I also had something like this, but it happened when I tried updating bukkit (Bukkit broke everything -_-") and I had to kill the server a few times. I'm expecting it was killing the server or something to do with the new NMS changes that caused the wipe :)

Pastebin me your config.yml. But I know this is kind of strange, but for matches which arena will be used isn't known until enough people enter the queue. So onJoin happen (for matches) at the beginning. Try putting the teleportWaitRoom in onPrestart:
The adventure mode should work, I've tried it several times. Best to get me the pastebin so I can check it out, also do "/arena reload" to make sure the setting have been reset.
@Stuntweed
That's really bad. I'm assuming no errors on console? So error happens, arenas stop working, and badness?

There seems to be something wrong with the arenas.yml. Often our arenas stop working and the result of that is that the locations in arenas.yml have been reset for unknown reason.
Running DB #2529 and BattleArena 3.7.7.5

Posted Dec 13, 2012Hey, I want that when a player type the command "/arena join", that BattleArena teleport him to the waitroom (I already created a waitroom). So I wrote in the config "onJoin: options: [teleportWaitroom]", but it doesn't function. Then I tried "onJoin: options: [teleportTo=...]", doesn't function too. At last I tried a completely different command: " onStart: options: [gameMode=Adventure]", nothing happens...
Did I something wrong or is it a bug in the plugin?
(I use BattleArena 3.7.7.5 and Bukkit #2488.)

oooh, I like this, added in a dev build you can try out now.
https://github.com/downloads/alkarinv/BattleArena/BattleArena.jar
pick the section you would like to modify their game mode.. probably where you teleport them in, like onStart.
onStart: options: [gameMode=Adventure]you can also specify "blockBreakOff", but obviously Adventure does that anyway.
@FIRESTORMER1
Excellent! and thanks!

Nevermind, i just downloaded the newest version and it works all fine now. I think it didnt work because the "onEnter" and "onLeave" wasnt there before, well it works now. Great plugin :D!

If your BG arenas are in a different World (Mine Are) I got around the faction problem by adding that world to the Factions config files worldsIgnorePvP section as follows:
"worldsIgnorePvP": [ "cod" ],

CTF is already done, though I consider it beta and there might be issues.
http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/arenactf/
MonsterArena probably not (though you can spawn items and monsters already SpawnMobs and items). MobArena does monster arenas so well it kind of seems pointless to step into.

pastebin me your BattleArena/config.yml, I'll check it out. Are you using /arena?
Also, check for any errors on the console and post them in a pastebin if you find any.

Posted Dec 11, 2012Hey im having a issue.
For some reason when a player joins the arena, he will enter with the items he has, and when he gets out of the arena the items are gone. I just want it to store the items before the match, and then give him a class in the match, and when he is done he will get his items back. Please could anyone help me with this?

Factions is trying to act last on events... even when they probably shouldn't. Try this version.
https://github.com/downloads/alkarinv/BattleArena/BattleArena.jar
That should fix, but tell me if it doesn't. Also be sure to make the arena a warzone, haven't built a workaround for that yet.

Posted Dec 9, 2012Would there be a way to disable factions? I have a problem with people in the same faction and on different teams that cant kill one another so the match becomes a draw...
If there is a way i must be blind or something lol i didnt see it/cant find it.
Thanks, mike
