So there is a fix for the DeathMatch display bug in the newer version 3.7.4.8+. So it's fixed whenever bukkit clears it. Or you can get it here now.

Posted Nov 25, 2012I am having a difficult using your plugin for a large variety of reasons. I have always been keeping track of this plugin but it still has the exact same reoccuring issues.
One of them is choosing the classes for the signs. They never seem to work since the first version. I want to make a video tutorial of your plugin but you really must speak to me to answer and try to fix most of these issues.
My skype is theundernetwork and my display name is USM666 I can do voice chat to speak to you directly about this.

I don't know what you mean by parsed. But any bukkit event can be listened for only during matches by using my @MatchEventHandler. Otherwise I have a bunch of events that I fire for different match stages and transitions.

I don't think it's possible to silence commands like that, however it would be cool if we could do this despite. (Arguably, it's up to others to write this as an addon for battlearena though. Which makes me ask, are events like player damage entity parsed when to @Match-Event's?)

It's possible, I'll see if I can make the option. What would be ideal? they log out, then they die? Or should their items go to the other player?
But I'm busy till tuesday, so it would be after then at the earliest.

Basically, I have a system where people bring in their own items. If they think they are outmatched, they will just logout before they even start the fight. I would like it so you die when you try to logout if it is possible.

Yeah, I changed it, too many people complained about inventory issues. People would get disconnected, come back, get killed, lose their items, be angry etc. I suppose I could bring it back as an option. What are you looking to do though?

Posted Nov 24, 2012I don't know if you removed this, but is it possible to just kill somebody for logging out during a skirmish? I know it used to just kill them.

It was just a message error when there was a tie between players. I uploaded a new version to Bukkit that should fix it.

Posted Nov 24, 2012@alkarinv,
Thanks! I was originally thinking it could be in the options list of the config file but perhaps it would be good to have a configuration flag that turns it on for players too if desired.

That is a great idea :) . So right now I have limited add and remove perms support for arenas, but I kind of stopped half way. But what you are saying is even a more advanced form of that, and probably easier to do actually since perms are kind of annoying to store and restore.
Would this be something the players could set for themselves? or would this be a list that was set in the options?

Posted Nov 23, 2012We primarily use Essentials and WorldEdit and Worldguard. Is there a way to pass arbitrary commands before the arena session starts? If it supports arbitrary commands then it could work with any plugin that exists now or will in the future. If a command isn't valid or the user doesn't have permission it could silently ignore it. - Just thinking out loud.
For example (made up just for fun):
Onjoin:

Godmode is another plugin (worldedit/worldguard usually, but others do it too). So basically no, b/c I don't know which plugin to disable Godmode in :(

Posted Nov 23, 2012I have hopefully a quick question. I have both god mode and creative before joining the spleef arena. When the battle starts, creative is removed (this is good). When I fall into the flames, I don't die (which is bad). Is there a way to turn off god mode while the game is running since creative turns off fine?
