Posted Nov 6, 2012Hi alkarinv, How do I give every player in a death match a reward just for playing the game even if they don't win ?
I am making a huge shoot out and want to reward players for playing the entire 15 minutes =)
Thanks!

If that is happening see if there is an error on startup. That command should always work so if it isn't something is going on during loading. Use pastie or pastebin.com to show me the errors once you see them!
I'm sure it's something easy to figure out.

So you left, then you lost your items... that sounds like either a config problem or a bug. So pastebin me your config, and do me a favor though and see if this version has the same issue.

If it's a bug I'll see if I can fix tomorrow.

ok thanks. Sorry for all the questions. This is such a large plugin, just trying to get comfortable with it all, love it so far.
I did figure out the inventory save with clearInventory under preReq - but I had an issue. What else do I have to set if someone does /ffa leave for example. When I was testing this and did /ffa leave I will teleport back to where I was, I would get my old inventory back but then it would clear and I lost my items.
basically what I want to know is when someone leaves or the game ends, how do you make it clear the Game items FIRST and then restore the original items I had before joining?

hmm.. I didn't make the sameWorld work with preReqs... but it should be there. I'll fix that. The clearInventory is a bad name when used in preReqs (i will be changing it), clearInventory in preReqs means. 1) storeAll their inventory, gamemode, experience 2) when they first enter the arena, clear their inventory once 1) is done.
What you want is the option noInventory. That will prevent them from joining with any items.

pastebin me your config. but you should be able to just delete the victoryCondition: line.
The ready up system is not working right now but I've started. I was busier than I thought over the weekend. So it probably will be a day or two before i have it done.
