@PaganZombie

Vault is optional, only needed if you want economy integration.

@dillyg10

Actually the latest Beta build (1.3.2-R0.1, build 2352) is newer than the latest Recommended build (1.3.1-R2.0, build 2340), not the other way around. It's therefore not a downgrade to be using the Beta. Other than that you're entirely correct.

@jrbudda

You can use FPlayers.get(Player player) to get an FPlayer object for a given player, which provides full access to pretty much all data and methods used by Factions itself. The getTag() method would then provide what you're after.

@Luxius96

It's on GitHub under the 1.6.x branch (main branch is 1.7.x).

@lst96

Refer to your ticket for info on chat integration in 1.7.5+. http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/factions/tickets/391-faction-tag-not-working/

Faction Tag doesn't work with 1.7.7_beta. In config it is on just doesn't show in game.

Is there any way to get the un-formatted faction tag for a player? getFactionTagForPlayer returns a string with all the optional chat pre- and post- fixes applied.

Hey guys, Brettflan has already said this, but 1.6.9.1 is not compatible with the latest build (R 2.0) You can download an older version of Crafbukkit, just go to

http://dl.bukkit.org/downloads/craftbukkit/

Click on the "R 0.1 Beta Build" and download it. Then your server should be 100% compatible with the latest release of factions :).

But, if you don't want to downgrade, the fixes that are needed are really easy to make it compatible with R 2.0. If you put it into eclipse with the 2.0 release, you will see many red lines under import statements, becuase the files for gson have moved. They have moved to just

com.google.gson.*.

So change your imports accordingly, and in P.java change line 91, and remove the lib.whatever

@bob71: that's subjective. I run on 1.3.2 just fine, better than on 1.3.1 builds. Maybe check your plugin list to see what might be causing your problems.

@tygo246: Learn how to use groupmanager and set all the permissions properly. On an unrelated note, you should never give your players OP. If you ever have to do that, you are doing something wrong. ._.

Currently, I am running 1.7.7 smoothly with the latest 1.3.2 dev build that was just released. The only thing missing is relational colors.... but from load up times to just general experience, factions is running smooth.

Did you see the screenshot? Every time I say anything it says what I said twice. Once normally and again with a prefix that says FACTION in double brackets. It's not normal. And does it normally show that Wilderness thing when you do /f who when you're not in a faction? I've never seen that before either.

Wilderness = factionless.

@bob7l

1.3.2 is not simply a test. They have a 1.3.2-R0.1 Beta release out. Even if they never actually put out a 1.3.2 Recommended Build, they are not rolling back changes made to the source. Thus the next Recommended Build (whatever version it may be) will require the compatibility changes we had to make in 1.6.9.1 and 1.7.7.
If you check the Files page you'll see that older releases of Factions compatible with 1.3.1 and older CraftBukkit versions are of course still available. Help yourself, don't be like the idiots that have been commenting below who are apparently unable to understand the concept even after being pointed in the right direction.

If you feel you absolutely must have the other changes in our two newest releases, you have two choices: either update to CraftBukkit 1.3.2-R0.1 Beta which actually seems like it might be more stable than 1.3.1-R2.0 Recommended, or download our source from GitHub and compile it yourself with that change switched back.

I suggest you compile this for RB-1.3.1.. 1.3.2 was simply a test, and is no longer being pushed.

Pretty sure anyone is allowed to do this. I mean, charging money to use a plugin is like charging money to become administrator, its fair and you pay a little money to get more commands and access to better plugins. A good example would be me charging people to make their own faction (whereas they can only join factions regularly. If this was not allowed, a LOT of servers would be breaking the law

hey, just so u know, the following server is making people pay to use YOUR plugin that YOU made with your hard work. im very angry about this, and suggest you take action because thats not ok seeing as how the intellectual property is yours, and free to download. this is like charging for torrents on piratebay. you dont do that because its SHARING.

IP: Dirtcraftserver.zapto.org:25566

note: its a server that uses the tekkit mod.

just thought you should know.

OK, so that's nothing to do with the SafeZone or WarZone then, those are always ID -1 and -2. That was cleanup of claimed land for a faction that no longer existed.
The NPE was linked to that faction being removed right as it was checking whether a monster should be allowed to spawn in one of those previously claimed locations, with the faction no longer existing. The error wouldn't have actually caused any problems.

Are you running a server which doesn't authenticate with the official Minecraft authentication server? There are apparently hacks available which would allow a user to masquerade as somebody else and gain their permissions, potentially even with custom authentication plugins installed.
