Middle-Earth Additions: Factions

? Overview

Middle-Earth Additions: Factions is a powerful addon for the Middle-Earth mod that automatically tracks player faction affiliations and provides seamless integration with PlaceholderAPI-compatible mods. Perfect for servers wanting to display faction information in chat, prefixes, and other UI elements.

✨ Features

? Automatic Faction Tracking

• Real-time Detection: Automatically detects when players join factions in the Middle-Earth mod

• Persistent Storage: Stores faction data as JSON files in your world save directory

• Zero Configuration: Works out of the box with no additional setup required

? PlaceholderAPI Integration

• Universal Compatibility: Works with StyledChat, LuckPerms, and any mod supporting PlaceholderAPI

• Multiple Placeholders: Provides various placeholder formats for different use cases

• Optional Dependency: Functions independently but enhances with PlaceholderAPI present

? Title Menu (New)

• How to Open: Press the default keybinding O to open the Faction Title Menu while in-game. You can rebind this in Controls under category “Middle Earth Additions”.

• Faction Panel: A compact panel shows your current faction icon and five title nodes.

• Good/Evil Variants: The menu adapts to your disposition (good/evil), changing button icons and rank names (e.g., Soldier→Knight→Captain→Baron→Lord vs Warrior→Uruk→Chieftain→General→Overlord).

• Linear Progression: Unlocks must be earned in order. Attempting to preview or unlock a later node shows a prerequisite message.

• Requirements & Feedback: Tooltips display Silver Coin, Gold Coin, and EXP level requirements with color-coded status. Insufficient resources or missing prerequisites are shown via action bar messages.

• Faction Icon: The top-left faction button displays a faction-appropriate item (e.g., Gondorian Shield, Mordor Wooden Shield, etc.).

• Unlocked Perks List: Perks for unlocked ranks are listed in the panel (examples: 10% Speed Boost, +0.5 Arrow Damage, +1 Heart, Resistance aura).
