PvPIndex Factions is a long-term modernization of the classic Factions experience for modern Paper servers. The goal is simple: revive Factions with a timeless architecture, reliable persistence, clean gameplay UX, and API-connectable systems that can integrate with modern server ecosystems for years to come. If you love classic Factions gameplay but need something maintainable, scalable, and integration-ready, PvPIndex Factions is built for exactly that. > **TeamsAPI integration available** - PvPIndex Factions connects natively with TeamsAPI to expose faction data to other compatible plugins and services. Requires TeamsAPI 2.4.0+.

It is an active refactor effort to make Factions: - Easier to operate in production - Easier to integrate with APIs and external systems - Easier to maintain across future Minecraft/Paper updates - More consistent for players and staff This project keeps the recognizable Factions identity while replacing legacy internals with a modern service/repository model and optional integration adapters. ## What is modernized vs legacy Factions Compared to older Factions-era plugins, PvPIndex Factions focuses on: - Modern command ergonomics and guided help UX - Persistent invite lifecycle with login notifications - Better map readability and interaction flow - More complete claim/unclaim modes - Configurable GUI-driven navigation - Optional tax/economy control for faction banks - Cleaner permissions and admin workflows - Soft-dependency integrations that fail gracefully - Documentation and operational runbooks for real server owners You keep the Factions gameplay loop, but gain a modern operational foundation. ## Why server owners choose PvPIndex Factions - Modernized `/f` command experience with familiar muscle memory - Persistent faction invites with login-time invite notifications - Advanced land control: `claim`/`unclaim` modes (`one`, `square`, `circle`, `fill`, `auto`) - Interactive `/f map` with clearer territory context - Faction bank with deposit/withdraw/transfer/history and optional tax engine - Configurable `/f` GUI via `gui.yml` - Scales from standalone setup to larger integrated networks ## Feature overview ### Faction lifecycle - Create, rename, describe, and disband factions - Member administration with invite/revoke/accept/decline flows - Leadership transfer and rank movement (promote/demote) - Fully manageable custom roles (`/f role ...`) with configurable priorities and prefixes - Clear onboarding through `/f help` ### Land and map - Claim/unclaim behavior designed for both casual and advanced use - `square`, `circle`, and `fill` modes for territory management - Auto claim/unclaim modes for movement-driven workflows - Modernized `/f map` display and improved territorial context messaging ### Economy and bank - Faction bank deposit, withdraw, transfer, and history - Optional periodic tax engine with configurable rates/intervals - Works with Vault-based economy stacks ### Homes and warps - Faction home and warp management - Warp listing/set/delete flows - Compatibility-oriented command structure for player familiarity ### Faction chests - Shared faction storage with `/f chest` for fast default chest access - Named chest management: `/f chest list`, `/f chest open `, `/f chest create `, `/f chest delete ` - Officers can create/delete chests; all faction members can open/list based on permission nodes - Default chest name is configurable via `factions.team-chest.default-name` - Per-faction chest count is configurable via `factions.max-team-chests` (default `1`) ### Faction flags - Per-faction boolean toggles: `pvp`, `friendly-fire`, `explosions`, `fire-spread`, `open` - Officers manage flags in-game with `/f flag set`; defaults and editability configurable per-flag - Admins override any flag via `/fa flag` regardless of the player-editable setting ### Audit log - Officers and above can page through their faction's action history with `/f audit [page] [--action=]` - Staff can view any faction's history with `/fa audit [page] [--action=]` - Tracks claims, unclaims, relation changes, kicks, promotions, demotions, bank transactions, and merge events - Page size configurable via `factions.audit.page-size` in `config.yml` ### Faction merges - `/f merge send ` — officers can propose dissolving their faction into another - `/f merge accept ` — officers of the target faction accept the request - All claims, warps, bank balance, and members are transferred atomically; the sender faction is then disbanded - Online target members are notified immediately when a request arrives ### Internationalization - Eight built-in locale bundles: `en`, `es`, `de`, `fr`, `pt-BR`, `ja`, `zh`, `ru` - Players choose their language with `/f language [code|reset]` - Server default locale configurable via `factions.language.default` in `config.yml` - All command output, GUI item text, and map display respect the resolved locale - Message lookup order: player locale → server default → English → inline fallback - Community locale contributions welcomed — see the [i18n guide](https://pvp-index.github.io/pvpindex-factions/i18n) ### Power and war mechanics - Configurable power model with per-player max, regen rate, loss on death, and grace period - Optional kill power rewards, with configurable flat or scaled amounts (scale rewards by victim/killer power ratio) - Optional death streak multiplier — consecutive deaths in a short window incur escalating loss - Optional inactive member exclusion — long-offline members do not count toward max-land - Overclaiming with enemy-relation guard and optional offline protection (block raids when all defenders are offline) - Raidable state broadcast — members (and optionally the server) are notified when a faction crosses the raidable threshold - War shield system — admins assign a daily UTC protection window; during the window territory cannot be overclaimed - `/f powerhistory` — paginated per-player power change log (alias: `/f phist`); shows death, kill, and passive-regen events ### Notifications and QoL - Invite visibility for online and returning players - Territory and event notifications - Player-level notification controls - PlaceholderAPI role placeholders: `%pvpindex_player_role%` and `%pvpindex_player_role_prefix%` ## API and integration direction PvPIndex’s long-term direction is an API-connectable Factions core. That means systems are designed to be: - Adapter-friendly - Service-oriented - Compatible with external plugins/services without hard coupling - Reliable even when optional integrations are absent This creates a stable base for future extensions, panels, tooling, and ecosystem plugins. ## Integrations PvPIndex Factions runs standalone, and integrates when available: - Vault (economy API) - PlaceholderAPI - TeamsAPI - WorldGuard / WorldEdit - dynmap (3.x, tested 3.4 – 3.8) - EssentialsX - LWC / LWCX - EzAuction (faction auctions) - EzShops (faction shops) - EzRTP (avoids faction claims) - EzClean (avoids faction claims) - DiscordSRV (faction event broadcasts to Discord) ### Integration downloads - PlaceholderAPI: https://modrinth.com/plugin/placeholderapi - WorldEdit: https://modrinth.com/plugin/worldedit - WorldGuard: https://modrinth.com/plugin/worldguard - dynmap: https://modrinth.com/plugin/dynmap - EssentialsX: https://modrinth.com/plugin/essentialsx - LWC: https://modrinth.com/plugin/lwc - Vault API: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/vault.34315/ (official dependency page) - TeamsAPI: https://modrinth.com/plugin/teams-api - EzAuction: https://modrinth.com/plugin/ezauction - EzShops: https://modrinth.com/plugin/ezshops - EzRTP: https://modrinth.com/plugin/ezplugins-ezrtp - EzClean: https://modrinth.com/plugin/ezclean - DiscordSRV: https://modrinth.com/plugin/discordsrv ## Configuration and operations Generated config files: - `config.yml` - `roles.yml` - `database.yml` - `messages.yml` - `gui.yml` Storage options: - Embedded H2 for quick setup - MySQL/MariaDB for larger networks Docs include: - Installation and setup guides - Full config reference - Feature-by-feature documentation - Integrations setup notes - Operations runbook and troubleshooting ## Visual preview GUI: ![PvPIndex Factions GUI](https://i.ibb.co/Gfh4VcLv/image.png) Map: ![PvPIndex Factions map](https://i.ibb.co/Jw4qzdqC/image.png) Faction info: ![PvPIndex Factions info](https://i.ibb.co/Y469RX8j/image.png) Faction info page 2: ![PvPIndex Factions info page 2](https://i.ibb.co/qMX3smFq/image.png) Top tab-complete: ![PvPIndex Factions top tabcomplete](https://i.ibb.co/5XY0cN0X/image.png) Faction Flags: ![Faction Flags overview](https://i.ibb.co/qF7gtGBZ/image.png) Set flag state: ![Set flag state](https://i.ibb.co/DD16mXCM/image.png) Flag autocomplete: ![Flag autocomplete](https://i.ibb.co/FLz53n5r/image.png) Audit log: ![Faction audit log](https://i.ibb.co/Q3vFWYDq/image.png) Admin power history: ![Admin power history command output](https://i.ibb.co/XZvQDyLm/image.png) ## Commands at a glance - Player root: `/f` (`/faction`, `/factions`) - Admin root: `/fa` (`/factionadmin`) - Highlights: `/f create`, `/f invite`, `/f join`, `/f claim`, `/f unclaim`, `/f map`, `/f info`, `/f top`, `/f bank`, `/f warp`, `/f chest`, `/f audit` ## Designed for migration-minded communities If your server comes from legacy Factions communities, PvPIndex Factions is intentionally built to feel familiar while offering a cleaner and more future-proof base.
