'''{{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 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.

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.

==Starting your Town==
==Primary Resources==
To start, you must choose a map and, optionally, a deity to worship.
===Population===
* Map 1 is encouraged to start because its biomes have well-balanced land caps (number of buildings allowed). This will give you a taste of each biome's restrictions and production bonuses.  
Population is the most important resource in Township - without it, the skill produces nothing and earns no experience. Population cap is gained by building {{BuildingIcon|Basic Shelter}}, spending ticks will cause population to increase until it reaches the cap.
* Map 11 is a great alternative because its Forest and Valley Biomes have the highest respective land caps. These two biomes together provide all available Township buildings except for a Miner's Pit. This allows for easier building management and they do not have usage restrictions (eg. coal in the Snowlands).
 
* Map 6 is a candidate for players who choose the Ragnar deity. This is because the map has a higher land cap for the Desert and Arid Plains biomes, which Ragnar has bonuses in.
*Experience in township is earned based on the following formula:
<math>max\left(\tfrac{1 + \text{Happiness %}}{100}\right) * (\text{Population} * \text{0.01}) * (\text{Tick Length} * \text{0.01})</math>
 
*Population Gain Rate Formula:
= Math.ceil(((0.05 * this.populationLimit) / 100) * (this.TICK_LENGTH / 10));
 
*Population Gain Chance Formula:
= .4 - this.currentPopulation / this.populationLimit
 
====Workers====
The Available Workers stat shows how many unemployed workers compared to the maximum amount of working age citizens are available to the town.
====Age====
All population has a set Age that increases with ticks spent. The working age in Melvor is from 8 to 55 (?), any citizens outside of this range are not eligible to be Workers, and therefore do not impact Happiness. Population above the age of 55 have a chance to die every tick, reduced by the amount of Health in the town, which is primarily increases by having Potions from {{BuildingIcon|Herbalist}}.
====Death====
Citizens die when they reach 100 years of age or before without sufficient Health or if you run out of Food.
 
Corpses have a negative effect on Happiness and Health(?), and must be removed by building {{BuildingIcon|Cemetary}}.
 
===Storage===
Storage cap is gained by building {{BuildingIcon|Storehouse}}. With every tick spent, buildings in Township produce Resources that fill Storage until the cap. No resources can be gained past the cap, and hitting the cap will cause buildings that consume resources to continue doing so.
 
===Happiness===
Happiness is a modifier to the amount of experience you earn, it is gained from building many different buildings, and is expressed as a percent out of two times your total population. Happiness is a flat increase to the amount of experience you earn, 1% Happiness increases experience by 1%.
 
===Education===
Education is a modifier to the amount of Resources each building in township produces, it is gained from building {{BuildingIcon|School}} and is expressed as a percent out of three times your total population. Education is a flat increase to the amount of production, 1% Education increases production by 1%.
 
===Health===
Health is a mechanic that prevents elderly citizens from dying. Each citizen above the Age of 55 has a 100% chance of dying at some time before reaching the age of 100. This percent is reduced by the amount of Health in the town - 1% health decreases this chance of death by 1%.
 
===Worship===
Worship is a stat that provides multiple powerful bonuses based on which Deity you choose. It is gained by building {{BuildingIcon|Chapel} 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.
 
All bonuses are '''additive''' with one another.

==Building your Town==
#Go to the "Tasks" tab, then "Township starter guide". Our goal will be to complete all of these tasks to get bonus resources and xp.
#Our first few tasks require us to build some basic shelters, farmlands, a woodcutter camp, and a mining pit.
#Go to the "build" tab, and then notice you are in the grasslands. Tap the "forest" button to go there.
#If you try to build you will get an error- you need to buy land first! Tap the dropdown button next to the "buy more land" button to buy a higher quantity, then tap that button to buy it. Buying land costs your gp.
#Now build two farmland and one woodcutter camp. Don't buy too many right now or you'll have to restart.
#Go to the mountains biome, buy some land, and build a mining pit.
#Next go to the grasslands, buy some land, and build basic shelters. You should be able to afford 6.
#Now go back to the "Tasks" tab and then to starter guide. Claim your rewards for your first two tasks! Now we need to build six more shelters and a farmland.
#After building a farmland and five shelters we are out of wood. Time to use some ticks! First, tap the meat icon at the top to select it as green. Your new workers will now prioritize this building. Then tap the "1 (5m)" button in the middle of the screen.
#Our population has grown from 2 to 3, and we produced some food! We are interested in wood now, so tap the wood icon and use another two ticks.
#Now we have enough wood to build the 12th shelter and complete two more tasks. Now that you have the hang of it, try finishing the rest of the tasks.
==Temporary Starter Guide==
# Go with Map 11 Terran if you don't know what to choose.
# Follow the Township Starter Guide under the Tasks tab. 
# Township Experience = Population * ( 1 + Happiness Percent ) / 3.  You're goal is likely levels to start so make sure you focus on population growth and happiness.
# As early as possible, build at least 1 Woodcutter Camp and 1 Miners Pit or you will not have enough resources to continue and will need to restart.
# If you starve your town, you'll need to restart.
# Restart in the "Township Settings" tab.
# When restarting you save ticks you haven't spent. You do not get back ticks that you have spent. However, you will always have a minimum of 144 ticks when starting even if you had 0 before restarting.
# There's NO tick cap. You can store as many ticks as you'd like.
# To Upgrade or Delete a building, go to the "Town" tab. Select the biome, then tap the red trashcan to delete a building or the green arrow to upgrade it. Some upgrades have town population or township level requirements.
# Biomes have different modifiers to resource production and are effected by your Worship bonuses.
# Snow and Desert Biomes have upkeep requirements. You will not need these Biomes to start, so focus on other Biomes until you're more confortable.
# Food is a balancing act: running out is catastrophic, but usually you rather be producing building materials than a ton of extra food. If you have too much of one resource and your storage is full, use the "Yeet" tab to delete resources.
# Build 1 Trading Post once you've unlocked it. You can exchange your regular in game resources into Township ones, or vice versa. A trader arrives every 8 hours and will stay for an hour. Meaning there are 7 hours between traders or 84 ticks.
# There is no benefit to having more Trading Posts. The trader will not come more frequently.
# In order for a resource to be available for trade in The Trader, you have to have found it. Items received from Township tasks are not considered "found".
# If you need to "find" a cooked item, you can use the Squid+Pig synergy while fishing to unlock the item if your cooking level is too low.
# The Prats Hats, Malcs Cats, and Cool Rocks buildings can be destroyed after buying the upgrade from the Shop.  You do not need the buildings to receive the cat/rock bonuses, but have to wear the hats.
# Libraries are not a flat +0.25% boost.  It only boosts your current education by an additional 0.25%.  If you had 0 education before building a library, you'll still have 0 education.
