I have a somewhat large suggestion regarding the Dynmap-Towny plugin. My suggestion is simply to add some more customization or visibility options into Dynmap-Towny.

As we all know, in towny it is possible to setup multiple plot types or even make plots for sale. Those plots can then be bought by players to build on. However, in dynmap it does not show a difference between those plots and the rest of the unowned/not for sale plots in the rest of the city.

My suggestion would be to simply be to add such a functionality. This functionality would be similar to the Embassy, Shop, Arena and Wilderness plot options already available. Simply adding one that is For Sale, or Owned.

The other part of the suggestion for Owned plots would be a way to display the name of the user who owns the plot. Many players have looked to the dynmap to find an empty plot, their friends plot, or even their plot if they went exploring around a city. I think it would be easier, instead of adding a click-able info box, to add a text box that displays as a separate layer on top of the towny plots with just the owners name. Like every layer, you can set a zoom distance visbility or even the style of the text box (Such as black, 50% transparent background, light grey text).

For the plot types, I would also love to see a way of separating it from the style of the town itself. Right now, the opacity or visibility of the plot types are reliant on the town. I would like to be able to not show the standard town plots (0 opacity) but still be able to show the Shop/Embassy/Arena/Wilderness/For Sale/Owned plots.

I believe such additional customization would make the Dynmap-Towny addon plugin much greater than it already is, and provide even more awesome customization functionality to dynmap. I hope that there is a way to do it, if there is good luck and thank you for your hard work!
