Sorry, i just tested all that out. You don't need to modify the BattleArena.jar to add new commands. You probably only have to do this if you have a really old version that doesn't recognize your command: inside of YourCustomGameConfig.yml
If you really want a new arena feel for your players, then perform that method on ArenaParkour.jar and add an alias for the parkour command. Then when you're setting up arenas. use the Params: section to override anything from ArenaParkourConfig.yml
I tested all this out doing a custom King of the Hill game-mode. (Not sure exactly what you're wanting to do, but that was the closest thing I could think of... Eventho it would immediately end because the defenders were inside the victory location).
Anyways, your players will have a parkour alias for joining and it'll feel like a completely new game mode. But server side, everything will be saved inside /plugins/ArenaParkour/arenas.yml
Good luck.

cool idea man. Just use ArenaParkour to make your arena:
/pk create ArenaName
- pick a location and stand at 1 corner and do
//pos1- stand at 2nd corner and do
//pos2//expand 3 U//expand 1 D/pk avp ArenaName #
- avp stands for add victory point
- # = 1 - but you can have more than 1 victory location
Also, if you really want your own competition name and command, then i believe you would have to
- rename BattleArena.jar to BattleArena.zip
- unzip BattleArena.zip
- modify plugin.yml and add your command
- compress the folder contents back into BattleArena.zip
- check the ZIP that the folder structure is correct
- rename BattleArena.zip to BattleArena.jar
But I could be completely wrong. Also, by default Windows has file extensions hidden. So in order to use this method, you'd have to go into the Control Panel, Folder Options, View, and uncheck the box Hide extensions for known file types. Otherwise, you cannot rename files to change their extension. F2 = rename btw.
All of this would just enable your players to do /YourCustomArenaName join
I'm pretty sure you would still have to use the parkour commands to create and setup your arena: /pk create ArenaName
But to your users, joining and fighting to capture that objective would feel like a completely new arena type.
Good luck.

Posted May 21, 2014If my saved inventory's is set to 5, and a player plays 5 times in a row, this ends up replacing their inventory with one of the Arena Kits, This should be checked, before hand to not save game kits as inventorys, its a simple match that needs to happen. If (Player inv == predefined kits){Dont save in saved-inventory}

Posted May 18, 2014I made a new competition, and I want to know how I can get the victory condition to be the same of ArenaParkour. I want it so you win by getting to a certain location, and I saw that ArenaParkour had that victoryCondition, so I need to know how to get my new competition to have that way to win. If anyone knows how to do this, could you please tell me, because I have been looking for a while on how to do this and I can't find anywhere that does this.

Posted May 17, 2014Seriously, this plugin needs clean up.. At the moment, my configs are in two different formats.
onStart: Options: [<option>]
And
onStart: -<option> -<option>
Also, THE WIKI NEEDS UPDATING! I'm trying to make a new config, and I take a example from the wiki and format it to my needs, and it doesn't work. Fix it.

Tried both of these with no luck. At this point I'm thinking I should file a ticket. :(

not sure wich is your problem. (same config as the one generated) but you have nTeams: 1+
And you need to have nTeams: 2+ or it will not recognize the player i think (not sure but probably is this).
yea with spigot there could be some problems....
@ZeaLBG
the woolTeams in ffa doesn't affect the way the comands operate, an '/ffa auto' should work with or without this

Remove: defaults: options: [woolTeams] And test. If there are more than 16 players it will get buggy - 2 players with same wool heads.

Since I'm not sure which config you're specifically wanting to see, here's both!
http://pastebin.com/kxVh1wka
(FFAConfig) On this file, I have altered the team size to be: 1, 1+, and 2 with no luck.
http://pastebin.com/dncSjCdM
On this one, I tried doing the ready block with no luck as well.
Our server is running Spigot 1.7.5, if that makes a difference.
Thanks for even taking a peek! I didn't want to post up a clutter ticket if I merely configured something incorrectly. :)
