Having issues with pvp. Players are reporting that they are unable to harm faction players they are neutral with in the neutral factions land. The attackers are forced to enemy the faction before they can do anything. If this is intended, it shouldn't be. I also don't see an option in the config to alter this.

Your tags.json file appears to be corrupt. Delete it and let Factions create a fresh copy of it.

Posted Apr 10, 2013Nopowerloss seems to not be working.. I am trying to disable powerloss in a few of my worlds so that it only happens in the factions world. I did what the plugin says to do, and the worlds are under nopowerloss properly. (I know it is done properly because I also use the no claiming, no pvp and no wilde protect and they work just fine with identical worlds) Can someone assist? Thank you.

Posted Apr 9, 2013EDIT: After tests, players can't even build or destroy in their own factions territory unless they're an OP this is a serious problem for me please help me soon.
None of my players can destroy anything even if its in the wilderness? How do I change that?

if you have the right permissions you can unclaim all of safezone by /f unclaimall (i cant remember if you have to join safezone or not but if so just join it and run that command)
