Posted Jan 10, 2014So no one can tell anyone else, how to enable tnt in claimed areas, or how to disable the factions chest protection. That makes this plugin garbage for pvp servers, Ive found nothing in any of the documentation or in game help to explain how these 2 simple things can be accomplished, troll me if you want, but just help me figure out how to enable tnt in faction claims and how to disable CHEST PROTECTION. even if it another plugin that overwrites factions chest control.
If I cant remove chest protection from faction claims with the new faction chest permissions. Then Ill have to stop using factions plugin on my server for the first time in over 3 years!

Posted Jan 10, 2014I agree. Hundreds of people have posted these same errors. As of now, it doesn't look like Factions is going to fix them.

It's located in the folder where your craftbukkit.jar or server.jar is. Go to Mstore folder and you will find configs there.

Posted Jan 10, 2014How do I make it so that every time you want to claim a new area it gets more expensive? I know it was in the older verson of Factions but I can't really find it right now.

Posted Jan 10, 2014I've had this issue now for multiple weeks and first time I sent this about Jan 3rd and then again Jan 4th since the message was disappeared to another pages due to so many messages. I am sending this once more and hopefully I get some sort of fix.
I got an issue, I brought it up in bukkit forums and MCPC forums but nobody has answered so I will bring this up here too. Bukkit forums here: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/error-with-the-server.214604/ and MCPC forums here: http://www.mcportcentral.co.za/index.php?topic=5929.msg30097#msg30097
These are two errors in pastebins I have: http://pastebin.com/FpjJhjdr http://pastebin.com/YizbTj9T
All works well but factions plugin, it wont disband faction. It gives the message that faction is disbanded but also gives red error message and the faction remains. Please help.

Posted Jan 10, 2014Cayrion is too "busy" to answer issues and solve problems their plugin has. Factions has gone down so much, it used to be so awesome plugin but now they have added Mcore requirement and that f*cks things up hard time.

Posted Jan 9, 2014Hello there,
Looks like Factions is having some trouble starting up. I'm using CraftBukkit 1.7.2 R0.3, and get this error:

Not sure if I've missed anything else. (Java is 7 update 11 or something like that, Windows x86_64)

Posted Jan 8, 2014Factions started giving this to me: Error occurred while enabling Factions v2.3.0. I didn't edit anything new and it stops working! It's weird because it has been working for a week on my server, I didn't update anything in mcore/factions/vault.
All of a sudden, after I /reload-ed the server. Just a second before the server reloaded, this message was in the logs:
Console : [22:24:06 WARN]: [mcore] Task #324564 for mcore v7.0.1 generated an exception Console : java.lang.NullPointerException: ofrom Console : at com.massivecraft.mcore.store.Coll.copy(Coll.java:215) [?:?] Console : at com.massivecraft.mcore.store.Coll.loadFromRemote(Coll.java:557) [?:?] Console : at com.massivecraft.mcore.store.Coll.syncId(Coll.java:689) [?:?] Console : at com.massivecraft.mcore.store.Coll.syncSuspects(Coll.java:717) [?:?] Console : at com.massivecraft.mcore.store.Coll.onTick(Coll.java:767) [?:?] Console : at com.massivecraft.mcore.MCore$1.run(MCore.java:116) [?:?] Console : at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_7_R1.scheduler.CraftTask.run(CraftTask.java:53) [craftbukkit.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.2-b2974jnks] Console : at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_7_R1.scheduler.CraftScheduler.mainThreadHeartbeat(CraftScheduler.java:345) [craftbukkit.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.2-b2974jnks] Console : at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R1.MinecraftServer.u(MinecraftServer.java:587) [craftbukkit.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.2-b2974jnks] Console : at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R1.DedicatedServer.u(DedicatedServer.java:250) [craftbukkit.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.2-b2974jnks] Console : at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R1.MinecraftServer.t(MinecraftServer.java:545) [craftbukkit.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.2-b2974jnks] Console : at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R1.MinecraftServer.run(MinecraftServer.java:457) [craftbukkit.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.2-b2974jnks] Console : at net.minecraft.server.v1_7_R1.ThreadServerApplication.run(SourceFile:617) [craftbukkit.jar:git-Bukkit-1.7.2-R0.2-b2974jnks]

This is Factions, not FactionsPlus. But when you do go yelling on that page, at least give them an error.

Posted Jan 6, 2014Hi. I'm having problems with my server at the moment. Whenever i put in Factions in my plugins folder with Mcore, it says "Could not load 'plugins\FactionsPlus.jar' in folder 'plugins'" and it says the same thing for Mcore. I have the latest versions available for both and they just don't work for my server. My server is also the latest version available.

Posted Jan 6, 2014Is there a way to make this work with griefprevention? So to use GP to set and protect claims, then Factions to deal with groups of players in faction that control those claims.
