Posted Mar 15, 2013I set up a few arenas one specifically for duels only but when I do /skirmish duel <player> we end up at the col arena.
It worked at first now it teleports us there.
I am using the latest version :/
I need skirmish to be in one specific arena and bg/col etc all use 1 other arena.

Uranium, I would suggest redownloading the newest ArenaCTF, and the most recent BattleArena. You will need to have this line in your CaptureTheFlagConfig.yml
Things should work after that!
@Adderhead
There were a lot of extraneous/bad configs. You need to change everything in the config.yml. this will change in the most recent version I just uploaded After that update, you can change things in the appropriate config inside of
BattleArena/competitions/
@geor196
Hey George, come catch me on IRC so I can know when I can hop on and work that out!

You MUST do this for every change of that kind;
You'll see the config file AND the battleground config. Change in in both even though i think the only one that works is the config

Posted Mar 12, 2013Great plug-in. It's quite a hype on my server and it's my very first time using it. A few problems I am having though is when I try to set the battleground duration. It's default at 60 seconds but I tried to change it to 600 or 10 Minutes. The yml saves the change but the duration remains at it's default setting. Am I overlooking something maybe? Also, when the timer expires and the round ends I notice that sometimes the players aren't removed from the arena and they are able to stick around and interfere in other rounds. I believe it may be our plug-in ''Combat Tag'' causing the conflict but I'm not so sure. Can you give me a heads up on what steps to take to fix this? Thanks in advance. I really enjoy this plug-in.

Posted Mar 11, 2013CTF has stopped working since Spleef was installed, The main bug is that players do the /ctf join, they enter arena and on the 6 seconds pre-lobby it says ' Ctf Teams: Blue Red White' Not in that format exactly, but a white teams appears and when the pre-lobby timer end players won't be teleported to game even though they where on waitroom with woolheads.
My ip is below, players loved CTF, you may join and check the big.
Thanks :D

@coleweinman1

Thanks for clarification on colored armor. As for fatigue, sorry- I am still not seeing how to implement it to a class... I have this in the class file under the class that it is for, under enchants:
- dig:1:900 # decrease dig speed
Is this correct? "Dig" was the only one on the list that I thought might be it...

Colored armor is already in, as is fatigue.

Check out armor teams.
@RockFallGames
This should have been the error that I fixed with the most recent version. What does the version say when you do /version BattleArena?
@TesCZ
I really have no idea how you got that. Its like you managed to add a bad match type by a bad config. Could you paste your config.yml for me ?? I would like to see what happened there.
