Posted Mar 25, 2013is it possible to have world guard regions inside a factions territory force build/break/use for all players? there is the config option "worldGuardBuildPriority", but this one only works on safezones?

The power loss routine shouldn't be affected by server reboots. Each player's last login time is stored in their data and referenced by the routine. AvidityMC's problem is unrelated to yours and actually covered in the FAQ above.
@Antelrob
You see the part of your error that says "Factions v1.6.9.1"? That should be a clue. When you update CraftBukkit you should also update all plugins.

Posted Mar 24, 2013I am having problems with Factions, I just reset my nether but was unsure how to reset all claims in the world. However I brushed that aside, however I received complaints that wilderness land cannot be claimed at all in fact any land at all cannot be claimed in the nether. It gives the message "The land is protected". Any support on this also if there is a way to reset all the claims in only the nether that would be great.

Posted Mar 24, 2013HELP
I always get this Message in the console and its really bothering me. And I created a new world through Multiverse and this message makes the server crash because of the block updates in the new world. I removed factions to see if it was Multiverse but it was indeed Factions fault.

o, I guess it was a temp craftbukkit bug for the claimed land issue with creepers, because it's fine now.

@Bret I was talking about Faction territory, personally. I don't get the damage issue in Warzones or Safezones after verification. I just assumed it was the same problem. Though creeper explosions in warzones seem to destroy torches?
Also, with regards to the power loss issue, I think @AvidityMC has found the culprit. Our server reboots twice a day.
As far as Spigot is concerned... There's no problem with Factions running on Spigot, I think it might be particular to the build he's using.

Make yourself leader of Wilderness? You can use claim for wilderness to claim back land from other, legit factions.

Posted Mar 23, 2013Finally have some free time to work on Bukkit plugins a bit. I'll be doing so over the next couple of weeks off and on, probably.
I'll be looking into the TNT minecart explosions not being prevented and other reported issues.
@Vitaminous
Just tested Factions 1.6.9.4 in Craftbukkit dev version 1.5.1-R0.1 build 2704. Creepers didn't damage blocks in SafeZone or WarZone (with "warZoneBlockCreepers" setting enabled), though it did hurt my player in the WarZone as expected.
Also tested power loss from being offline and it still works correctly as well ("powerOfflineLossPerDay" setting).
Can't duplicate those problems. Make sure you're running an up-to-date dev build of Craftbukkit, and create a ticket if you still have a problem with your exact Factions and Craftbukkit build numbers listed.
@CorruptedHelix
Scoreboard API? Interesting, I'll probably look into that. Thanks for the heads up.
@leefster
Based on the stacktrace, looks to be Spigot. We don't officially support custom builds of CraftBukkit.

Power loss overtime is broken. Creeper protection is broken.
List goes on, it doesn't 'fully work', it runs, but some features aren't working anymore.
