Posted Aug 14, 2013My Arenas are breaking after server restart.
I setup a 1v1 arena, test it- works perfect.
After server restart when you type /arena join it say's there is no arena of the right type.
The arena shows up under broken arenas

Create a custom arena that is a CTF style arena. Just make sure the name is short so it will fit on the sign. I remade the Battlefield arena so the name would just show "Battle." THe name of the Config file minus config will give you the name. So a CTFConfig.yml will display CTF on the top instead of CaptureTheFlag. Just set the same options and it will work the same.
@merlin4life
It looks like you need to set the 17th and 18th spawn points. how many people are in your arena? Granted I'm not the expert, just a glance over opinion.
@jazwire
have you set nLives? If you don't set it to something like 100, it will default to 1. I had the same problem.

Posted Aug 9, 2013Hey alkarinv!
I've been working on some Custom Arena types and I've run into some big problems when player try and select a class. On prestart, they teleport into a waitroom. In the waitroom there are 5 class signs everyone can choose from. Whenever anyone tries to choose a class this error is thrown.
Here is my ArcheryConfig.yml. I know it is just something I'm doing wrong, I just can't figure it out.
Version 3.9.3.4.2
Thanks for the help!

Crackshot is what I use in my CTF arenas. Use the node "Enchantment_To_Check" under "Item_Info" to give your item a specified indexing enchant. Once you put the "Item_Type" with the enchant specified, Crackshot will turn the enchanted item given in the kit into your weapon.

The factions plugin itself, inside the config. There is an option, inside of config.json, "warzoneFriendlyFire" I believe, which nullifies faction member protection in warzones to allow pvping between members.

Yeah, the warzone is the way to go.. but I'm disappointed as I try to set the damage... obviously factions is coming in after and cancelling.
@noobinator_boy
So you can have them teleport into the Waitroom.
@babak20101
They shouldnt lose anything in the battleground.. if you haven't changed the config then its probably because you have a plugin that is interferring.. if you send me a pm with your plugin list I can get an idea.
@moisesortiz
What do you mean crackshot?? you mean one hit weapons?
@babak20101
BattleArena takes care of the pvp.. as long as you have the server and world set to pvp=true
