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

So I'm currently fixing some issues with joining mid match, that was pretty new functionality. So next version of BattleArena, 3.8.5+ should have fixes for that. In the meantime you might want to take that out.
so onSpawn, you should either give them a default class with leather, or let them "respawnWithClass". If you have either of those I'll check to make sure that the leather they get on respawning gives them colored.
@SDDJ
Definitely! should be coming soon.

Posted Apr 6, 2013I'm having an issue where I have armorTeams set in the ctf config, yet players lose their armor color when they respawn. Also, any player that joins mid-match gets stuck in the waiting room. Is there any way to fix either of these problems?

That is already done by default if you have TagAPI. Great little plugin.

Yeah you need to delete CaptureTheFlagConfig.yml & config.yml for it to work.

Posted Apr 3, 2013ArenaCTF v1.2.1 seems to work exactly as expected. I've only run a couple test matches but no problems so far.
For what it's worth, v1.2.0 also works just fine with Bukkit 1.5.1-R0.1 unless you want to use quartz or a Redstone Block in your config... Even then I imagine you could just use the block ID's.
I'll be trying ArenaCTF v1.2.1 with today's new Bukkit update, 1.5.1-R0.2 but I suspect it should be smooth-sailing.

Have you updated to the most recent version? this was a problem a couple of versions back with the config file.
Try
Pretty sure that will fix your problem completely.

Posted Apr 1, 2013We have several CTF Arena's setup and they all act like General PVP arena's, it doesnt count flag captures and the winner is always the person who killed the other person the most

do you have version 1.2.0+? I was looking through the errors and error line isnt right. But from what I can tell it looks like one of the teams is missing?? I'm guessing that it goes away for the next game or with the newer version.
If you have the newest version then tell me if any of the teams left or something.. sorry about that.

You need to use the command
The arena command doesn't know addFlag, just the ctf command.

So You can choose whether its a Queue where the ctf will start when enough people join... or you can make it a JoinPhase, where you have to specify to open it.
so to use /ctf open, you need the JoinPhase. Put this into your CaptureTheFlagConfig.yml

Posted Mar 30, 2013When I try to do /ctf open, it says that the command does not exist. If so, how do I start a CTF event so people can join? Thanks.
