Posted May 20, 2013UPDATE
For people that are having "respawnWithClass" issues, I've just released a new version to fix. If you don't want to wait for bukkit to approve the new build, either subscribe on the upper right, or you can find me on irc and I can link you the dev version.

You can just specify the arena, but otherwise by default it will rotate through all avaiable arenas.
@marvzzz23
That is bizarre, can you pm me your ip please?
@Kazzillyown

Posted May 19, 2013Also Alk, How do I make a 2nd ffa arena without it cycling through each arena , like make the option to use both at the same time? /ffa join 1 /ffa join 2 ? Or not possible?
And When you add monsters spawn on the map, How often do they spawn? Does this work on monster spawns? fs=30 rs=50 1: Can you configure what they drop?
When I do /Tourney , and start it , the teams that win from the first round never go to the 2nd round and it never decalres a winner, while keeping people stuck in a que, unable to join events
Also, Battlearena is announcing deaths from arena deaths and counting them as pvp deaths

Posted May 18, 2013@alkarinv - Using a MultiCraft control panel to edit my config files, any configs more than 1 directory deep aren't getting added to the list? For example, all of the configs in my "competitions" directory were never displayed so that's why I never saw the option for changing item prizes and money.

pvp should be on during the game. look for "onStart.options: [pvpOn]"
@BloodyChucklz
http://battleplugins.com/w/index.php/BA_Game_Configs#Giving_items_for_winning.2Flosing
Should help you out :)
@rsod
really? ouch I'll get on that
@chopstick121
You can't disable all commands (yet), that is on the list of things to do. For now you need to manually add what you want to block
@angtom
You can add a module to let players in that arena jump higher. The special armor you can just give to them using the config.
@Kazzillyown
Really depends on what you want to do... Usually people want to edit the game config.yml's which are here. http://battleplugins.com/w/index.php/BA_Game_Configs
The wiki itself is a decent starting point too. http://battleplugins.com/w/index.php/BattleArena
But you might need to ask here, or grab me on IRC.
@tarahere81
Herm, I'll double check that, but if it's not announcing it shouldn't affect their scores (at least it should be taht way)
@betasam
It requires nothing :), though it hooks into a lot of plugins if you want... 15+.
@KittyTristy
We already figured this out on IRC :)

Posted May 18, 2013How do I properly connect this to BattleTracker? I don't see any way to configure any database settings within BattleArena, and it doesn't appear to write any statistics to the appropriate tables in the tracker database. New names pop up under the arena mode (the only one I'm using currently) but the stats stay completely at default.
