Managing Faction

Managing Faction 🛠️

This page will guide you through how to create a simple faction and how to manage it.

Creating a faction

To create a faction simply run /f create <tag> <name> command in the chat, where tag is the tag of your faction and name is the name of your faction. Remember to omit < and > signs.

Name and tag can only be alphanumeric and their length can be specified in the config file.

If you somehow make a mistake with naming your faction or decide to change its name or tag later you can use /f rename <newname> and /f tag <newtag> commands.

Oh, and the tag can be colored as well! Just use /f tagcolor <color> to change the color of your tag.

Creation cost 💰

NOTE: This feature is available since 1.16.5

By default creating a faction is free.

However, there actually is a way for making creation cost something. It can be configured in the configuration file.

There are few built-in cost types that you can use:

• power
• having-power
• items

Add-on plugins can add their own cost types.

Now, let's say you would want to make creation cost 4 iron ingots and require player to have at least 8 power. You could do the following in the config file:

creation-cost {
     costs=[
            {
                type=having-power,
                value=8
            },
            {
                type=items,
                value=[
                    "minecraft:iron_ingot|4"
                ]
            }
     ]

Take a look at comments inside config file to get to know more. 😄

Description & Message of the day

You can set description of your faction with /f desc <content> command. Description will be visible while viewing information about your faction.

Motd (Message of the day) can be set with /f motd <content> command. Motd is show to faction's memebers everytime they connect to the server.

📜 Viewing information about the faction

To view information about the faction, you can use /f info command.

You can also specify a faction name in Info Command /f info <faction> to view information about other faction.

✉️ Inviting others to your faction

If you have a faction, you for sure want to invite others to your faction so that you can together rule the world!

To invite other players, simply run /f invite <player> where player is the name of the player you want to invite.

They will have 2 min to accept your invitation by typing /f join <faction>. If they don't do it, then you will need to send the invitation again.

Note: A player can only be a member of one faction.

Insted of invition others you can also make your faction public by using /f public command.
