Posted Jun 10, 2013How do I make so when people join, they go through all the different competitions. Like when the Arena is done, it will automatically start a new game, but this time maybe battleground and so on. Without having them to type /bg just to switch game type when the match is over.

okay i got that but in battlegrounds once you kill someone you can keep camping there spawn point can you set multiple spawns for 1 players spawn?
Also if people crash in the arena they lose there stuff anyway to stop this?

PvE deaths doesn't count as a kill for anyone (so it won't show up on the scoreboard), but it does count as a death.
@megasnipez_
BattleArena/competitions/ArenaConfig.yml. Change the onSpawn or onStart.giveClass.defaults to archer.
@thereallegend
I'm going to be making that an option, but not right now :(
@RMMontage
I like that! Not right now but that's easy (I think). I'll add that in the next release.

Posted Jun 9, 2013is it possible in team event see only team name and not single player's names on the scoreboard? Sometimes team color name become white during the match: for example if i'm on blue team, after a while red team's names become white.

Yes Justin, you can set the option "alwaysOpen" inside of the "defaults.options:". That will make it so that the game never ends once it starts. It's a bit experimental though so let me know if there are problems.
@tarahere81
Bah! alright, tourneys still broken.. will try and fix soon.
@modeltrainexpert
Thanks! :)
@megasnipez_
FreeForAll use a "JoinPhase" that needs to be started. you can switch them to a queue in the config. The command to start is below. You can also let the players start the timer by joining in the BattleArena/config.yml
@leo1232
Hmm.. it's a good idea, and one that I want to do. It's not super high priority right now though.. I need to handle some other things first.
@rsod
Yeah, that should be easy. Check out my ArenaCTF code or ArenaSpleef code, both of those have ways to end the game earlier.
@Compressionist
Well if you have BattleTracker it should disable those messages by default. Otherwise I don't handle messages from deaths at all.
@zeroseto
I have to go tonight unfortunately, but pm me your server ip. I'll need someplace to try and make this bug happen (I can't get it to work on my local server) so I can work out a real fix.

Ive done it with soup and potions its like the player gets eliminated it shows them eliminated on the side but because of the healing it bugs them so it doesn't teleport them out of the arena and give them there items back but honestly it seems like it only does it to people who are opped don't know why

Posted Jun 8, 2013Hello. I want to develop an extension for BattleArena. Competition based on DeathMatch - 2 teams, infinite lives, but I need help with one thing if it's possible:
Custom victory condition. I need custom function which will check if team won or lose (overwriting default condition). Game can be ended before time will be exceeded (if some predefined thing will happen), also If time exceeded and special condition still not called, function should check score and define either winner team or draw if it is
