Question about permission

I was wondering if i applied abandonedbases.exclude to a player or group, that would fully exclude them from Abandoned bases, and allow the plugin Raid Protection to take over?

heya, abandonedbases.exclude works as a way to ignore players from being scanned. if it excludes all players from a base then it may become abandoned since they were simply excluded from the scan.

you should give them a permission that has no purge enabled. you can do this by setting it to "0" or "none"

so in my example you would add abandonedbases.none and give it to those players

Thanks for the info, But my Plan is to utilize the XPerience addon to control "Rank" groups, And i want to set it up so that, once a player reaches a specific rank, they are then excluded from Abandoned bases, since you can't charge for extended protection with abandoned bases, and does not allow raiding at all while protected or online. So once a player reaches a specific rank, then they would be assigned to that group which would have the exclude permission. 

My hope is, Raid Protection will then take over, making players have to pay for further protections, with lessened protection as they rank up.

np, you would need to assign the abandonedbases.none permission to that group for that to work

I get a Permission doesn't exist when trying to use abandonedbases.none, are you sure thats the correct one, or should i be using exclude?

Oh never mind i missed your image from above.

Actually i do have a question regarding the none setup. Does this take priority over another groups permission if they that group has say, a 7 day protection? or does it depend on the ranking of the group?

hi, it takes priority over everything

Awesome, thanks again!

Ok last question on permissions, How do other groups, aside from the "none" group, act? For example, if Default group is 2 days, but VIP group is 7, Which will take priority over the other? If default group is rank 1 and VIP is rank 2, does that make the VIP groups time take priority?

yep it will take priority if it has a higher number even if they have both groups

Ok so just so i understand, The higher number of days is what takes the priority, unless they have none, which basically removes them from abandoned base system?

ya that's how it works
