Posted Jul 4, 2013@livengoodb Quoting so people curious about what this user asked don't have to find it themselves: "and also I have the faction tag enabled and have [FACTION] plugged into the chat formatting in essentials and it still shows [FACTION][Default]Livengoodb for an example.."
Having the same issue. Anyone know of a fix?

Posted Jul 4, 2013HELP! Everything on the plugins work fine except for one thing. I want factions to cost money, example: If I have a balance of $150 (using iConomy) and I type /f create SuperCool... I will lose $100 from my money for creating a faction. Or If I have $50, It won't let me create a faction. Also for claiming a land. I enabled it on the config file but it's stil not working.
This is my config file "/mstore/factions_uconf@default/instance.json"

I had the same problem as you, your going to feel like such an idiot just like me! All you have to do to fix it is to go to /mstore/factions_mconf/instance.json and in there, there should be a "chatSetFormat": false, change it to "chatSetFormat": true, and everything should be good man!

Posted Jul 4, 2013I dislike how there is no longer a faction chat, that was actually really useful. I don't see why it was necessary to change a good plugin, obviously meant to improve it, but by removing features that people used it doesn't really improve in my opinion.

Posted Jul 4, 2013Ahhh.... Sorry but the new versions (from mcore) Sucks :/ alot.. you can't even do /f claim! all the commands have changed and it requires another plugin to run.. We can't just run it with essentials or whatever it requires..

Posted Jul 4, 2013When I downloaded factions I wanted the version where you are either mod or admin, not leader or officer... I also wanted where you are either in a faction or NOT in a faction, not where you in wilderness and safezone and warzone have their own factions?! This may have been my bad but is that an older version? If so can someone give me a link or tell me how to get it. Also my config seems to be different than most other :/ I dont have the options to select what things people can access in enemy territory and all that :/ Once again this may have been my bad, but can someone please tell me what I need to do or download?

Posted Jul 4, 2013Is there a plugin that will protect players farms from having animals killed by people not in the faction ?
Thanks!
