Guide

Creating a faction

To create a faction, a player must first obtain a citadel. Citadels can be placed on any unclaimed chunk, and picked up by sneak-interacting with them, if they don't belong to any faction. To create a faction, a factionless player must place a citadel, interact with it and click “Create” button. From there, the player is allowed to name the faction and choose a color. It's important to note that the faction's name is immutable, while color can always be changed from the citadel's menu. Every claimed chunk has a border drawn around it with the color of the faction and cannot be disabled. Players can toggle borders by pressing B by default or using the /f borders command. Creators of the faction will always be set as the leaders.

Inviting players, ranks transferring, ownership, leaving

Every faction has to have a leader, who is the owner of the faction. From there, factions have officers and regular members. Officers are able to do additional things within the faction's context, such as: inviting, expelling or placing claims. Members can be promoted and demoted with /f promote and /f demote, respectively. Leader can change the leader of the faction using /f setleader command. Members of the factions will have an additional name tag field that displays their faction affiliation.

Chunk veins and passive yields

Chunks can hold valuable resource yields. Players can view veins by sneaking, which will give them a UI indicator of the vein in the chunks they are currently in. Veins can have 3 different qualities: Poor, Fair and Rich, the quality affects the total yield. The display shows you the item, amount of items that you will get, within square brackets and up 2 percentages. First percentage shows the chance of you getting the items. A second percentage value is responsible for an extra item, which displays a chance for getting a single extra item. It's important to note that the same item can have multiple chances to drop, as it's possible for an item to have multiple drop chances, with each chance having their percentage. Certain veins can occur at different rates in different dimensions. All vein-specific settings can be adjusted within the warforge/veins.cfg config file.

Yield items will be deposited into the chunk's claim on set intervals, configured within the main configuration file.

Expanding Claim area and citadel upgrading

To expand your claim area, players with rank officer or higher can place claim blocks. Currently, there are 2 claim blocks: basic and reinforced. They differ in strength, which decides the amount of points that attackers need to gain in order to win a siege. Depending on the configuration, you may have citadel level system enabled. Level system restricts the amount of claims that a faction can have. Preventing players placing extra claims if the limit is reached. To level up your citadel, an officer or higher needs to go into the citadel and press the “Upgrade Citadel” button. This will open a GUI that will ask the player for specific items in order to advance. If the player has the requested items and presses the “Upgrade” button, the items will be deducted from the player's inventory and the citadel will level up. Amount of levels, their claim limits and required items can be configured in warforge/upgrade_levels.cfg config file.

Sieges

Sieges allow factions to attack other factions, unclaiming their chunks and preventing them from being claimed, or even taking over the claim. Sieges can be started by a faction by placing a siege next to the enemy faction, opening the menu, and selecting the chunk that you want to siege. If the faction is not having a losing penalty active, the siege will begin.

During active siege, attackers, and defender will have an overhead display about the progress of the siege. The siege is a tug of war between attackers and defenders, where killing the enemy gives points to their respective side. The timer ticks down
