A titlecard that states "VanillaFactions". On both sides of the text, there is a small image of a red banner with crossed swords on it.

VanillaFactions allows survival players to create, join, and edit teams without using the /team command (or any commands, for that matter). Features include:

  • Choosing a custom team name.
  • Choosing a team color from 16 options, with no restrictions on duplicate colors.
  • Choosing a custom team prefix, which displays before player usernames in chat and nametags.
  • Support for up to 32 teams in a server.

By default, teams prevent friendly fire between team members, and allows players to see their invisible team members.

A screenshot from Minecraft. In-game, there is a line of 16 banners standing in a row. Each is a different color, and has text floating above it that states which color of team it represents. Each banner is on top of a Lodestone block.

Creating and Disbanding Factions

  1. Make a Banner.
  2. Give the Banner a custom name in an anvil. This will be the name of your Faction.
  3. Place a Lodestone.
  4. Whilst standing directly on top of the Lodestone, look down and place your Banner on top of it.

A nametag should appear above the Banner stating your Faction's name. Additionally, a chat message will state that you have founded a Faction.

To disband a Faction, simply destroy the Banner and/or the Lodestone beneath it. A chat message will announce that your Faction has disbanded.

Joining and Leaving Factions

In order to join a Faction, simply attune a compass to the Lodestone beneath the Faction Banner. A message will be sent in chat to announce that you have joined the Faction.

In order to leave a Faction, you must drop Shears on the Faction Banner. This will also send a message in chat.

Customizing your Faction

To change the color of your Faction (affecting player usernames in chat and in nametags, as well as the color of the Glowing effect), drop a piece of Dye on the Faction Banner. A message will be sent to your team notifying them of the change.

To change the player prefix for your Faction (which displays before usernames in chat and nametags), use an anvil to name a nametag your desired prefix. Then, drop the nametag on the Faction Banner. A message will be sent to your team notifying them of the change. Remember to include a space (or other delimiting character) after the prefix, or else there will be no separation between the prefix text and the username.
