A political party is an organised group of players that can compete in elections. They are managed using the command /politicalparty
(aliases: /polparty
and /polp
).
By default, towns and nations allow players to run for election without belonging to a political party. However, by changing the constitution, players can be required to join a political party to run for election.
A political party is created using the command /polp create <name of party>
.
Players can be invited to the party using /polp invite <player>
. Parties exist independently of towns and nations: they are not restricted to operating in a single one, and their members can belong to any town or nation.
After creation, parties can customize their:
/polp slogan <slogan>
)/polp icon <item name>
)These are both displayed on the party's entry in the party list commands, such as /polp list
.
You can chat with fellow party members using the party chat channel (/political
, or /polpc
).
Each party can only have one candidate per election. Candidates must be residents of the town or nation where the election is held.
To allow a party member to enter an election as a candidate, the party must first grant the Candidate
rank to the member (/polp addrank <player> candidate
).* The member will then be allowed to enter the election normally (/[t|n] election run
). After doing so, the Candidate
rank can be removed from the member. If the party's candidate wins the election, the party's election victory count will increase.
A candidate’s party affiliation will be shown alongside their name in election reminders, voting, and information commands.
* Party leaders and co-leaders don't require the candidate rank.
These commands be viewed in-game using /polp help
.
