As I'm sure many of you know, the next update will  contain a new feature known as "Spheres of Influence". These are basically a reqion in which you can gain alignment for (and against?) a faction. For example, the Shire's sphere of influence is most of the Shire, and a few surrounding regions, and Bree-land.

My suggestion is rather simple, make the feature something that can be turned on or off. This could be accomplished in three ways, as I see it.

One way would be to put this as an option in the config, and it would be activated as default

A second possibility would be to have a command in-game to toggle it. this command would be something along the lines of /gamerule spheresofinfluence true:false (depending on which you are setting it to)

Thirdly, it could just be an option in-game that could be activeted or deactivated by entering the pause menu.

I think that a /gamerule command would be best, as it would be the easiest way to change it quickly, and it would only apply to the world the command was done on.
