@ZwPBerserk

Smash bros might happen :)

@navbarry

So, that is kind of outside scope. There are so many different ways to alter items like that. Isnt there a good plugin that does that already? then you could just give the people the perms to use it while in the arena.

Otherwise something that I want to add is "GameLogic" jars where you can just download what GameLogic you want (like grenades) and add that in the config file to have games use it.

@rbonafied

That definitely shouldnt happen, pm me your ip and I'll hop on.

@Arizrain

you can always do the commands again.

/arena alter <arena name> 1
/arena alter <arena name> 2
/arena alter <arena name> 3
/arena alter <arena name> ...

Alkarinv, Is there a way to change the spawn locations, once set, in an arena?

A cool addition to batttlearena would be some type of grenade(excluding tnt) like if you throw a snowball or egg.

ok, thanks, I'll try. In future versions could it be possible to allow add event types without full server restart?

SwordFightingConfig.yml

Do a restart after that and it should work fine.

well, I copied "freeForAll.yml" to "SwordFighting.yml", put it into "competitions" folder and changed it so it contains that: http://pastebin.com/600C9yzC but there is no "SwordFighting" type registering. What I'm doing wrong?

Hi Alkarin,

Just letting ya know the MobKills victoryCondition is working great. Been running it for 3 days now and everything works exactly as expected.

One after-thought:

It'd be great if there was an option for onComplete which would clear all the Exp and item drops left by the dead mobs. If the arena is in heavy use for more than half an hour to an hour, there gets to be so many drops that the server lags out.

I've thought about the fact that these commands are issued by the server, not a player, so it'd be harder to tell the server where to run it's /remove, but it occurred to me you could tell it to use the first mob spawnpoint as its location, and then use a radius of however far away the player spawnpoint is (or the farthest mob spawnpoint or item spawnpoint, whichever is farthest from the location where the command is centered).

Apart from the overload of mob-drops it's everything I had hoped it to be, so thanks again for being so effective! :D

excellent!
good
Ugh, alright
pretty sure they work, which command are you trying to do? some of the really detailed/debugging ones are op only

The reason there are duplicates is I have aliases for the command, so a lot of those have the game type, and the game type command. Hasn't been a high priority to remove.

Hi,

First - The announcements appear to be working now. Thank you! (I recreated all the config files fresh)

Second - arena.leave worked

Third - When using battleground, after I left I got {teamlong1} drew {teamlong2}

Fourth - Admin permissions don't appear to be working for me. I have arena.admin .

@Arizrain

Right now just on the ground, you can do restocking chests by using the wgResetRegion command with worldguard regions (see the battleArena wiki)

Adding in specific chest support a bit later.

@Treeline1

I'm on irc most of the day.. you can hit me up for questions there.

@rbonafied

Really?? what version are you using?

@CoDApril

The Spawn is special in minecraft/bukkit, really not much I can do about it. I'd rather not write special code to handle that area. I know you can set the "spawn" radius in like the bukkit properties somewhere. It also affects block breaks and block places.

@navbarry

I'll hop on.. definitely should be working. Red and Blue names should be the first 2 players that join.

You need to give players just "arena.leave" the specific leave perms will come later.

I did do some work on the messages. But I lost what was wrong with yours, could you tell me again please? :)

@sbelljobseek

New classes definitely work, why don't you pastebin me your classes.yml

Wiki page http://battleplugins.com/w/index.php/BA_Classes

@stickerking

A lot of problems.. why don't you hit me up on irc. probably the best.

1) In the ArenaConfig.yml you want

nTeams: 2-8 teamSize: 1

so 2 through 8 teams, 1 player per team (aka solo)

2) brokenarena means I couldn't load that arena, sometimes it's because that world couldn't be loaded. I keep them around in case the world comes back later.

3) Taking off the time limit ArenaConfig.yml

matchTime: -1

@sbelljobseek:

A workaround for special items could be this plugin I just noticed:

http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/chestrestock/

You could have BattleArena issue the command to restock the chests whenever it starts a new match.

@alkarinv PvP is on for the entire world minus spawn, is there a special permission node they need? I am not sure what you meant by on.start.options
