Easy Factions and Claims

by OverWatter

Easy Factions and Claims lets server players form factions, set ranks, make alliances and fight over claimed territory with control points.

ForgeNeoForgeServer required, client optionalMozilla Public License 2.0Open source1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Factions are managed by their members through ranks, and leaders can form alliances with other factions to coordinate attacks. Each relationship between two factions is stored separately, and when two factions disagree about their status the lowest level chosen between them applies. Friendship is set on both sides, so an ally must also mark the other faction as friendly before the bond counts in both directions.

The mod is built for multiplayer servers and runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. The server is required, while the client is optional, so players can join without installing it. The mod is open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, and its source code and issue tracker are public. Its optional companion is JourneyMap, which can show faction territory on the map.

Key features

  1. Faction ranks

    Members are grouped into ranks that the faction can manage, making it easier to organize a team on a server.

  2. Alliance relationships

    Factions can change their relationship with others, and alliances are synced so every member sees the same status.

  3. Friendly fire control

    Friendly fire can be switched off within a faction, so members do not hit teammates during a raid, and allied factions can fight together safely.

  4. Objective control points

    King-of-the-Hill style control points reward the faction that holds them at regular intervals.

  5. Relationship in player tags

    The status between a player's faction and the viewer's faction appears in the player's head tag, separating friends from foes.
