Visit<br \/>\nthe plugin&#8217;s bstat site to view the metrics being collected<br \/>\n![BStats Signature](https:\/\/bstats.org\/signatures\/bukkit\/ImprovedFactions.svg)<\/p>\n<p>## The provided Modules \ud83e\udde9<\/p>\n<p>### Core<\/p>\n<p>The core module is the main module of the plugin. It provides all the basic functionalities of the plugin. This includes the management of factions, claiming, inviting, and kicking players. The core module is required for the plugin to function properly, therefore it can&#8217;t be disabled.<\/p>\n<p>![Rank gui](https:\/\/github.com\/ToberoCat\/ImprovedFactions_new\/blob\/main\/branding\/media\/rank-gui.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Wilderness<\/p>\n<p>The wilderness module is an optional module that allows players to teleport to the wilderness. This module is useful for players who want to explore the world or gather resources far away from faction claims. The wilderness module can be enabled or disabled in the config file.<\/p>\n<p>![Wilderness Teleport gif](https:\/\/github.com\/ToberoCat\/ImprovedFactions_new\/blob\/main\/branding\/media\/wilderness.gif?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Dynmap<\/p>\n<p>The dynmap module is an optional module that integrates Improved Factions with the Dynmap plugin. This module allows players to view faction claims on the Dynmap, making it easier to see which areas are claimed by factions. The dynmap module can be enabled or disabled in the config file.<\/p>\n<p>![Dynmap Integration](https:\/\/github.com\/ToberoCat\/ImprovedFactions_new\/blob\/main\/branding\/media\/dynmap.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Home<\/p>\n<p>The home module is an optional module that allows players to set and teleport to their faction&#8217;s home location. This module is useful for players who want to quickly return to their faction&#8217;s base or other important locations. The home module can be enabled or disabled in the config file.<\/p>\n<p>### Power &#038; Raid<\/p>\n<p>The power &#038; raid module is an optional module that adds an advanced power system to factions. This module allows factions to gain or lose power based on various factors, such as player deaths, kills, and territory control. Factions with low power are vulnerable to raids, making it important for players to manage their power carefully. The power &#038; raid module can be enabled or disabled in the config file.<\/p>\n<p>#### Power Dynamics<\/p>\n<p>Factions gain power through online members, used for claiming more chunks. Each claimed chunk consumes power over time. Faction power is influenced by member actions:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Member Addition:** Power increases based on a configurable base value, favoring smaller factions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Online Member Accumulation:** Members contribute their full power potential, with a bonus for simultaneous faction activity.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Claiming Chunks:** Each claimed chunk consumes power, with costs increasing based on the faction&#8217;s total chunk count.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Ally Power Sharing:** Factions share a fraction of accumulated power with allies.<\/p>\n<p>#### Overclaiming &#038; Raiding<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Unprotected Claims:** Claims become raidable when a faction can&#8217;t afford the base claim power cost.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Overclaiming Process:** Requires an enemy faction member to stay in the claimed chunk for a set time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Allied Assistance:** Allies can offer help by sending power.<\/p>\n<p>Refer to the attached screenshot for a visual reference, and see `power-raids.md` for detailed implementation information.<\/p>\n<p>![Power System](https:\/\/github.com\/ToberoCat\/ImprovedFactions_new\/blob\/main\/branding\/media\/power_raid.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Chat<\/p>\n<p>The chat module adds a faction chat into the game, where faction members can communicate witheach other only. <\/p>\n<p>## Compatible Plugins<\/p>\n<p>The following plugins might be of interest for you, when dealing with factions<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Papi allows for placeholders.
