Yep, check out BooCa79's answer. https://github.com/alkarinv/BattleArena/wiki/Worldguardregions
@BooCa79
So yeah, paste the config.yml but that honestly might be a bug. If they are already inside of the waitroom their enchants shouldn't be getting wiped unless you have the option "deEnchant" set in onStart (which I doubt you do). But paste the config, and if its a bug I can fix.

Posted Dec 16, 2012I'm having trouble with the enchants disappearing when I setup my FFA arena with a waitroom. For some reason all the enchants that the players get from the class signs disappear upon calling the "teleportIn" function. Then enchants go on fine in the wait room, but are removed onSpawn. I have tried a number of things, but with the same result. I was just wondering if there was something in the basic teleportIn function that was resetting the enchants and how I would stop it from taking them all away. Because as far as the default classes goes, the Monk is just cannon fodder without the buffs. I would appreciate any help I can get on this.

You add a region to the arena and use the wgResetRegion option on the start or complete stage options. You add the region with "/arena alter <arenaname> addregion" It's on the wiki in the "Adding Worldguard Regions" section.

the top one "announce, herochat=PVP" is the correct. The only thing is it won't create the channel for you (maybe it should). So you will need to create the channel PVP in herochat first. Once you do that it should work I bet :)

So there are 2 steps to setting up a waitroom. You did the first which sets the waitroom location.
The second step is going into the config and putting in "teleportWaitRoom" when you would like to teleport them there, usually onJoin or onPrestart. Afterwards move the "teleportIn" to when you would like to teleport the players into the arena spawns.

There is Blade. reposted from ArenaSpleef comments.
So yes, kind of. So there are 2 ways to do this.
1) Set "matchEnableForceStart: true" inside of BattleArena/config.yml. With this you can set nTeams: 8, but after like 3 minutes it will start the spleef match regardless if enough people have joined.. so this would be like 2-8. The amount of time can be set in the BattleArena/config.yml
2) make the spleef match like. nTeams: 3+. With this if 3 players join it will start a spleef match, but if while they are playing 7 people join the queue, the next match will have 7 people
@predawnia
@Lukethenuke
So right now with factions what you should do is make a "Warzone" and configure it so that faction loss is off during the warzone. Factions doesn't support any way to stop faction loss but I've talked to the developers and they have agreed to let me make some changes so that Factions can do this... so Factions support soon!

Yes but its actually a setting in Factions that you need to change. Open conf.json and look for these settings: "warZonePowerLoss": false, "warZoneFriendlyFire": true, Set them like this because the next step is to type /f autoclaim warzone and fly above your arena until its all warzone. This will allow friendlyfire and no power loss to any faction members when they die.
Cheers.

Posted Dec 15, 2012Is Factions supported? So that people from the same faction/ally can play/fight against each other?

So on that pastebin you just sent, the enchants are indented wrong. In a yaml file that will prevent it from being read correctly. That could lead to some issues with things loading correctly.
I'm going to hop on.
