Posted Nov 4, 2013I use ColorMe for custom prefixes and suffixes, I can't get this version of factions to play nice at all and display both faction name, prefix, username and suffix.Currently I can only either get it to display [fac] user, or [prefix] user [suffix] The old versions of factions worked fine with these settings
I'm lost on how to set up the new faction config to recognize the extra name tags.

You forgot the mcore plugin. Look in the dependencies list of a plugin before installing it. -.-

Posted Nov 3, 2013This no longer works on my server running 1.6.4 bukkit.
It was perfectly fine then randomly one day both factions and Mcore stopped working.
None of the commands work as it says the plugins are not installed.
Visible errors in the log relating to this:

Posted Nov 1, 2013I've loaded both mcore and factions on my server. But it's more diffrent to my friends servers, They don't need to use mcore. It's better without it... I can't claim safezone/warzone. Can't do type /f who or /f show. I'm used to type those commands, now i'ts /f f..
Can someone help to get it to the old way?

Posted Nov 1, 2013To the plugin creator,
I have been playing with factions as my favourite plugin on many servers, enjoying it for a good while now. Currently I am on an roleplaying server where explosions are turned off in faction land and I had the idea to make seiges more easily made. Below is part of a post I made on the topic:
... I think it would be interesting to trial that if factions want to enemy someone, you pay the price and then your own territory is open to artillery aggression, you should be able to defend yourself. There would have to some kind of declaration on part of the victim for them to be able to be bombarded, for example enemying them back.
To walls being blown to bits while the faction attacked is not online, a member's distance could have to be in the area of the faction land and within 800 blocks so they can start running around to patch up the gaps and lead a sortie.
There may be some possible factors to consider on trial, if they come up. I would not like to see a guy with a pickaxe just mine 2 blocks to jump through, that would not b as fun or realistic, sieges took months or years. This would require some tinkering with the Factions plugin when it is updated to 1.7, but imagine the epic scene, you could have a video of some god sweeping over the scene of attacks trying to scale the walls, explosives pounding into the walls and arrows whizzing down and lava pouring from above, an attractive pitch to the potential new member.
If this could be an option, it would make an astounding scenario. Or maybe an option to let the blocks of the faction 'heal' themselves, so they regenerate back fairly shortly? I know you would are most likely busy making the plugin compatiable with 1.7, but I hope you would like this idea enough to consider it.
Thanks Rocko

Posted Oct 30, 2013Is there a way to make a default tag for the Wilderness? So if people don't have a faction and are in the wilderness, they have the tag +Wilderness or something?
