Well, recovered enough to sit at my computer most of the day again, anyway. Definitely not fully recovered yet.

A. You can set the faction Perms to allow access for a few separate things. If you can test it out, run 1.7.x once and let it create the config. You can then find "factionPermDefaults" which determines the default permissions for different relations as far as building, opening doors or containers, using buttons, and so forth. Those Perms can be set for each individual faction to override the defaults if you so desire, IIRC the command is /f perm.

B. The faction chat and ally chat system is removed in 1.7. In place of it, if you use HeroChat, then it will provide those two chat channels through HeroChat.

People considering using the 1.7.x beta builds, I highly recommend reading through the changelogs and notes attached to each 1.7.x file listing we have. They detail many major changes, new commands and config options, and so forth. Other than that, as a server Op or other person with all permissions, use the /f h command listing in-game to see the new and changed commands.

Thank you so much for your hard work!

With Herochat when I enable: "chatParseTagsColored": true I get double the chat, one in the format of vanilla chat and herochat.

This worked fine in Essentials Chat. Let me know if you need more info about this.

@dotapurex1

I usually let it make a new config then compare it with notepad and make the changes

@Brettflan Its great to see that you are back and recovered.

First off, I appreciate all the work thats been done on a plugin like this. I am having some difficulty deciding whether to choose 1.6 or 1.7, so I have a few quick questions about 1.7.*:

A) Is there a way to globally force-allow enemies to interact with things such as chests/furnaces/etc?

B) With herochat integration, does that mean that switching between things like faction-chat/alliance-chat not available anymore?

1.6.9.1 stable and 1.7.7 beta are now available.

Changelogs are on the file listings linked above. These releases will only work on CraftBukkit 1.3.2-R0.1 and above.

People running large servers should be very pleased to know that the server startup process has been vastly sped up thanks to some file I/O changes Olof has come up with. As an example, with ~ 2 MB of Factions data files, older Factions releases were taking about 95 seconds to load on my VM server where the latest two releases load in just over 1 second. Very nice. Be sure to thank Olof / Cayorion.

If you had the double chat problem simply disable the chat from the plugin by doing these changes VVVVV

"factionOnlyChat": false, "chatTagEnabled": false, "chatTagRelationColored": false, "chatTagReplaceString": "[FACTION]", "chatTagInsertAfterString": "", "chatTagInsertBeforeString": "", "chatTagInsertIndex": 1, "chatTagPadBefore": false, "chatTagPadAfter": false, "chatTagFormat": "%s§f",

Hey all you guys. I fixed the plugin 1.6.9 to work with 1.3.2 Bukkit Builds
Here is the download link. All you had to do was merge the two com folders from Googles gson.jar and factions.jar
Here is the download link
Link Removed: http://www.mediafire.com/?lk3y7bbywpjzv8u
Like if it works please!

It is because, if you are using Bukkit 1.3.2-R0.1 and using this factions plugin, the plugin isn't updated yet to 1.3.2, If you need this faction plugin, Just use the Bukkit 1.3.1. The factions plugin will hopefully be updated tomorrow, so as WorldGuard.

I bet you guys are working on this plugin now since Brettflan's last login was 3 hours ago. Thank you for all your Java Coding @Brettflan and @Cayorion
