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

That is strange. There is probably some error when the server starts then. Could you check please?
@postman713
That should work, it works for me at least. Are they joining from signs or joining from the command line? Also by default it should be rotating through the arenas, if its not one of them might be bad. To check do this
If it displays nothing.. well then its good. Otherwise it will list out the reasons why its not being used.

What permissions plugin do you have? It really depends on that.
Here is the wiki on permissions. https://github.com/alkarinv/BattleArena/wiki/Permissions

Posted Mar 18, 2013UPDATE
If you have BattleArena version 3.8.0.7+, "/version BattleArena" to see, and messages are still not appearing, then delete your CaptureTheFlagMessages.yml and do a reload. It seems that the messages aren't being updated in some cases.

Use the above link to find me on irc. I'll try to help you figure out whats up. do /version BattleArena though, it should say 3.8.0.7. That is the BattleArena with the fix.

Posted Mar 18, 2013@SjorsMaster You need to add the permission node "arena.ctf.join" to your default permission group for all players to be able to join the matches. So, depending on your permission plugin, you just need to add that node and then your players can type "/ctf join" to join the matches.

Posted Mar 17, 2013I used the jar file you posted below, and the CTF messages are still not showing up during the CTF matches. Is there anything else I need to do?

This hasn't cleared bukkit yet, but this has a fix for the CTF messages.

not at all, it should definitely be announcing. Especially between players.
Maybe delete your ArenaCTF/config.yml and ArenaCTF/CaptureTheFlagMessages.yml
and do a reload?
EDIT:
Verified, the lack of messages is a bug.. It's inside of BattleArena and I'll have a release for it today that fixes.

Posted Mar 17, 2013Is it normal that CTF no longer announces that a point has been scored or that the flag was picked up anymore?

ugh, it deleted my post about this.
You need the newest BattleArena that I uploaded. It hasn't cleared bukkit yet so get it from the comments section.

You can do that already.
https://github.com/alkarinv/BattleArena/wiki/Scheduling-events
Add this line to the CaptureTheFlagConfig.yml ( or delete the config and it will load with the line from the new config)
CaptureTheFlag: joinType: JoinPhasethere are 2 join types, Queue and JoinPhase
If its a join phase you can schedule when its going to open.

Posted Mar 16, 2013Having a problem setting flags. I create the arena (ex: default) and when I try to set a flag it says ''Arena [name] is not a CTF arena!''. I've changed the name and it gives me the same message. Any suggestions?
