Posted Feb 13, 2013Okay, so I tried making the plugin completely automated using WorldGuard. I used WorldGuard Custom Flags and added the World Guard Region Command. I have a set region to run the command /arena join it allows the players to join the queque but when they get teleported it doesnt teleport them to the arena it just randomly choses who wins and teleports them back. Uh can I ask why is that? Is it something with worldguard not allowing them to teleport?

Posted Feb 13, 2013So I got this working on our server, but when it comes to duels, players can challenge each other, but cannot challenge ops. How can I allow this?
EDIT: nevermind. I got it. Had to add -arena.duel.exempt to OP group.

Fine by me, it's not like I was offering to give away my time and effort for nothing to a rival server because I'm nice like that.
As for cracked, we were founded by a group of people and most of those didn't have Minecraft. Since then, we've remained cracked because more people have joined who haven't bought Minecraft yet, even if the old founders are slowly buying the game. So yes, we support Minecraft, and because of our server, a lot of people have bought it. But it is despicable to force players out of the server who can't buy the game.
Oh and better uninstall QuickShop too then! Cheers.
/End of rant
I'll have the documentation probably tomorrow with a link guys :)

Actually, just logged into your "cracked" server, not sure why you would really choose to do that.
So not interested in running your plugin.

I've made a similar one, its like king of the kill/domination where you click a particular block, and the surrounding wool slowly turns to your teams colour. Once it is your color, the "Tower" is claimed. They claim over time.
The game is won by either capturing all towers, or having the most towers captured at the end of the game.
So the difference is, the number of players standing around your tower/control point doesn't alter the speed it captures at. You still have to defend the towers though. I can do a download link if this is what you're looking for.

Posted Feb 12, 2013@alkarinv "<unknownloner> also... about the skirmish thing, might be good to ask the dev if he can set parties back to their original state after leaving a skrimish"
Looks like we need this done if possible

Something like that, yeah. That or a fill in the area with team color wool. I kinda like though the players in the area capture the point. Then the more players, the faster it is captured.

Actually, this would be quite cool, like Domination, in COD.
So like 3 areas on a map, 10x10 block radius, or something, say 2+ teams, first team to capture all 3 areas wins.
Player enters area and stays alive for 30 seconds and captures that area, if player is killed and no other player from that team still in area, it becomes available to capture, etc etc.
My players would love that.

Oops, yeah thats a bug... a very confusing bug.
I was putting that in because I want to move in that direction.. but it wasn't supposed to be in a release version yet.
@skookiesprite
Lol! thats a lot of stuff, all good ideas but I'm not sure if I can get them all done. The best you can do right now is specify a number of lives each person can have... I'd also like to put in a "restart" option so that when a player dies you can both restart at the spawns.
@netherfoam
I'll talk to you directly... very bad :(

What permission plugin do you use, if any? But adding the node "arena.arena.join" should allow them to join.
@iJordyM
What errors? pastebin them for me so I can fix if they are battlearena errors.
@FuSe18
You have the item typed in wrong
@geor196
The inventory system is very solid, usually inventory issues are you have the config setup or there is a plugin conflict. I need to make a page for these conflicts so let me know whats up with yours.
@navbarry
Yes Navbarry, the newest allows you to add the line.
@Ptruta
When are you usually on ?

Alright, as an update I was out of town for the weekend and just came back this morning. Will be catching up on requests (again). But be patient!
The best way to get direct help is to catch me on IRC, which you can do through your browser. http://www.esper.net/publicirc.php
Go to channel battleplugins. I'm usually on during US hours.

Posted Feb 11, 2013I get a lot of errors in my console .. Is there someone who has the same problem? The only plugins I put in were 'BattleArena' and 'BattleTracker' I would be pleased if someone knows what the problem is because, this plugin looks pretty awesome.
