To make it infinite people i think is making it 1+ teams. /a alter {arena} nteams 1+
Yes its possible to do all that after this update where waitrooms are improved just wait then, but i think there is a feature where players begin by right clicking an iron block just like in MobArena check that on config and enable it it should work just like MobArena, plus use VaishNoPacket or with essentials /vanish to be invisibl.
@timsavage
Alkarin is really busy by the plugins he has right now, use the API to make it your own or ask lDucks, he might help. Ask on IRC too, there are some coders that might be interest

Posted Apr 25, 2013I was recently reviewing the documentation, and it has really improved! Kudos to lDucks and rasnyderiii. However, I was dismayed to read that only one waitroom per arena will be allowed. I hope this is merely a mistake in the docs, and not a planned "feature". I currently rely on per team waitrooms in my ctf arena, and this functionality would be sorely missed if it is removed. If this is a planned for a future release, I beg you to reconsider.
Thanks in advance for clarification. And thanks for all the work you've put into this plugin! It's vastly improved and had many useful features added just in the short time I've been using it. I really appreciate the consistency of configuration and usage that is provided across all arena games handled by this group of tools.
I agree with FarmerKaine regarding the use of BattleArena for a hunger games arena. I too found the Survival Games developers to be quite unresponsive, in stark contrast to alkarinv. I finally gave up waiting, and turned to the Hunger Games Map Generator plugin by skaterzero807. Unfortunately, he has stopped updating it, and I had to download and modify the source myself to fix a couple issues. I really love the random map generation feature of his plugin, but the gameplay portion is not as polished as it could be, and I still haven't completely eliminated the 'invisible-after-teleport' bug in my custom version. But the random map generator is so incredibly good, I've stuck with it despite the other issues.

Posted Apr 25, 2013I use BattleArena on my servers.
It works perfectly... I have 2 CTF arenas and 2 FFA arenas alternating.
I also run a Hunger Games server. Dedicated 24/7.
With just a few more features, this would be an OUTSTANDING Hunger games plugin. WE NEED A "SURVIVAL-GAMES-LIKE" Information Wall.
I could argue that Survival games needs join/spawn/death/leave events like BattleArena... but that plugin is ridiculously slow to develop, and the dev is semi-helpful at most. This one is current... I really would like a few Hunger Games options though (Auto-Load Chests with specified (random) items, Infowall, etc.)

Posted Apr 25, 2013I want to be able to have like a mob arena. The players will spawn in to a wait-room and choose a class. Then i start it. The players wait while i spawn mobs. Once i think the round is finished, i type a command and then they go back to the waitroom and their class is reset. I then start round 2 doing exactly the same thing. I keep doing round until everyone dies. Once the second last person dies, i will tp the winner to a room to pick rewards for himself. Is this possible in anyway or am i being too adventurous?

Posted Apr 25, 2013I'm sorry that I keep asking for help but in almost finished some arenas on my server. I just wanted to know how I can make it that unlimited people can join and then when I start it they all spawn on 1 point. I also want to know how I can be part of the arena but cannot be seen by others so I can make sure that everyone is playing fairly? If this is not possible then I will make a sign out of reach by the other players that admins can fly up to. I just want it that I do not count as a player so that I do not need to be killed for a player to win.
Cheers

Posted Apr 25, 2013Hum.. is it possible to make signs, so let's say: A 1v1 arena. One player right click the sign and it says sonmething like: You joined! Wait for an opponent! And if it comes another one and click the same sign, it will say: (player) vs (player) and then they will get tp'ed. And when they are fighiting, the arena is locked so noone else can join. I know this is possible somehow, because I saw a server with this. Please reply! - Doodle

Its the BattleArena checking that people aren't teleporting into protected arena regions. That's when that message gets displayed. It won't display if you have this perm
"arena.teleport.bypass"
It doesn't discriminate based on what type of teleport it is... but that would be easy I suppose.. You should check it out.

Its a config option. BattleArena/config.yml . allowUnsafeEnchantments: true
@xion87
lol, not fire eh? alright I'll fix that as well.
@Treeline1 yep, se the team size as a range
@netherfoam
Yeah, I just noticed those. Obviously there is a Name limit of 32 on the bukkit scoreboards... I'll release something tonight that fixes.
@EdwardOfLinster
Do this.. delete all those arenas
then remake them just using the normal command
Then in the DeathmatchConfig.yml alter the nTeams and teamSize to what you want. That I feel is a bit more secure, and I could help you out with that.
@roggbart
??? I'm a bit confused. The only time I override damage is when the players are IN the arena fighting and IF you specify pvpOn. If you don't want BattleArena to change damage at all, well take off the pvpOn (which is in the game configs).

Posted Apr 24, 2013I tried to make a safe-zone using worldguard, apparently battlearena overrides this. Why do this plugin have this feature when it use worldguard anyway? Seems pointless to me. I'm out of ideas for how to make safe-zone using this plugin.
Help? :)

Posted Apr 24, 2013@Treeline1:
Yes, in the main /BattleArena/config.yml file you set this:
enablePlayerReadyBlock: true
readyBlockType: 42
Then you put a block of 42 (ie, a block of iron) near the join sign. Players click the join sign, then they click the Ready Block.
As soon as the minimum number of players needed to start the game have clicked the ready block, the game will start.
eg, if you have a game with 2-8 players then when the first player clicks the ready block it will say "You ready yourself" and when the 2nd player clicks the ready block it will immediately begin the game.
