So offline protection still exists, but just in the form of a general config option? Any other important features removed?

The 1.7 branch should be pretty stable at this point. It does have several features removed that people might or might not care about (like online/offline distinction to certain faction protections, individual protections for different types of explosion rather than a unified explosion protection, etc.), and it's not fully documented even in the changelog notes. So, something to try out before switching to if possible.
@Yiruso
Mobs can spawn outside a SafeZone and wander in. They just won't attack you while you're in the SafeZone. Otherwise, you should double-check your server startup log to make sure Factions loaded properly.

I am using 1.7 and I have not had an issue with it yet. I have been running 1.7 on my main server with about 70-80 online at a time and it runs beautifully.

Is 1.7 stable enough that you would recommend using it?

Posted Nov 9, 2012Are the /f config commands not working with 1.4.2? I am op on my server and I am trying to get the factions set up how we want but I don't have access to the actual file. Can you tell me if there is anything I can do? The guy who owns the server is not as active as I am so getting him to do stuff can be difficult at times.

Posted Nov 9, 2012Hi,
For some reason whenever I speak in faction or alliance chat, my message also appears in main chat. My members don't seem to be having this problem though, only people with '*' permission. Is this a problem with ChatManager perhaps? Any guidance on how to fix it would be great.
Thanks

Posted Nov 9, 2012Hello I have a problem with "chatTagPadAfter".
Right now I have my Essentialschat format like this:
<{FACTION}{DISPLAYNAME}> {MESSAGE}
and "chatTagPadAfter": true so if I understand correctly chat should be displaying like this. for ex. <FactionName Prefix Kzkas> blabla But instead it's like this: <FactionNamePrefix Kzkas> bla
How can I fix this problem without adding space in to before prefix in permissionsex, cause then players without fc in chat is like this: < Prefix Kzkas> blaba
Thank You for help.

Posted Nov 9, 2012For people having chat problems, is it really that hard to read our FAQ above and follow the link for configuration advice?
@Kingrobichaud
If you downgraded from 1.7.x to 1.6.x, that's entirely on you.
@T4LGoose
You can do this in 1.7.5+ through the Access system, which is effectively an improved replacement for Ownership. Any number of players and even entire factions can be granted access to a specific chunk of territory.

Posted Nov 8, 2012Can you please make it so you can allow members outside of a faction to be added to a claimed chunk's owner list? This would make renting out land to outside members possible. Thanks!

Posted Nov 8, 2012So far no complaints from my members. :)
Still not home, but I monitor chat/commands while at work.
Hopefully with the performance tweaks you made I can add a few other things to the server.
Thanks again for your work Brettflan.
