Xeno Factions FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I create my first city?
Use the city creation command to name your group and claim your first chunk of land. You'll need enough prestige points to cover the initial claim cost, which you earn through activity like mining and building.
What is prestige and how do I earn it?
Prestige is the currency you use to claim land, expand your city, and pay upkeep costs. You earn prestige passively through normal gameplay activities like mining, building, and defeating mobs.
Can I change my city's flag or banner?
Yes, you can upload a custom flag or select from the mod's built-in banner designs through the city settings. This gives your faction a unique visual identity on the map and in-game.
How does the new player protection period work?
New players get a grace period where their base cannot be attacked and they cannot join wars. During this time, they also keep their inventory items if they die, giving them a safe window to establish themselves.
What happens when I declare war on another city?
Declaring war allows you to attack enemy territory and capture their chunks if you win. You can negotiate peace treaties, ceasefires, or surrender terms to end the conflict.
Can multiple cities fight together against one enemy?
Yes, you can form alliances with other factions so you can fight defensive wars together. Allied cities can coordinate attacks and share defensive responsibilities.
What is Team Deathmatch mode and do I need it?
Team Deathmatch is an optional game mode for servers that want organized PvP events separate from territory wars. It's not required—servers can use the mod purely for faction management and territorial conquest.
Can server admins control the economy and player behavior?
Yes, admins can view player inventories, mute disruptive players, and configure market settings. Admins also have tools to manage the prestige economy and adjust game balance.
Will this mod slow down my server?
The mod is designed to work without extra plugins, so it should have minimal performance impact. If you're concerned, test it on a copy of your world first, especially if you're running many other mods.
