A faction plugin would be useful. Please make one!
i dont see a donwload link...
That's because this is a plugin
request not a release
Oooh, seems like a challenge. I am a big fan of Bukkit Factions myself, so I may take this up challenge when I get the free time.
Would anyone be so kind as to explain (in programmer's terms if possible) what Factions is about? What does it do, how does it interact with the players / world, what commands it uses etc.
Essentially, what Factions does is it allows people to form a "clan" and ally with other "clans" and claim land that cannot be touched by other players directly. Factions have an important aspect called faction "power". For each individual player in a single faction, the maximum power level goes up by 10. As players are killed, their power level goes down and regenerates slowly. If a faction has more chunks claimed than their current power level, then another clan can come by and overclaim the land, making it theirs. Its basically a big territory based warfare plugin.
The main command is /f
Commonly used commands are /f claim (to claim a chunk for a faction), /f create [name] (to make a faction), /f sethome (sets a faction home), /f home (tp to faction home) and /f ally|enemy|neutral [name of other faction] (set relations with other factions.)
I will add DiamondToaster, this plug-in is also interesting the fact that in the fractions is the head of the faction , he appoints people to take their faction as well , and removes them from office . That's about the power of each player , who is 10 , is a good idea to plug in , but I do not think that it should be restored , if the hero has lost his territory , he should win it, so plug more tempting . It will be very interesting RPG servers.
