Hey, how can I use classes and wool teams? Like, people die, respawn, get their wool team and choose their class, which wipes their wool from their head :S

Posted Oct 12, 2012I am using: BattleArena_v3.6.9.1 . It seems to be random the teleport bug. But it never happens in the Arena . It happens in FreeForAll..
Also it only happened when I made a waiting room for ffa.
Also alot of the times , when there is 1 person left in FFA , it doesn't announce a winner..
Ever...
Not sure if people are disconnecting or if people are using /back or something to leave and it doesnt know theres a winner? I have disabled /spawn , /home, sethome, etc

Let me see your config, maybe something is going on or didnt get loaded correctly. But pvp should definitely be on during the match.
Maybe there are errors in the console?

Yep, read with Kahlilnc said. I also updated it in the permissions page as it should be there!

Lol when downloading the plugin read Known caveats. Says:
Warning I introduced permissions for using class signs which you will need to add for players to use.
arena.class.use.<class name> Example:
arena.class.use.* arena.class.use.gladiator

Ok well I have removed all plugins and I still am not getting pvp in the arena. It feels like I am missing a step or something. I am currently testing it on a test server and the only way to have pvp is by having pvp on any thoughts?

What version of BattleArena are you using? What you are describing is a teleport invisibility bukkit( or vanilla minecraft) bug that is well documented, just do a search for bukkit teleport invisible and you will get tons of results. I tried to make a workaround for the issue though in a recent version of BattleArena (which works for everyone I've asked).

Posted Oct 12, 2012When people join ffa to fight, half the time they cannot see each other ? Or one can see the other but the other player cannot see his opponent.. What is wrong?

Not a bad idea, sounds fun. I don't suppose you can make plugins? It would be a fairly simple one to make but I need to fix a lot of things before I would have time to make it myself.

So BOSEconomy has an error in their function currencyNameSingular() that throws this error whenever it's called. I have a workaround for this bug because someone else had this same issue. I put the fix into BattleArena_v3.6.9.1, which is release just not yet approved by bukkit.
I've heard if you subscribe you can download it immediately.

It will be configurable, I need to put that in. I'll add that to my enhancements list, and it's easy to do so next version.

"potions" already have a duration, go into the classes.yml. the format is <effect>:<strength>:<duration in seconds> Example:
enchants: - speed:1:900 <- lasts for 900 seconds - resistance:1:30 <- lasts for 30 secondsFor the clases thing... hmm.. I suppose I could do that but it would probably be low priority. I'll put it on the enhancements list though!
