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

Posted Aug 15, 2013I'll ask again since you probably missed it! :P
Is it possible to make people be able to join while the match is in progress? People don't like waiting 15 minutes to join a game and would like to join the action straight away :P

It really depends on what classes you give them. But they should be getting be getting the "gladiator" class by default unless you've changed it. Its also possible that you changed the class name?
@Flipperflies555
See my comment above, sounds like the same problem.

Go into the battlearena plugin folder that was generated when you start the server, open the file classes, and create classes there, based off of some example ones. :)
(Also, keep in mind, you will need to give people arena.class.use.(classname) in order for them to pick the class, so you'll need a permissions plugin.)

That problem is finally fixed and I don't need to pm, I just can't link versions that haven't been approved on the boards... but they are now approved!

I'm going to put out a patch for autoed games tomorrow.. think I have a handle on that.
@djay732
Hey so you need to give them a class or items. It should be giving them "gladiator" by default. Inside the ArenaCTF/CaptureTheFlagConfig.yml you should see this.
onPrestart: options: [pvpOff, deEnchant] giveClass: default: gladiatoryou can create new classes, or let them choose from signs.

I have the exact same problem that Dyre and Squirrle are having, instead of PM'ing people, maybe you should just tell the explanation on comments so you don't have to PM everyone that has the same problem.

Posted Aug 3, 2013When a player joins the CTF game, they don't get any items. Do I need to enable/disable something? Do I need to edit something somewhere in a file? I looked all over and couldn't see anything about it. Thank you!

"/ctf auto" that command does not exist /ctf help for help
"/ffa auto" could not find an arena mathcing the params.
but i dont have any ffa arenas setup i dont know if it is because the arena is always open, but just tested me and another player done "/ctf join" and it started a game
ok scrap this. i rolled back to the 1.5.2 ctf and nothing, so i rolled loaded up the 1.6.2 and after the restart it decided it wanted to work, excuse me while i go bash my head against the wall...

You should be able to... but if you can't remove giving them the compass from the config. That sometimes can mess up the switching
