Define Relationships
Change your relationship with other factions and alliances.

Easily distinguish between friend or foe. Your relationship status is reflected in each player's head tag.

Tags getting too long? You can set abbreviations! What you prefer to see on the tags (name or abbreviation) can be configured client-side.

⚙️ Mechanics
Faction Ranks
Delegate authority to keep your faction running smoothly.
- Officers: Promote trusted members to Officer status.
- Permissions: Officers have the power to invite new recruits, kick trouble-makers and modify map claims. If the Objective Control is installed, they can also claim the rewards for your faction
Territory Claims
Factions are rewarded claim points in a configurable interval, which can be used to claim territory. When a member of a Faction A is killed by a member of another (not allied) faction B, B receives war points against A. If the amount of war points B has against A is equal or higher to the cost of a chunk, A will lose (war_points/cost_per_chunk) chunks in the current dimension, and B receives an amount of claim points equal to the cost of the chunks.
- Personal chunks: players can claim personal chunks, which they own forever and can't be conquered through PvP.
- Admin Chunks: admins can claim chunks, which in turn can't be conquered or claimed by players.
Chunk Resetting
Unclaimed chunks can be optionally reset by admins to clean up the world. Running the command will not have an effect until the server is restarted.
