Posted May 21, 2012How do I disable enderpearls in safezone/warzone but I allow them in wilderness and faction territories? Basically, we don't want players to enderpearl teleport in and out of the city safezone or in warzone. Thanks.

Posted May 20, 2012I was wondering if you could add a option in the config so you can disable pvp in the wilderness.
Thank you.

Posted May 20, 2012I believe that factions would be even greater if had better chat features. I like that you curently can activate to chat only with your factions member, but I believe it would also be great if you add a way to separate the whole chat, I mean for example like towny: if you say something just people around certain blocks to you will read it and if you want everybody to see your message you will write /all message

That is why he recommend you to NOT use the Beta/Alpha builds. He removes some of the functions.
"NOTE: this is a beta release of our 1.7 development branch. Not a stable production release, a beta. There is almost no documentation yet for the many changes included beyond those in the change logs for this and previous 1.7 alpha releases. A few features from the 1.6 branch have been removed and may not be returning. You additionally will not be able to safely downgrade from a 1.7 release back to a 1.6 release. Based on these reasons, this release is not recommended for regular users. That said, since the 1.6 branch is almost ready to be retired, we would like some people further testing this build to catch any remaining problems before making a 1.7 stable release."
Please read the change log next time you update. Everything are said there.

I'm going to assume you're referring to a 1.7.x release. In that case, it's one of the faction flags now, /f flag. In this case: /f flag [faction] permanent yes
@jhs232
Already in.

Olof = Cayorion, to the right.
@UnitedFactions
That's the default, false. If you had previously set it to true, it won't have been changed back on its own without somebody changing it (purposefully or not).

It's... beta still. Hopefully no major bugs at this point, but the new Access system isn't heavily tested yet. On the other hand, there will likely be no further 1.6.x releases and there are several differences between 1.6.x and 1.7.x which you would need to get used to. It's up to you.
@sanjar12345
This was the better place to ask rather than creating a ticket since it's not actually a bug, but I answered your ticket anyway:
http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/factions/tickets/223-factions-auto-kicking-someone-every-hour/
@Byrkoet
There's no way to disable it AFAIK. As for the bypass message, that only shows if you have the permission needed to enable admin bypass mode.
@UnitedFactions
Well, as I've said earlier I'm not personally going to be actively developing any Bukkit plugins at this point beyond helping Olof get 1.7 ready as a stable release and retiring the 1.6 branch. Olof will still be developing the plugin, and as always we do accept most reasonable pull requests.

Posted May 18, 2012Hi Brettflan,
I am very happy with the new update on the Factions plugin, and I really appriciate your work. I love to see your updates and so and here by want to thank you for your work on Factions.
I also really like that you implemented the UnderWaterTNT fix ;) However I tested it for you just now and it could be done a lot better. I have a friend here that made me a plugin, then made it private, however I've published it to Github and made a Bukkit Dev page a month ago ;) Maybe if you are intressed in improving the coding, / like bigger hole first shot, protecting the cannons, actually. Please check this: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/underwatertnt-cannons/ https://github.com/SupaYoshi/UnderWaterTNT
I hope you can do something with this ;) Maybe improve it for yourself. :) Or use it. Do what you like ;) IF you need more information please email me / pm me whatever.
Anyway another thing I wanted to note, you have the following settings in the config:
"worldsNoClaiming": [], "worldsNoPowerLoss": [], "worldsIgnorePvP": [], "worldsNoWildernessProtection": []
However there is no "worldsIgnorehomesTeleportEnemyDistance" or a setting to deactivate "homesTeleportAllowedEnemyDistance" in just 1 world. You see we have a "Shop world" were players can sell they're items. However they are not able to warp to they're fhome because sometimes an enemy is close by. Because it is pretty busy in the Shopworld this can happen often and can be found very annoying ;) In Safe zone this problem is fixed I know.
But we had to disable claiming in the Shop World, so claiming of SafeZone is disabled too ;)
Another issue we have seen is the spamming with Faction Tag, description ;) Which was very annoying and happens quite often sometimes. Maybe we could introduce a tax on Faction Tag changing, but that is not the point I think ;) -> The reason I have not done this is even more odd, with 1.6.7+ I was able to create a faction, and disband it and get 1000$ in return however the Factrion cost was 0$ so people could get money by creating Factions. Then I disabled factions economy and it was fixed.
This is my config: http://pastebin.com/ngEyHNud
I want to thank you for the time reading this, and putting time in it,
Wish you a great day,
Greetings
SupaYoshi
