IMPORTANT NOTE:
Existing plugin users who are upgrading to this version will likely need to grant default permissions for recruits, like so:
f config factionPermDefaults door recruit
f config factionPermDefaults button recruit
f config factionPermDefaults lever recruit
f config factionPermDefaults build recruit
The recruit role's goal is to enable factions to invite new members without being afraid of getting griefed instantly.
Adds a configuration option "factionRankDefault" for default rank of newly joined faction members. By default this is RECRUIT, but it can be set to any supported rank.
Adds the /f promote and /f demote commands, which leaders and officers can use to increase or decrease the rank of a faction member by one level, up to officer, or down to recruit.
This version of the recruit feature preserves the /f officer command for backward compatibility.
Doing so will remove the possiblility for dynamic command alias assignment but makes factions compatible with all other
plugins doing stuff like blocking commands from being used (AntiGuest, NoCheatPlus, War etc) and plugins that log command
useage (Hawkeye etc).
Some further info display to go with this feature is yet to come, and further testing for possible bugs is also needed.
Related info:
New FPerm "ACCESS" which is granted to faction leaders and officers by default. This FPerm allows you to bypass access restrictions throughout your faction territory, and (along with the "factions.access" Bukkit permission below) allows you to change access settings for any chunk owned by your faction.
New permissions:
factions.access - Ability to grant territory access for your faction, if you have the proper "ACCESS" FPerm (defaults to leaders and officers only). Added to factions.kit.halfplayer permission kit.
factions.access.any - Ability to grant territory access for any faction on the server. Added to factions.kit.mod permission kit.
factions.access.view - Ability to view territory access info for your own faction. Added to factions.kit.halfplayer permission kit.
New command:
/f access [view|p|f|player|faction=view] [name=you] - view or change the access information for the chunk you are in. If "view" or nothing is specified, it will simply display the info. If "p" or "player" is specified, a player will be granted access, or removed from the list if they were already granted access. If "f" or "faction" is specified, the same will be done for the specified faction. The name defaults to yourself or your faction if not specified. If your own faction is specified, you will toggle restricted access for the chunk so that normal faction members can be denied access, unless they are in the access list.
Examples:
/f access - view access list, if in your own territory
/f access p SomePlayer - grant access to player "SomePlayer" for the current chunk, or remove them from the access list if already there
/f access f - toggle restricted access for the current chunk (since faction name isn't specified, uses your own faction), assuming you're in your own factions territory
Note that the player cannot currently already be in another faction; if they are, you'll need to /f kick them first. Also note that if the faction isn't open (with no invitation required), the player isn't invited, and you don't have the factions.join.any permission or have admin bypass mode on, the attempt will also fail.
Also, added new log method which accepts arguments (like the msg method).
