced by 1%. Education has no limit, and can exceed 100%.

Education can be increased by building additional Schools and Libraries, and with the following bonuses:

Health

Health is a modifier which affects the Population of a town. Once Township Level 15 has been reached there is a 25% chance that the health of the town will decrease by 1% during each town update, falling to a minimum of 20% health.

The health of a town can be improved by converting either Herbs or Potions into Health, the cost of which is 10% of the current amount generated per update for the resource being converted.

Worship

Worship is a stat that provides multiple powerful bonuses based on the chosen deity. It is gained by building Chapels or Statues of Worship and has a set cap of 2,000. Note that although each Deity is associated with a different Statue of Worship, all statues provide an identical amount of worship.

Some worship bonuses are always active, while others are active when certain worship checkpoints have been reached, being 5%, 25%, 50%, 85%, and 95% of the worship cap of 2,000. In addition, some worships have the magnitude of their positive modifiers doubled during their bonus Season. For example, while Spring is the current season, the 5% bonus from Aeris would provide a +50% production bonus to buildings within Mountains rather than the usual +25%.

A deity to worship is initially selected when the town is first created, and can then be changed later at a cost of Coins.svg 50,000,000. Upon changing, the town will enter a period of unrest during which time all Chapels and Statues will be destroyed, and the efficiency of all buildings above 50% will be reduced to 50%. The consequences of changing worship are therefore significant, and the player should ensure they are fully prepared with adequate resources to repair buildings prior to changing.

All bonuses are additive with one another.

Buildings and Resources

There are a total of 13 Township building resources that are produced by, and used to purchase buildings:

  • GP
  • Food
  • Wood
  • Planks
  • Stone
  • Bar
  • Ore
  • Coal
  • Rune Essence
  • Herbs
  • Potions
  • Leather
  • Clothing

The production of all resources can be increased through Education, stacking additively with any regular modifiers.

GP is a special type of resource that is deposited directly into the player's Bank, while the other 12 resources are kept within Storage. This is the only resource that is not affected by resource production bonuses.

The 12 primary resources may be used within the Town to construct buildings, or traded via the Trading Post to obtain items for the player. The amount of resources produced by a building can be calculated as follows: [math]\displaystyle{ \textrm{Production} = \textrm{Base Amount} \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\textrm{Biome & Building Production Bonus}}{100} \right ) \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\textrm{Education} + \textrm{Resource Production Bonus}}{100} \right ) \times \frac{\textrm{Building Efficiency}}{100} }[/math]

GP is earned by taxing the town's Population, where the tax rate starts at 0% and increases by 10% for each Town Hall that is built, up to a maximum of 80%. Citizens are taxed every town update, and the amount of GP earned in tax from each citizen is Coins.svg 1.5 for every 10% of tax rate. The amount of GP earned can be affected by Township specific GP production modifiers, such as those present within some Seasons, although is not affected by global GP modifiers such as from Aorpheat's Signet Ring.

Trading Post

The Trading Post enables players to exchange their Township resources for various Consumables and other resources for use within other Skills. Trading becomes available once the player has built at least one Trading Post, with the resource cost of trades decreasing by 0.33% for each trading post that is built.


Seasons

Seasons are periods of time during which modifiers affecting the quantity of various Resources and Stats relevant to that season are active. Seasons last for three days each, with the first season when a town is created being Spring. Once a season has ended the next season will begin, with the regular seasons progressing in the following order: Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.

In addition to these four seasons, there are three rare seasons which may only occur under certain circumstances:

  • Nightfall, which may only occur while Statue of Bane is the current worship
  • Solar Eclipse, which may only occur while Statue of The Herald is the current worship
  • Lemon Season, which may only occur after a Township Relic has been located in Ancient Relics.

While worships with rare seasons are active, these seasons have a 20% chance of appearing in place of any of the regular seasons when the current season ends. While a rare season that requires a Worship is active it is not possible to change the current Worship. Once a rare season ends, either another rare season may begin with a 20% chance, or the cycle of regular seasons continues where it left off.

Unlike other seasons, Lemon Season only lasts for 24 hours instead of the standard 72 hours.


Tasks

Tasks are a set of requests from your Township for item donations, bounties on monsters, building township buildings or, rarely, earning skill XP. In return, you will receive either Township Skill XP, Township Resources, GP, Slayer Coins, or items.

Tasks can be divided into two broad categories: Main, and casual. A complete list of tasks, their requirements, and their rewards can be seen on the Task list page.

Main Tasks

Main tasks may be completed once, granting the task's unique rewards upon completion. Certain Township related Shop purchases and trades within the Trading Post are unlocked once a certain amount of main tasks have been completed.

Casual Tasks

Casual tasks are randomly assigned to the player and may be completed more than once, with up to five new tasks being assigned each day. The maximum amount of casual tasks which can be held at the same time is five, and may be removed by either:

  • Completing the task and claiming its rewards
  • Skipping the task for the stated Coins.svg  GP cost, where the cost is equal to the total amount of experience required to reach the next Township level, up to a maximum of Coins.svg 10,000,000

The daily refresh of casual tasks does not remove incomplete tasks - they must be removed using one of the methods stated above.

Casual tasks can provide a combination of Coins.svg  GP, Slayer Coins.svg  Slayer Coins, Township experience, and Resources as a reward, where the amount of the currency and experience rewards is determined as follows:

  • The amount of Township experience is equal to 9% of the total experience between the player's current Township level and the next level
  • The amount of Coins.svg  GP is five times the amount of Township experience awarded
  • The amount of Slayer Coins.svg  Slayer Coins is 1,000 times the player's Slayer level

Shop Items

One of the ways Township interacts with the rest of the game is by unlocking a variety of useful Shop purchases.

Skillcape

The skillcape can be purchased from the store for Coins.svg 1,000,000 after the player reaches Township Level 99.

The superior skillcape can be purchased from the store for Coins.svg 10,000,000 after the player reaches Township Level 120.

Skillcape Name Requirements Effect
Township Skillcape Township Skillcape Township Level 99 -15% Township Building Cost (Does not affect GP cost. Capped at -80%)
Superior Township Skillcape Superior Township Skillcape Township Level 120 -20% Township Building Cost (Does not affect GP cost. Capped at -80%)

Pet

B has a 1-in-120 chance to be unlocked each time a town update occurs. The other Township-related pets are purchased in the Shop after meeting their conditions.

Pet Name Effect
