I code plugins for free and now I am a rip of artist? Kids like you simply does not seem to understand what being a plugin developer means. I spend many hours each day working on free software. Noone ever thanks me but occasionally asholes like you pops in and say something really mean. If I could I would hit you hard in the face.

Try uploading it by ftp to your plugins folder. Do not use the auto plugin installer.

If you pay me 1000$ I can help you get your server working. The plugin works fine. It's just that you are an unexperienced server owner. See this plugin has 1.6 million downloads. It would be nice with a personal assistant helping you would it not? But I'm just one person and I don't have time to help you all <3

I think you are confused as to how permissions work.
1. All permission nodes can be found @ http://www.massivecraft.com/factions-owner#permissions
2. Configurations can be found in the "mstore" directory. "mstore" can be found next to your worlds / plugin folder

You have failed to check your JSON syntax. My suggestion for you? Unless you are smarter than you seem:
1. Stop your server. 2. delete everything in the "mstore" directory. 3. Start your server. 4. Re-configure your newly generated configurations in the "mstore" directory. Do not mess up this time.

Posted Aug 28, 2013Can someone spare some time to look over my issue? I've already tried Googling this for the better part of the day with no luck. It looks like the Factions plugin has a hardcoded feature where neutral players cannot be harmed inside of their own territory. I have unpacked Factions.jar and removed the following code from FactionsListenerMain.java:
However, even after doing so, the issue continues to occur as if I had not ever removed the code at all. Is there another way for me to manually remove this feature? Please don't suggest that I declare them as an enemy to solve my problem. I want the feature disabled completely. Thanks.

Posted Aug 28, 2013So on my server animals are despawning randomly, but all at once. I set up a test area and only those in a faction claim despawned. Those that were in wilderness did not.
