Posted Apr 15, 2013@alkarinv I would try to use this plugin as for hunger game arena, i just make a big area, where player will check their class by clicking sign in the waitroom (60 second), later they got teleported in the arena and got protection (warmup) for more 60 second. What kind of configuration you suggest for it? (i would try to use it as deathmatch) and also is possible to make the arena regenerate before any match? (maybe using other plugins?)
Thank you for attention Ale

I was sure I had a fix for the ArenaPaintball. Can you pm me your ip and lets work out a time I can see this... I want this issue to be gone.
The Queue of 0/0 is definitely a display glitch. I'll see if I can release something tomorrow or so.
@deleted_10961146
So the arena should be private to those 2 players. Unless you are teleporting them into some open field where everyone can enter. I don't handle damage from people not in the arena though, so they could still do damage to the duelers.
@shaneciora
I will do this :)
@LastTulare
Ugh, alright.. a couple of bugs there.
@macgarthur
There seems to be a plugin conflict, probably multiverse-inventories, checking that out tomorrow.

Posted Apr 14, 2013I am using the latest version of Battle Arena.
Every time I try and join ArenaSpleef or ArenaPaintball via /pb join or /spleef join it either says 'You Joined the Paintball Queue.Position 0/0'. I have 2 arenas available, all able to join with at least 1 player on each team.
Another bug is that sometimes I try to join a game and it says I am already in one and to type /arena leave but when I type that it says I'm not in an Arena.
Also, with the ArenaPaintball plugin the damage for snowballs is the default Minecraft damage, it doesn't even when I edit it in the config file and reload server.
Any help would be appreciated, it worked fine in the previous version of BattleArena.

Posted Apr 14, 2013So with dueling can all players be in one arena without being able to attack other players than the challenged player?

Posted Apr 13, 2013Players who lose arena seem to keep the arena gear a lot of the time when they leave. Is that an issue with this plugin or possibly another one?

Posted Apr 13, 2013Hey hey, I jumped back on and noticed the number of spawns in the config went back from 5 to 1 by itself :S It must of changed after I joined the BG for testing it. Instead of lasting 300 seconds it seemed like just 60 seconds too. Skeletotons didnt have bows but they are fast instead so I guess it depends on the user, (i like the fast skeles that swarm :D) in the config there is a 3rd number that Im not sure about:
'8':
time: 30 15 0
spawn: Zombie 1
loc: Arenas,75.5,69.0,-70.5,107.25551,13.630294
-edit- class signs arent working, in pre start, during the match or anything, I get no messages either when we punch them or right click. players do have the - arena.class.use.* perm. Seems like punching a block to flag ready for a match dont start the match either D:
the '0' after 30 and 15? assuming 30 is ST and 15 being RT
-edit- found out that the signs are just not saving to the signs in the saves folder, that is probably what the class signs not working issue is

Thanks :D
One more suggestion. On the signs you should add a line for players in the match already.
Ex:

Just used that cmd, and same result D: editing the config to what you want and /ba reload works fine tho in the meantime. And I was wondering how the color for leather armor was set but didnt plan to use it, but now that it makes since that way Ill likely implement that in a new game mode later on (: Gonna get some sleep, working all night and morning when less ppl are online to bug me haha good luck with the debug :D and thanks for looking into it

So the RGB values are strictly for leather colors right now, I wish it could also affect chat color and more armors, but minecraft doesn't allow that yet:(
Interesting. try doing
That might work. If not then I'll have to fix!
Glad it's a hit!

That part was made clear (: but figured that out, I was meant the config for the woolTeams but I may of figured out the part that was stooping me, the values for R G B. Im assuming it goes by the color around where the team spawns and if it happens to be red (255 0 0) then red team spawns in that corner, or so my theory goes :D so far that seems to have been the case, or its cus thats the spawn point order, I went Red, blue, green, yellow and so forth when selecting spawn points. Im just wanting more info on what the R G B values are used for in the teamconfig.yml
Just now, was adding spawn points for mobs and here is my command I typed in: /aa addspawn zombie 5 fs=30 rt=15 8 command goes thru perfectly but in the saved config it writes it as this: '8': time: 30 30 0 spawn: Zombie 1 loc: Arenas,75.5,69.0,-70.5,107.25551,13.630294 Which is no big deal since I can reload the config or if worse comes to worse I can restart the server after I get my numbers the way I want. Just thought Id shoot that one your way, so far that is the only issue Ive run into since after updating to the latest versions of BA, BT and ACTF :D Sir you are damn good at what you do! Ill have to throw some of the donations I get your way since its such a big hit on my server and all I was doing was testing it haha prizes werent even set up yet XD. Next up Ill be setting up a daily phase match (: since thats last on my todo for this plugin

Maybe I should take a look at the plugin before asking srry. But if you do /matchtype duel <p1> <p2> are they allowed to fight other players not included in the challenge?

I updated the wiki, check this out to see if its clearer

@xion87
I'll check out the other branch, might be an easy fix.
@hankanman
So I haven't made a "MobArena" type style of plugin yet (MobArena is very good though if you havent tried it. I will be making one, but not for a while. In the meantime you can also check out this
https://github.com/alkarinv/BattleArena/issues/90
Someone made a MobArena style extension for BattleArena
@ryan688668898587095688890
put in the option "armorTeams", you can replace "woolTeams" with that if you would like.
@deleted_10961146
Nope, its the option "armorTeams", (ofc only works with leather as thats the only thing minecraft allows colors on :( )
@deleted_10961146
BattleArena does 1v1, and dueling. So a bit confused, what do you mean?
