That is weird. We are not protecting chunks with block-acces(like a list of blocks), we are blocking the event that runs behind the sceens(player attmpts to open a container, the event wants to fire, we block it). Could you please make screenshots and send these to me in a PM? That'd be great.

There is no way you can make changes to this, a chunk is a 16x16 block and there is no way you can change/move it.
The only way is to move your spawn area to fit 1 or 2 (or whatever) chunk, or you can just claim around the spawn area.
It doesn't always have to be perfect :(

Posted Apr 22, 2013Just tried the 1.8.1 branch, unless I did something wrong it seems trapped chests are not protected by Faction Land.
Everything else seems to work fine. :)

You don't have to put 1, try something like 8 :) /f claim safezone 8 This will claim 8 chunks away from where you are standing (all directions).
1 chunk = 16x16 blocks.
But be careful because I don't think there is a command to UNCLAIM all safe zones! so It's just better to claim radius for small numbers, or just do it manually with /f autoclaim safezone and fly away.
NOTE: Sorry I forgot to mention in my previous post that /f claim safezone 1 means it will claim 1 chunk from all directions, and not 1 BLOCK.

Try playing around with: /f claim safezone [radius=X] X means the number of blocks away from where you are standing.

Posted Apr 22, 2013@MiningWorld What I mean is, Is there an easier way to make the spawn a safezone, without having to change it. Is it posible to make the claming land 5x5,3x3,etc.

At the very moment it is not possible to do this, no. Cayorion will maybe code in such a feature in the future because it is of interest to our server aswell. I am not sure though if this addition will be public, this is up to cayorion himself.
@Welite
Such a thing did never happen to me, neither to cayorion. Anyways, Cayorion restructured/re-coded a lot of source-code in the version 2.0 (currently in development). Likewise, all problems should be erased afterwards.

Can you explain your problem?
It's just a matter of "SAFE" Zone, and "WAR" Zone. It's either /f claim safezone [OR] /f claim warzone or simply toggle on the automatic claiming (/f autoclaim safezone/warzone).
A land as a Safe Zones will not have mobs spawning in it, and PVP is disabled, also no one will be able to /f claim a safe zone, so it's always better to claim the spawn area as a safe zone.
War Zone is same as a Safe Zone but it's designed for something like an Arena, where people can just fight and have fun.
Don't forget that you can configure some of the settings in the config to the way you want it.

Posted Apr 21, 2013Hi
I would like to know if there is an automatic way we can set/assign a custom power level to a certain group (im using PermissionsEx).
For example, I want every player in the group "Donor" that I created, to have a power of 90, so whenever they join/create a faction, it will add that amount of power to the total power of the faction.
I want this to be done automatically by using a permission, is that possible? Im not sure if this can be done with the permission factions.setpermanentpower as I tried playing with it and made it factions.setpermanentpower.90, I added this permission to the group I want, reloaded the server, created a group, but nothing happened and the power was still 10 not 90 for the faction.
Help please!
#UPDATE
After some thinking, I figured our what does factions.setpermanentpower do, it only gives the permission to USE the command. Lol sorry about my misunderstanding.
Anywys, I still want to know if there is a way I can do this automatically using a permission. If not, is there another plugin out there that can make this happen?
Thanks

It's always better to claim the whole spawn as a "Safe Zone" so no mobs will spawn, no pvp (meaning friendlyfire is off) and no one can claim.
Just do: /f claim safezone [OR] toggle on the automatic claiming: /f autoclaim safezone

You have to stop the server first, then change the config and save.

Posted Apr 21, 2013Is there no faction/ally chat in 1.8 unless using herochat?
Also, I have essentials chat set to format: '[factions_relcolor][factions_roleprefix][factions_tag] {DISPLAYNAME}&7:&r {MESSAGE}' however colors don't appear. Any help on what I'm doing wrong? The role prefix and tag appear fine.

Disbanding a faction shouldn't be doing anything that would be different between CraftBukkit versions. Find the error in your server log corresponding to that and post it here with the full stack trace.
