Posted Aug 27, 2013@Shaitan1805 Have you tried using "tamedwolf" instead of wolf? Not sure how exactly to do this, but it should be possible?
@farkinklown I'm guessing <name> would refer to the mobname. I.E. chicken, cat, ocelot etc.

then spawns a wolf, which doesn´t follow and fight for the class.
PS: srry for my bad english >.<

Posted Aug 26, 2013I have a suggestion could you make it so that depending on what class you are when you when changes the reward? I am making it so it adds permission to use next class if you win as level one version of it and I would really like if this were to be added for this

Posted Aug 25, 2013Hi, awesome plugin! but found a bug that I'm trying to fix. I've got an air-pvp arena where I give players temporary fly permission and a fireball-shooting sword to duke it out in the air. What I found was that the loser will keep fly after they die, but the winner will have it removed as I have set it. How do I make it so the loser will also have it removed? I give them fly by doing: doCommands: - console fly player on in the classes.yml file, but remove with: doCommands: - console fly player off in the ArenaConfig.yml file in the onLeave, onComplete, and onDeath subcategories. Still leaves the loser with fly. Any suggestions on what to change to fix this? The class is given by default by the way. Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. My event announcements setup hasn't changed since I began using BattleArena. I am having this issue through the last 3-4 updates, but it has worked without problems before. Discovered today that tourney announcements work but tourney never starts... Not sure posting the config helps....

That's because the BattleArena plugin actually teleports the player to the arena. Because it's in another world (I assume), the playerdata for that player is stored in Minecrafts files and onJoin, the player is forced to the place where he or she left off, which is the arena. There isn't really a way to fix this, but users often risk loosing their inventory if they do this on purpose :r

Posted Aug 23, 2013@Ajaxan & MinecraftPvPS Yes, there is an issue with class signs not working, you would have to use the commands to give out classes to players. I have notified Alk about this and sent him an error report. I'm sure it will be fixed soon. Oh, you can also disable the back command in the main cfg file (To whomever asked that question).

Posted Aug 21, 2013Hi everyone! I use Battle Arena a lot and I'll try and answer some of your questions, but don't take my word as law!
<<reply 1724284>>
You'll need to post some more info about your Event announcement set up. My Announcements work fine. (Except for a certain problem where players are using multiple arenas at once. Is this the problem you are experiencing?) Also, BattleArena and factions will run fine together. I in fact run them on my server at the same time. Never had a single problem. There is no integration between the two though.
@agligorijevic1998
Yes, I have gotten this issue before. When it happens my players have learned to just do /spawn or something to get out of the arena. Dealing with suddenly logging out players is tough though so don't try and demand it be fixed as I'm sure alk has been aware of it for awhile.
@agligorijevic1998
In the arena configuration add nLives: {amount} This stuff is in the Wiki! Read it!
@agligorijevic1998
Not sure if there is. I don't give players access to that command because it causes problems like that. you may want to try removing /back from the players permissions. If you don't like my answer feel free to ask the big guy himself. He will give you a for sure answer.
@agligorijevic1998
You'll need to give more info than that. I use many class signs and they all work 100%. some basic stuff to look at would be what are you typing in? The name on the sign must be the name of the class not the display name. Also, they only work in an arena. If you give more info I guarantee you'll get a better answer.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, my turn :P
I'm having trouble getting Broadcast messages to work right when players are doing multiple arenas at once. To be more specific, players in one arena will die and be kicked out and then join another arena. They join the next arena before the other one has finished. When this happens, The first arena joined stops displaying update messages with the arena time and current winner. I'll post any config need but wasn't sure what would help!
Keep up the good work man!
