@TickleNinja Search through changelog of factions if there's even such an option.

@mrjoeman1200 The option is already there. Go to /plugins/factions and edit factions.json You'll find a list of your factions there, including factions: '-1' SafeZone, '-2' WarZone and '0' Wilderness. You can edit "tag" to whatever you want (that's the title of the faction) and "description". If you want you can even make description empty (""). Oh and also you can use colors. For exmaple my tag for wilderness is: "§2Dzicz".

Also is there any reason I can't do the commands through other plugins? I'm trying to make it so when you Left click with a map it does a /f claim but the it's almost like factions only likes it when a player types the command and ignores it.

Is there a command to grant someone power? For example like /f grantpower Steve 5. And not a permentant bonus, I just want to create an item like a "potion" using another plugin to grant the power instead of it regenerating over time.

Would it be at all possible to add the ability to change the titles of "SafeZone" WarZone" and "Wilderness"

You see, this feature would make what im trying to do with my server work perfectly! I hope you consider it!

Again, it's your host's own custom-designed system which they wrote to interface with the BukkitDev site. I can't help you. My suggestion is to contact them for help with their system.

Well see it was working before, I just don't understand why "factions, "Factions, or any of those combinations aren't working, because it did originally. I mean, I'll try to contact them, but any more suggestions? Oh, and also this is happening for like all the plugins I try installing, so it can't be the server provider, it's just something I'm doing wrong. This is the setup for it: URL: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/factions/ Name: I put Factions, usually. Than it says this: Error while downloading plugin: Plugin does not seem to have a release.

@Heifinator

Monster spawning and aggression per faction will be possible in 1.7.

@Crayder

There are the options "disablePVPBetweenNeutralFactions" and "disablePVPForFactionlessPlayers" which could result in what you're describing, but those both default to false. If those are still both false, what you're describing shouldn't happen.

@HunterMaslowsky

You might try it as "factions", no uppercase letters. If that doesn't work, take it up with your host since it's their own custom setup which is providing that functionality.

Quick question regarding the faction installing. When I try to upload the plugin to my hosted minecraft server, I have to use the website to do it; the hosting company is called global7hosting. When it tells me to put in the dev.bukkit url in, I do that and than it asks for the name of the plugin and I put in "Factions" - without the " of course, and it says, "This plugin does not have a release." Does anyone have a idea of why this is happening?

How am I able to set it so that you don't have to enemy a player in the Wilderness to be able to hit them?

Note sure if you have a place to suggest features. But I will put them here!

First of all, is their an API system of any kinda to allow "modules" to be made to modify factions behavior?

I would love if you could add a conf option to disable monsters in claimed land, not just peaceful land.

I think I duplicated that problem by loading Factions 1.6.6 on RB 1.1-R6. I'm guessing it might be due to the plugin failing to load properly.
In case that is the issue, a note to people: do not load older versions of Factions on CraftBukkit 1.1-R5 and above or you might lose all claimed land. Make sure you're running 1.6.6b.

I'll try to duplicate that problem again later, and if Factions failing to load properly does indeed wipe the board, I'll see if there's something I can do about that for future releases.

Well for the most part the plugin works but it appears everyone on my server is going to have to reclaim their territory. Seems its forgot. Maybe the way the chunks are handled now? Anyone confirm?

I'm not sure. I haven't tested in 1.2 yet, only up to 1.1-R6.
