open up BattleTracker/config.yml. Look for the 2 lines.
and change them to false. If you don't want custom messages either, turn on showBukkit messages and turn off the sendPVP messages. Those are at the top of the config.

Posted Nov 8, 2012So about this color signs problems: Bcoz I updated server from 1.3.2 to 1.4.2 and at the same time i updated your plugin to newest ver I though its maybe not the fault of 1.4.2 but some recent change in battlearena. So I was checking older versions of ur plugins and with BattleArena_v3.7.0.5 colors r displaying correctly. In next released version ( BattleArena_v3.7.1 ) You added feature: "TagAPI is now supported for team colored names" and since from this ver my colors r broken i think thats may be the reason?

On the victory condition, what about redstone power? Like, when a point is powered, team 1 wins, or when a different point is powered, team 2 wins? Something like that :)
Seeing as there are a lot of cool maps out there designed to be totally vanilla... But lack anything battle arena can do. And they're all based on redstone

good deal!
@xSlickZz
You can give potion effects to players. but there is no way to change their attack skills. There are plenty of plugins that allow you to do that. Also if you know any code this would be a super simple plugin to make with BattleArena, I could lead you through how to make it. Then it could be a new type!
You can change win conditions... but right now there are only 2. LastManStanding, and HighestKills... I want to keep adding them. Like item/block captures, mob kills, etc.

Nvm, i managed it. But anyways, is it possible to change the Win Conditions?
Also is there a "Enchant" for player, if the player attack, it poison the target? Basicly same as the Cave Spider. Would be a neat Enchant tho.

yes, its completely ignoring all colors that r in "prettyname". But i noticed when looking on old signs which i didnt touch after update (these didnt chage, just new r broken) and on every sign right before the classname, there is small 'x' (or its a star... idk how to call it) in orange color, and after that, there is specified class with correct color . So I think this color of star is overriding colors specifed for classes or somth:p

So the "prettyName" had some color code that is not "&6" and it's still being labeled orange? I'll check it out, but it sounds odd.
