Introduction

QuickTax is a powerful tax management plugin for your server's economy! If you have always struggled with managing your server's ever-growing economy, then this may very well just be the plugin that you need! Whether it's taxing all players equally or based on their ranks or based on their balance, this plugin supports it all! Want to include property tax by taxing based on claimblocks? It's possible as well! Even better, schedule tax collections so that you can set up once and let the plugin do the rest of the work! Worried about performance? the plugin does most of its task asynchronously, minimizing the performance impact that it can have on your server!

The spigot link to download the plugin can be found here. If you require any assistance, please reach out for support on our discord. Alternatively, you may also open a github issue.

Contributing

If you have code to contribute to the project, open a pull request from your fork and describe clearly the changes and what they are intended to do (enhancement, bug fixes etc). Alternatively, you may simply raise bugs or suggestions by opening an issue.

Note that as this was my first minecraft plugin, the structure of the codebase leaves more to be desired. My plan to rewrite the plugin for version 2.0.0 is delayed indefinitely until I am able to free up more time (or until a volunteer comes along 😝)
