./<game> setOption nLives infinite ( but I'll fix the default config to have infinite lives for the future)
@littleboy8399
You would have to talk to lDucks about that one, not sure.
@mobilephone2003
We talked about this, but I'll follow back up to see if everything got resolved.
@Nixblox
That looks correct to me, probably needs a reload/restart. But if it still happens after that let me know and I'll find the cause.
@Carleslc
Hi Carl. I'll fix up the blocks, I think they stopped working at some point. As for the class switching, send me a private message with your classes.yml so I can test with them.
@iaXedu
I doubled checked and the perm is "arena.duel.<game>" and that seems to be working for me.
@frozenscream
WOOT! :)
@williamgravel2000
Minecraft servers sometimes get unsynced with items for some reason, there is a setting in the BattleArena/config.yml to set how often they can switch the classes which often helps. You can also try not giving them a default class, that sometimes seems to work.

Posted Jan 30, 2014I added 3 classes, Tank, Archer, and Mage. Tank has a diamond sword, Archer has an iron sword and Mage has a stone sword. But when my players select other classes in the game, the sword glitches and becomes a diamond sword, the other players see it, but not the player with the glitches sword, he only sees it after hitting someone. The default class is Tank, if wondering.

Posted Jan 28, 2014I have created a custom game called Guns and configured it to use prefix [Guns] in GunsConfig.yml, but when a match begins, it's still announced as [Arena]. Should I also create GunsMessages.yml and configure it to make new arena prefix work in announcements? Any help appreciated!

Posted Jan 26, 2014Hello. I'm having problems when starting a game with iron block. I need that the game starts when at least 2 players have clicked the iron block, but as I have it set does not work. I have set this: "enablePlayerReadyBlock: true readyBlockType: 42" All config.yml: http://pastebin.com/rmLwtprj
Another problem that I have is that players can't change classes as often that they want. When somebody try to change the class selected appear this message: "You can't switch classes after changing items!"
I hope your answers, Thanks!

I have around 8 leaderboards with 4 columns of updating signs (+ signs to join), could this be causing it?

Posted Jan 24, 2014Amazing plugin! Very useful, glad this is out there. Please keep updating it! Also, in a default TDM match, the first player to get a kill wins. Is there a way to set it for the first team to 5 or 10 kills wins, or whoever has the most kills after 10 minutes wins? (Either one would work) Thanks for the awesome plugin, keep up the great work!

Posted Jan 23, 2014Hi,
I'm having problems with the death match game mode. When players teleport in and out it infinitely teleports them, so they are stuck in place. Is there a fix for this?

Thank you. I was looking at the wiki but couldn't find it. I was probably not using the right searching words. XD
It is a really nice plugin, by the way.
