Posted Apr 30, 2013Hey guys.
I have an issue regarding factions.
When I install factions and create a faction on my server it gives me no faction tag.
So I go into essentials chat and then I go to format and I add in [Faction]
When I do this I go into game create a new faction and all I get is [Faction] Derezz; Hello
I get exactly that. [Faction] not the faction name but just what it says there ^^
Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Cod you please describe your problem more indepth including version number of factions and what Exactly you mean.
Does the tag/name not show up in chat? If so, read the FAQ.
@ursak
No, factions does not track the IP in any way. If it is your desire to enable this, you could propably code his yourself by extendig factions.

If you have a permision plugin that supports it,yes.
@seane96
Try to add the node manually, it should work though.
@xXxBob
Try to read through the full documentationa and start over on a test server.

>FAQ@xXxBob
Provide info, we provide help as good as we can.
@babababagagaga
The players can define this themself. And no, there is no command to set this for everyone. Per default, your own faction and your allies (short ALL, not to confuse with everyone).

Posted Apr 29, 2013In the new update everyone can destroy other peoples factions how do i turn protection on like in the old faction version? i added these commadns idk if these are the ones effecting it please help asap! /f config factionPermDefaults door recruit /f config factionPermDefaults button recruit /f config factionPermDefaults lever recruit /f config factionPermDefaults build recruit
I found a way of preventing one faction to not let everyone build and destroy their faction by typing the command: /f perm (name) all build no. Is there a way of applying that to every faction and all the new factions that will be created?

Posted Apr 29, 2013The faction chat string {faction_relcolor} still doesn't work with Herochat in the new update. I've made sure the config has the Herochat hooks configured correctly. It's a small issue but its been a peeve of mine and many other plugin users since the new chat strings were added. It would be awesome if you guys could fix it or if it is fixed, possibly help me locate the issue on my end. I've contacted the Herochat developer and he says its an issue with factions. A reply would be appreciated. Thanks!

With the new version you can do that using perms. View current perms like so:
/f perm wilderness
Then to remove a specific relation's ability to build, for example neutral players (you'd want to disable each one individually that is enabled though):
/f perm wilderness build neutral false
You would change the perms for SafeZone the same way.

The "all players in every faction are default members" problem occurs when you try to downgrade from 1.8.x back to 1.6.x. It doesn't occur when upgrading from 1.6.x to 1.8. That's one of the reasons for the warning about downgrading not being supported.

Posted Apr 29, 2013This is probably the worst update I have ever done! When we updated, it made all the players in the their faction are now default! There are no faction admins or mods anymore! Now we are stuck with a giant mess to clean up and our players are upset over this! You let me down factions. My opinion, don't update and/or go with factions plus.

Posted Apr 29, 2013Could you add a way for people to disable the "~ Wilderness" message in worlds you specify?
This is for people that use Hunger Games, Mobarena, Spleef, Vanilla survival, because it's misleading that it is wilderness when you are not in the faction world.

Are you sure you read it? That isn't what it indicated at all. Correct example: /f perm SomeFaction container yes, or just /f perm SomeFaction to see the current perms for SomeFaction.
@seane96
To cover everyone in the default perms:
/f config factionPermDefaults container recruit
/f config factionPermDefaults container ally
/f config factionPermDefaults container truce
/f config factionPermDefaults container neutral
/f config factionPermDefaults container enemy
If you don't want any faction leaders to be able to then change the perms for their faction to remove that access, make sure the factions.perm permission isn't granted. It is included in the factions.kit.halfplayer permission kit and above. Alternately you could remove "leader" from the default perms for "perm" itself via /f config factionPermDefaults perm leader. Same result either way.

And when i try to open a chest it says "<factionname> does not allow you to use containers!"
So am i doing the wrong command?
EDIT: Can you post the command that i need to use so i don't keep wasting your time.
