Not too sure what it means.
Edit: And after the end of a paintball game, players can't do /pb join as they're 'still in an arena game and should do /arena leave' or something to that effect, until they relog even if the game actually finished.

do you have "arena.admin" perms? You need either that or to be OP.
If you have those it should be.
/arena create <arena name>
example
/arena create tallsterArena

Thanks for your reply, I have more information.
I completely deleted the battlearena folder and restarted before installing 1.3.7 and That seemed to bring the /bas functionality back.
It seems in my config, allowPlayerCreation is set to false, but its happening anyway. Every time it does happen, the area setting seem to be changing to teamSize=1 and nTeams=2+.
Meaning... for me to get the scheduler back running I have to do /epb cancel, and /epb reload to return the arena setting to a state matching the scheduled event.
I've tried to compensate for the problem by setting the time between events to 1 second, but that's still 1 second the plugin can be broken if a player uses a command.
Don't apologize! I'm very impressed with your development. The speed of updates and feedback is fantastic! Any help I can give you is the least I can do! lol Bugs happen, and I may just have settings wrong.
I will try the new version when I get home from work tonight! Thanks again!

Well first here is a version that has a couple of fixes. I just released it on bukkit but here it is on github if you want to try it out before. https://github.com/downloads/alkarinv/BattleArena/BattleArena.jar
1) The scheduler should work. If it doesn't work in the version above let me know and I'll work it out with you.
2) There should be a new options called allowPlayerCreation:, if it's set to false then having them join shouldn't do anything. If it messing up.. it's a bug.. I'll have to fix. I made a new multiple event handler that I obviously didn't test thoroughly enough.
3) really sorry, same thing. i'll pm you my skype details so we can work out the bugs.

onDeath happens when the player dies, what you want is to put the cookie either in the onSpawn section(if you want them to get a cookie every time they spawn), or the losers: section (if you want to give only the losers a cookie- happens at the end of the match), or the winner: section.
Example:
skirmish: losers: options: [giveItems] items: - cookie: 1-

Posted Nov 4, 2012This Plugin Is almost perfect for my needs (in theory) along with paintball arena, but I'm having a few strange and unpredictable bugs.
1 in the latest version (3.7.1) the event scheduler doesn't work for me, all bas commands simply return a message "/bas" on the chat window, and nothing more. Thus I'm having to run on the next older version.
2 I want my paintball match to run as events but the events that I schedule seem to be overridden when a player types /epb join before the event has started. It appears that a new event starts with the default BattleArena match settings. I don't want this, I Only want the players to be able to join my scheduled events. (Honestly the event system seems a little unnecessary to me, I would like to see the event functionality rolled into the config of the regular match) All I really want is for the matches to have 2 teams and 1+ players. (also possibly cap that number)
3 Once a player has joined one of the (fake) events I mentioned above, It doesn't seem to be possible to leave. The message "you are already in a match" appears when trying to re- enter a game. I feel like this problem is happening because the plugin and paintball extension are both attempting to create matches. Causing some sort of corrupted match to remain active, yet not show up under the event lists.
Sometimes it works perfectly and then almost randomly it all goes down hill. I'd be glad to give more detail as I really like the idea of this plugin.

Posted Nov 3, 2012Hello,
I'm try to make players instantly teleport to wait rooms when they enter a skirmish queue. Is this possible? If not, would you mind adding this feature?
Thanks, qwerty
