Overview
Factions are player created organizations and groups in Space Engineers that players & npcs can be apart of. Factions can have multiple purposes, including Commerce, Industry, Military/Fighting, Piracy, or simply to group with your friends. Factions were implemented in Update 01.037.012.
Faction Information
To start your own faction, click Craate in the factions tab to start a new faction of your own. A window will pop up asking you for information. You are required to make a tag, and a name. If you make a mistake or want to make changes later, you can edit the information in the faction tab after it is created at any time.
If you wish to remove your newly created faction, make sure there are no other members, then simply click the leave button. If no members are present, the faction is automatically destroyed.
Tag
The player can place a tag to help others quickly identify which faction you are from. It can only contain three letters maximum. Usually abbreviations are used, but not required.
Name
The full name of the faction can be placed here, spacing is allowed.
Public Info
Any information you want others to see that are not members of your faction can be placed here. It can contain such things as requirements, your goals, etc.
Private Info
All text in this box will only be shown to members that are in your faction. Others cannot see it, even factions you are allied with. It is strictly for members only. Example of information that can be displayed is rules, tasks, resources needed, etc.
Member Management
Currently, management over the members of your faction are limited to adding, kicking, promoting, demoting, and accepting/declining new member requests.
Adding/Removing New Members
If someone wishes to join your faction, they must first request permission in the Factions tab under that factions name. Their request will be listed under the members box. You can choose to accept or decline them. You may also select the Accept Everyone check-box to auto-accept all requests.
You can also kick a member if they are causing trouble or you no longer wish for them to be in your faction. This will remove the member from the faction, and their permissions to use faction-shared blocks. You can also choose to leave on your own.
Ranks
Certain positions carry special privileges. Still as of Update 01.092, there is still limited functionality with rankings. The only function it presents is who takes over ownership of the entire faction (descending order) if the founder leaves/dies permanently. The list below shows available ranks:
- Founder
