Server Version: git-Paper-"8b47131da" (MC: 1.16.5)
Current Situation
When the faction-dynmap integration is enabled, the dynmap incorrectly shows that chunks are claimed when a player claims the border of their faction but doesn't fill it in. The actual claims are only evident on the faction map/board, meaning that new players who often claim while looking at the dynmap and don't realize their claim isn't filled in.
Proposed Changes
Either try to rework the code for the integration that deals with filling chunks, or add a new section to the code that be enabled with a config option. The new section could theoretically just pull directly from the faction board/map to show the same claims as seen there.
Reasons for Changes
Showing factions as filled in when they are not can cause a LOT of issues, headaches, confusion, and delay. A great example of this filling in occured on SMPEarth when Technoblade claimed a rectangle around all continents on their earth map. That resulted in a lot of drama on their server, and the issue affects nearly every other server that uses the plugin, too. On the server I play on, this issue resulted in someone seemingly claiming a massive portion of land with their city in the middle, only to have it destroyed because they had claimed their border and done /f claim fill, which reached the max claim amount. Because it showed as filled in on the dynmap, and they had done /f claim fill, they assumed it was filled in. After their city was destroyed they not only blamed the owner of the server for having a "shitty plugin" (quoted from them), but also stopped donating to the server via the owner's Patreon. After that, they quit the server.
Not having an option to disable the filling of claims resulted in the owner losing a good amount of income, and a month or so later the server was shut down. I play on a similar server now, and I'm really worried that the same may happen to it and other servers unless something is changed. So, please at least strongly consider adding this request.
