Higher twig upkeep

A plugin that makes twig upkeep more expensive.  It could have a config file with 1.0 being default.  2.0 would mean twig costs twice as much upkeep and so on.  It is to help discourage twig builds so people upgrade on PvE servers.

But the players are still playing... they just build twig and survive in it for the monthly wipe making it too easy.

If someone made this plugin it could just be called like "Upkeep Modifier"  and basically the upkeep can be tweaked for every tier twig/wood/stone/metal/hqm to the admins desire.  Then upkeep can be broken down by resource instead of just the single convar

You can warn players when they build twig that it will be removed if its still twig in 1 hour

If you explain what is your server, how it works - maybe i will give you better solution

I think that is unrealistic to check every base for every player and warn them with hundreds of players on a monthly wipe PvE server.  Its like making upkeep on the server more expensive but just for a specific tier.  I think it is a brilliant idea that would let server admins penalize players for building with twig and not have to spend tons of time checking every player base across a huge map.

Its far easier to go through the plugins list and maybe use NoDay plugin where you can set the decay rate for all building materials ,  you can also block the storage of each of those materials in your TC.
A warning message can be in your "WelcomeMessage" message, Server Info, InfoPanel, Welcomer or Server description , *not that anyone ever reads any of it,

I would love to clean them up every hour, just not manually.

* my post above should have quoted the "NoDecay" plugin, using this will rid you of twig structures

When a DecayEntity spawns, if it's twig, increase its upkeep.upkeepMultiplier.
