ArenaCTF

A Capture the Flag plugin where you pick up the wool color representing the other team, shown by visual around the wool. Once you pick it up teams are alerted and you need to bring the flag back to your base while your flag is still there. You can make more than one ctf arena and players will cycle through the different maps.
Installing
- Put the ArenaCTF.jar in your plugins folder, along with BattleArena.jar
Making a ctf arena
- /ctf create <ctf arena name>
- /ctf addFlag <ctf arena name> 1 <- add the flag for team 1
- /ctf alter <ctf arena name> 2 <- setup a second spawn
- /ctf addFlag <ctf arena name> 2 <- add the flag for team 2
- /ctf alter <ctf arena name> waitroom 1 <- add a waitroom (you can take a waitroom out by changing the config)
Joining
- /ctf join
Permission Node
- Players will need the permission node arena.join.capturetheflag
- arena.leave , so they can type /ctf leave
How do I win ?
To capture the flag you need to bring the enemy flag back to your flag at it's home. If your flag is being held by the enemy you will need to kill them and return it back ( just walk over it ).

Images

Requirements
This plugin is made to hook into BattleArena, so you also need to download it as well.
Help
- BattleArena : Wiki that has all the options available for both ArenaCTF and BattleArena
- Adding Signs : support for joining/leaving and status
- You can ask me questions in real time on irc when I'm on. You can usually find me in the rooms battleplugins, or bukkit in irc.esper.net. IRC through a browser

The flaming effects are definitely happening, but you might have your client set to ignore visual effects, check that.
I like the multiple flag locations :) That shouldn't be too hard to put in, but there are a lot of other things I'm trying to get done first.
@alfahadgm
Can you check the configs? make sure they look ok, or just pastebin them where I can see them/ private message me. I'm guessing I add a type that has a messed up config.
@Al3XKOoL
I'm trying to make the /ctf auto, vs a queue an option. add the line
CaptureTheFlag: queue: falseWhich will make it back to a join phase

Posted Jan 30, 2013I don’t get those fancy flaming visual effect in the photos.
Is there a game option to disable the need to return your own flag.
Lastly, an option for setting up multiple flag locations.
The flag would then randomly use these locations after a capture.

So you can make multiple maps... it will automatically rotate through them :)

Posted Jan 28, 2013It would be cool if this had a map rotate or something so that people don't get bored of the same map :)

@mobilephone2003
Hey Mobile, so I have a new version that will be coming out tomorrow, I'll send you a link when its out.
I'll make it say something about needing to have the enemy flag captured as well.

Posted Jan 25, 2013Hey alk,
Started using this now. Seems those of us who capture the flag lose our wool heads, and there is some confusion on being able to capture the flag if the enemy team has your own, there doesn't seem to be any feedback when the flag is not able to be returned

Interesting, why don't you give me your ip so I can help you out.
If you have version 3.7.9.4+ of BattleArena, you should have matchEnableForceStart: true, and probably nTeams: 2, teamSize: 2-6, or something. That would mean... only allow 2 teams to fight, but allow fights between teams that have 2 through 6 players.

Posted Jan 22, 2013Hey, when I set isEvent to false, it either auto-starts when 2 players join it, or never starts when I change the config to 6+ or something. It says: Match will start when 12 players join, or if 2 or more are in que, it will start in 2 Minutes. The problem is.. it never starts in 2 minutes. Any help?

Just go into the config.yml and change isEvent: false, after that it will be automatic!
@thereallegend
I have a fix I'll put up tonight and give you links for until it clears bukkit.
