Posted Feb 21, 2013This has probably been asked before, but how do I disable the ~ Wilderness notification? I have been searching for it and can't find it at all. I would very much appreciate some help.

Posted Feb 21, 2013Few small issues I just discovered and can't figure out why the plugin does this. There is a person on the server named "natethegreat" and usually you could shorthand commands such as "/f enemy nate" and it would work but for some reason when you type "/f enemy nate" it gives an error that says "Nope you can't" why is that?
Also not really an issue but kind of an annoyance. If someone names their faction "Wildernesss" you run into the same problems of having to write out the full name instead of shorthand because of the reserved name "Wilderness". Also works with "Safezone" and "Warzone"

Posted Feb 20, 2013Could you add support to blocking sign interaction of enemy land maybe?
Like we use craftbook and it got gates and bridges etc.
Would be nice if we could block it for other factions.
And there are many other plugins that use intractable signs.
So think it wouldn't be a bad feature.
And thanks for adding the pr with the new recruiter roles and stuff gonna be really useful :)

Request a per world chat plugin, so each world can have it's own config. Herochat has it per channel, so something close to that is what you need.

Posted Feb 19, 2013Suggestion: Can you make the Faction Tags per world instead of server wide? I have multiverse and I am not finding a way to disable the Factions tag in my creative world but keep it up in my Factions world. If this does exist can someone point me in the correct direction? Thanks

Posted Feb 19, 2013Hi, we been using Factions quite long. We are going to have a reset, should we stay with 1.6 a little longer, or upgrade to 1.8? I would like to ask you Brettflan what would you do?
What are the improvements for us to go with 1.8?
Thanks!

Ah, that would explain it. Pardon me while I go delete the downloads still over on GitHub. Bang bang. Our releases here on BukkitDev are always up-to-date.
EDIT: by the way, IRT GitHub release downloads:

That little turd of a link is In the MassiveCraft downloads
Looks like yesterday I picked up 1.6.9.2 from this bukkit page, got error. Tried the "latest stable build". Got more error which was instantly followed by a headache and a decision to deal with it later. Between yesterday and today you snuck a functioning version in that I missed.
I'm just glad it's all working. As a server owner I also have people bombarding me with shit that is stupid to me. I guess I get the impatience. Sometimes we just miss stuff and that's why we're here asking for help. Try to understand.

OK, please please please tell where you got that unofficial link to the supposed "latest stable build" so I can go shoot that person. I'm guessing they're the reason for all of these bogus reports.

If you get that error with 1.6.9.4, paste your log showing it. Every person so far who has reported that error with 1.6.9.4 has shown a log which listed 1.6.9.2 or older versions, never actually 1.6.9.4.
The reason I'm not being civil at this point is that I'm tired of hearing about this same error for 1.6.9.4 that in fact is what happens when you run older versions (not 1.6.9.4) in the last few CraftBukkit versions.

I don't dick around with odd versions if I'm not desperate. My first attempt (and what I was using at time of plea for help) was the current bukkit RB and factions 1.6.9.4. I absolutely got that error. The only reason I bothered with other versions was to troubleshoot. I know I'm not paying for tech support or anything here, so I won't complain about your sass, but it wouldn't kill you to be a bit more civil.
EDIT: Whoopsy. Yeah I guess in my frantic attempts to eliminate the error I was using 1.6.9.1 which I downloaded from a link that said "latest stable build" rather than a version number. So. Wasn't using 1.6.9.4 at time of plea. Still though. I wouldn't be here if it worked the first time. Which was Bukkit 1.4.7-R.1.0 and Factions 1.6.9.4
EDIT EDIT: Oh. Look. It updated to 1.6.9.4 today. I started new server yesterday with factions and got the error. Didn't really try troubleshooting till today. I see where the confusion came from. New version works well with the latest dev build of bukkit (probably with RB too, but not going to piss around with it anymore). My bad... mostly. problem solved.
