In the mcore folder there is a folder called "factions_uconf@default"
Open this, then open the instance.json file.
At the top you will see:
"factionIdNone": "5709b29f-8293-4ec3-8db5-7dbe02341af6",
"factionIdSafezone": "4645c24e-130c-46b5-b245-472d43d1a489",
"factionIdWarzone": "e9736e75-e45c-41f6-88a7-16afa8acadfc",
"defaultPlayerFactionId": "5709b29f-8293-4ec3-8db5-7dbe02341af6",
I'm not 100% sure what exactly you're trying to do, but if you wanted to make a default faction (ie /f create Noobs), then in the instance.json above you would change the "defaultPlayerFactionId" to the ID of the Noobs faction. To get the ID of the "Noobs" faction you made, you can go into your factions_board@default file (located in the mcore folder), Ctrl+F "Noobs" then put that "hostFactionId" in replace of the defaultPlayerFactionId I mentioned above.
I haven't tested this myself, but it should work. Hope this helps :)

A lot has changed in the 1.8/2.0+ versions of Factions. Commands have changed, and the way claiming land for Safezone/Warzone has also changed (along with mostly everything else).
Type /f help in game to see all of the new commands.
"/f show | /f who" is now "/f f NAME"
"/f power" is now "/f p"
Etc, etc.
In order to claim land for a Safezone/Warzone, type /f join Safezone with Admin bypass on. Then, you can either do your regular /f claim, /f autoclaim, or /f claim # to claim a radius. To unclaim the Safezone and re-claim it as Wilderness again, you can either join the Safezone again and type /f unclaim, or type /f claim when in the faction Wilderness. When leaving the Safezone/Warzone "factions" it will automatically place you in the Wilderness faction.
Hope this helps :)

1. I've just double checked players do lose power on death on our server with 2.0.3.
2. The latest dev version of essentials chat works fine using the following in the essentials config:
format: '[{factions_relcolor}{factions_roleprefix}{factions_nameforce}]§r {DISPLAYNAME}§7:§r {MESSAGE}'
Unfortunately {factions_relcolor} doesn't work yet, but I've put it in for when it hopefully does.
The typo that bugs me is 'Allways' for peaceful instead of 'always' and what's with the 'NOO'? I assumed that the grammar in some of the messages was trying to be 'olde worlde'!
The main error we get from Factions in the console is from splash potions being used in a world that should be ignored by Factions.

Posted Jul 31, 2013Hey there, we have a bug in our server caused by 'Factions' We have had this bug for a while but never isolated it to a single plugin but after removing every plugin 1 by 1 we have confirmed that it is factions that is causing this.
The bug: When tnt is covered by water, it still destroys any blocks that it is touching and ignores water protection
How do we fix this?

Well, maybe the file isn't located where you (and me) expected it to be. Check your server folder, there is a another set of config files next to your worlds folders, not inside the plugins folder as it used to be. (At least in my case)
. . . . .
Putting that aside. Is it possible to make new players (first log in) auto join a "default" faction? I been through the settings but haven't found a way to do this. I wanted to use command block for this, but they can't call any faction commands either. Any suggestions would be really appreciated!
Thank you :]

Posted Jul 30, 2013@Antibes Errors i am having with this faction plugin: 1) power does not decrease on death, which is bad becase no one can claim other land. 2) faction names do not show next to playername in chat, using essentials chat, vault, and groupmanager.
there are no errors given in console for any plugin i have. =/ so that leads me to believe the features are just not properly working.

Wow I would never have thought of that! Thanks so much. I'm fairly new to factions and I don't understand why lots of servers still use the older 1.6 versions. I first got the 2 version but the commands that players where used too ( f show f who etc. ) were not there. I encountered some problem with it, I believe it was the faction names in chat. I don't understand the two versions of factions. Are they both still being developed?

Posted Jul 30, 2013@brettflan, so, i downloaded the most recent update of your factions plugin, and the wording is so wierd! what happened to the good english your plugin has always had? now it sounds like someone who just learned english wrote it =/
for example:
/f claim: "You claimed land for your faction!" or something close to that is how it has always been. this is how it used to be.
now, it says: unclaiming land: "you did buy {world} {coordinates} for wilderness from your faction" claiming land: "you did conquer {world} {coordinates} for your faction from wilderness"
also, there is no /f show, /f power, /f list, or /f who anymore! your commands are all weird now. like when claiming land you have to choose a number now?? i used to be able to just type "/claim safezone" now i have to type /f claim 1 safezone. its very confusing.
If i just type /f claim safezone, it says; "invalid integer: safezone" and it doesnt provide any help for the proper syntax. you should add an example with the error so its easier to figure out.

Posted Jul 30, 2013Is it possible to use a command block to call a Factions command? If so, how? I did try it and it didn't call the command when triggering the command block.

Have you updated essentials? I can't remember which version started to cause that error for me with /f home. I updated from Factions 1.6 to 2.0.3 so I could use the latest horse friendly essentials without that error and broken /f home.
Although there has been a lot of moaning about Factions 2, if everyone took the time to read the documentation it's really cool. There are a few errors and typos, but no 'show stoppers' that I've encountered yet.
