Posted Dec 3, 2012I'm a little confused. I think I was in a match. Perhaps I died while in the match, was respawned to the same match and then /back worked.

It's because I don't track players that are not in a match. So if they have died there, the ctf ends, then they use /back, they will return. Right now you can make an arena have a region, where you can add in the option wgNoEnter. That will prevent players from entering into a region they should not be able to. But I really need to find some other way because /back is very annoying.

Posted Dec 3, 2012Hi, we're running 3.7.6.9.1 and notice that the /back command is working when using CTF even though we have it in the list of disabled commands.
From config.yml

I see it, that would definitely cause problems. It's fixed in 3.7.6.8+ which is released to bukkit, but is also here until they clear it.

1) I'll make a better way of getting the TeamIndex, but right now that is the way I'm doing it. (also if a team has left the index right now can be -1, something I will be fixing as well). I think what I will do is make a MatchTeam object inside the match that has the Team and data associated with the team, like head color, index, etc.
2) I just changed it, 3.7.6.9+ has the change. But you should now be able to listen for the MatchVictoryEvent and change it. But feel free to use setVictor(...) or endMatchWithResult(...) if you want to end the match.
3) Say you have 3 methods that listen for the command "join". By default you don't know which of these methods will run first, by specifying an order you can choose in which order they will be called.

I'm doing
int teamIndex = arena.getMatch().getTeamIndex(team);
ItemStack proto = TeamUtil.getTeamHead(teamIndex);
But, one team is blue and the other white :| Whereas the wool heads are supposed to be red and blue? :|
EDIT: It works using int teamIndex = arena.getMatch().getTeams().indexOf(team) - Is there a better way of doing this?
EDIT: I can't find a method that's called before the arena ends (Like onPreComplete() or something). I want just before the winner is announced so I can change who wins
EDIT: What does order=1 in the BAExecutor annotations do? :|

the class TeamUtil has a bunch of static methods for getting the information that is set in teamHeads.yml.
As for changing classes, I guess I will have to put an option in to allow them to skip the check.

How can I allow players to change classes "After changing items"? I have dropItemOff in the config onStart.
EDIT: Also, in your API, how would I fetch the block/material type a team would wear as their 'wool' head? Eg red wool, blue wool, sponge, leaves, etc? I want to make "Flags" signalling who owns a "tower" using the team colour! :)
Thanks

So I came on and looked. Looked like you and zombiefide won, it even says the dm had you guys as winners. So something happened in between you guys winning, and the teleport out. So there must have been an error somewhere, can you check the console? I bet it's there somewhere.

Posted Dec 2, 2012So now the tp thing is fixed. But for some reason deathmatches never end. It kicks everyone but one team. And never says the winner.

Posted Dec 1, 2012BattleArena downloaded from GitHub labeled 3.7.6.3 is actually showing up as 3.7.6.1 in console. It's also throwing an exception: Error occurred while enabling BattleArena v3.7.6.1 (Is it up to date?) I wish I could finally have Spleef working for a day or so xD

Should the announcements go to the people inside the queue, or to the server?
I haven't made the spectator section yet :( but I want to do this.
