Can you add a way to make Faction tags only work in certain worlds?

thanks for your response. I see there has been an update released for vault in the last day or so. I will update to this and let you know how I get on.

Had all change logs saved to a txt file but not really any mantion of warzones other than the /f access command but I think I got it by adding "BUILD": [ "NEUTRAL", "LEADER", "ALLY", "OFFICER", "ENEMY", "MEMBER", "TRUCE" ],

to the warzone "faction" in the faction.json file. Since the mc session server is down though I can't really check to see if that worked yet.

The WarZone is a faction pretty much like any other in 1.7.x. The attributes available through /f flag are what make it act as you expect from a WarZone.
EDIT: I recommend reading through the changelogs for each 1.7.x file listing for more info on what has changed in 1.7.x versions.

@05wardj

That indicates the Factions version and CraftBukkit version are not compatible. Triple-check your CraftBukkit version and download a version of Factions in our Files area which is listed as compatible with it.

Ok sorry im still confused. Im not in a faction but I have a special world and did /f claim warzone 100 , How would I set that up so all players can do anything there.

Edit: I see nothing in /f flag or /f perms that has anything to do with warzones.

The rest of the error message (the part with the stack trace) would indicate what the problem is.

@rythar

In 1.7.x you can configure each faction through faction Flags (/f flag) and Perms (/f perm). In this way you can also create custom special factions with specific attributes of SafeZones and/or WarZones.

In 1.7 is there a way to allow player to break/place blocks in a warzone? I know we could in 1.6 but I can't seem to find the option in the config anymore.

Factions sets a zero balance when it creates a new economy account through Vault, so it sounds like that would be a bug/limitiation in Vault.

Howdy

been using this plugin since I started a server. great work!

I have recently switched to using the essentials economy system and have found that the starting cash for players also appears to be the starting cash in faction banks. Have you come across this before? any ideas on how to stop it?

I'm using Essentials 2.9.3

Factions in use is 1.6.9.1

Any help is appreciated!

Check your server startup log? Obvious first step if a plugin fails to load.

@Jackshow01

Likely the factions.json or board.json data file was damaged, which usually happens from somebody manually editing one of them. Whatever the case, it should be likewise indicated in your server log with an error message.

I'm was merely looking to narrow down issues and compatibility, i don't really know what it could be.

@Jackshow01

o: Sorry to hear that... Maybe Factions is just a little buggy on the newest CB versions?

Uhm, All of my faction land has been unclaimed. Any reason why? (I'm a server owner and every single factions land was unclaimed)

I have it working..... but like the chat formatting is messy >.<

What plugins do you have running along side of this? What version of CB and Factions are you running?

What version of essentials chat does work?

This is newest EssentialsChat + Newest Factions. Older EssentialsChat don't format correctly.
