If the _Objective Control_ is installed, they can also claim the rewards for your faction ### Territory Claims Factions are rewarded claim points in a configurable interval, which can be used to claim territory. When a member of a Faction A is killed by a member of another (not allied) faction B, B receives war points against A. If the amount of war points B has against A is equal or higher to the cost of a chunk, A will lose (war\_points/cost\_per\_chunk) chunks in the current dimension, and B receives an amount of claim points equal to the cost of the chunks. * Personal chunks: players can claim personal chunks, which they own forever and can't be conquered through PvP. * Admin Chunks: admins can claim chunks, which in turn can't be conquered or claimed by players. ### Chunk Resetting Unclaimed chunks can be optionally reset by admins to clean up the world. Running the command will not have an effect until the server is restarted. ## Commands ## Faction Commands * `/faction create `: Create a new faction. * `/faction invite `: Invite a player to your faction. * `/faction join `: Accept an invitation to join a faction. * `/faction leave`: Leave your current faction.
