Hi,
i try to merge my old advanced config to the new paths config. But it seems not work. In your wiki i cant find a Resolution. Maybe that you have a idea how to rewrite this:

`ranks:`
`    default:`
`        requirements:`
`            time:`
`                value: 1m`
`        results:`
`            rank change: default; Beginner`
`            command: 'kit Neuling &p; say &p ist jetzt ein neuer Mitspieler. :); pex user &p group set `Beginner; adjustbonusclaimblocks &p 400'`
`            message: 'Willkommen! :)'`
`    Beginner:`
`        requirements:`
`            time:`
`                value: 1d`
`        results:`
`            rank change: Beginner; Spieler`
`            message: 'Du bist aufgestiegen. Danke für deine Spielzeit.; pex user &p group set Spieler'`

...this is just a snipset. I try to make this:

`default:`
`  prerequisites:`
`    in group:`
`    value: default`
`  requirements:`
`    global time: 1m`
`  results:`
`    rank change: default; Beginner`
`    command: say &p ist jetzt ein neuer Mitspieler. :)`
`    command2: pex user &p group set Beginner`
`    message: Willkommen! :)`
`  options:`
`    display name: Auf dem weg zum Beginner`

And i got an error during reload:

It seems your Paths.yml is fine. Try avoid using the /ar reload command. It can be buggy.

Try restarting your server and see what happens.

nope

Prerequisite 'value' of path 'default' is unknown! Can you provide your complete Paths.yml file?

testet with 4.0.2

# Paths file - This file will contain all paths that a player is allowed to take. Previously known as 'AdvancedConfig.yml'.
# This file contains (by default) a Test group that shows the basic syntax of this file. 
# For more information, go to https://github.com/Armarr/Autorank-2/wiki/How-to-configure-the-Paths.yml-file%3F.

I temporarily removed the rank change as it was very buggy. You should try using a command result that sets the permission group of the player instead.

okay. as Workaround accept!
