Groups
System Groups
With TownControl V4, we are introducing new static groups. In version 5 these were renamed to system groups. They are quick helpers to get you to start with basic tasks. The following is a list of system groups and their abilities.
Note
system groups can not be deleted.
Administrator
This group is automatically assigned to the town owner. Any user with this group will be able to read, write, update, and delete from ever section in your town.
Citizens Only, Police Only, Fire Only, Service Only, Legal Only, Education Only
These groups grant read, write, update, and delete permissions in their respective section only.
Creating a group

Enter you're the name of the group and select create.
Warning
Group names cannot be changed if you need to rename a group delete it and add a new one.
