Posted Jul 11, 2013Looks amazing!
One question, is there any way to change the trajectory of entities? Such as making a pig fly forward from a spawn egg?
And is there a way to change items? Such as the pig spawning from a clock?
I think both of these of these things are possible in vanilla bukkit, though I'm a little new to java(you can tell by my plugin list[which is 0]), so I don't know a lot of things you can do in Bukkit. If you could do these things, you could make a LOAD of different things...

FFA is one of the two 'Join Phase' matches where you or an admin would have to start an event for players to join. Its not a free to join like a queue match.

The newest BattleArena that should be approved soon has sign display support (only for signs that choose the arena). I'll continue to increase the display as well.
@MojatoGames
Yes that is definitely possible, what do you mean by "game" though? just one match or the entire time they are on the server?
@FuSe18
Hey Fuse, I'll track you down on Skype.
@MojatoGames
I fixed a bug and rereleased a version, hopefully fixes that.
@TheElm
Not sure what you mean by disabling classes? You can already not give them classes, and they need permissions to use class signs, so what do you need to disable?
@merlin4life
Really? any errors?

Okay, thanks, I will probably be on tomorrow.
I was wondering if it was possible to add economy support for classes. What I want to do is for the players to buy the class during the game and to keep that class for the rest of the game (I could do that by setting onDeath: options to [keepInventory, respawn]) Do you think that's possible?
EDIT: Also maybe an outside shop that when players buy stuff from that they have the items every game.

Working classes.

@MojatoGames
You probably have the config correct, maybe a plugin conflict? this honestly sounds a bit weird to me, hop onto IRC if you have a chance so we can talk and figure it out. :)

Posted Jul 9, 2013Hi, I have a problem. Players aren't dying after being killed: their health fills back up after being killed. And they aren't ghosting cause they can hit others. If I recall correctly, in my config the options for onDeath are [clearInventory, respawn]. Those are in the options though; should I move them to the colon after onDeath instead? When the player dies for the first time, their inventory does get cleared but they don't die for a while.
Also, this is a wonderful plugin and will make any server awesome. Alkarinv, you sir, are awesome.

Hey Merlin, so it looks like the option is called itemPickupOff, I must have told you the wrong one. Sorry about that.
What do you mean don't work for you? I'd like to get all bugs worked out!

By default all the game types in BattleArena keep their inventory... the only one that doesn't is Skirmish. What you should do is either use any of the other game types, or do

Posted Jul 8, 2013So, on my server I have an area with diferent selectable PVP rooms on it, protected with world guard for further customization (mobs not spawning etc...). I also added InventoryDropChance plugin, which has it's own flags so that players can come in with their own armors and not lose anything...
But recently I have encountered many bugs when configuring these rooms so that players don't lose Items when in PVP, and I had to close them, as they where not secure.
This plugin seems interesting, as I could add a whole new variety of rooms... but is it posible to configure a Skirmish arena, so that players do not lose anything inside it? This is the main reason why players cry about my pvp rooms.
