Posted Oct 6, 2013Hi Alkarinv,
I am working on setting up an event scheduler to schedule a bunch of different arenas. For some reason the options for the arena are not loading correctly.
Here is how we have things setup: 1) DeathMatch is the game type, and we have an arena "heavenVsHell" that uses the type DeathMatch. Inside the heavenVsHell arena, we have varioius options specified such as what gear ... etc.
2) Next we try to schedule this event using /bas add DeathMatch arena=heavenVsHell . This adds the arena to the scheduler and when we start it loads our waiting area and everything.
The issue is the waiting time expires and the match begins, it turns out that it did not load the arena options, but instead is using the default. So no gear is loaded.
I will keep an eye on the irc to see if we can chat regarding this and I'll keep my eye out here for any info.
Thanks for the all the help you have been giving my server. One of my admins is making a write-up of how to get things started, so if you'd like when he is done we can share info and possible help make the wiki better.

Posted Oct 5, 2013Im having a problem with the class picking with signs... each time I join a game I choose my class by right clicking the signs but if I want to change classes after that it tells me "you cant switch classes after...(something like that) do you need me to find the exact phrase for you or you understand my point? thanks.

I checked, and I can't get it to happen. Im guessing it's a plugin conflict, would you mind trying just BattleArena on a clean server and see if it happens?
@jazwire
Check this out, just need to specify that option. But, I think most people want this, so I'll consider making this option standard when the number of lives is greater than 1.

@watarimon
Ugh, alright. Thanks for the report, I'll see if I can fix that up.
@Hezitation
Well.. there really isn't an option for that standard. You might be able to do it by putting the signs near the team bases, or maybe with the doCommands option.
If you use signs to join a specifc arena then I do show you how many people are in inside.
@rnoa
Sorry Rnoa, I'll see if I can get some fixes out for those soon.

Posted Oct 4, 2013I am also getting this error on console with the latest version and the latest Craftbukkit dev build: http://pastebin.com/DxCK3mZL Some other issues as well: 1. Deathmatch, once autoed, can be run repeatedly, players joining it even though AllowPlayerCreation of Events is false in the config.yml. 2. Events don't get cancelled when not enough players join. 3. Victory announcement to the server when it comes to events doesn't work.
:(

Posted Oct 2, 2013Hi, Great Plugin 10/10 I just have a few things too ask you.
Lets say I have Blue Team and Red Team. Is it possible to make it so that Blue Team can only pick from archer and monk classes, and Red Team can only pick 2 custom classes. I know you can have it so only one team can play as only one class and the other team only another class, but can you do each team can pick between 2 classes that the other team isnt? Also an idea should be joining room's with signs would be great. Like in a survival game plugin 0/24 players are in and when a play joins it would be 1/24. Also in Last Team standing is there a spectate mode, if not that would also be great too add =) just ideas.
