Posted Mar 31, 2013Hey there, I am using your Plugin BattleArena. I have created 2 normal Arenas, now when People are Joining they are cycling trough those arenas. Is there a way to just pick one arena? So for example I only like the "CastleArena" is there a way for to always only join the CastleArena?
Hope there is a way :P Kind Regards!

You speak english fine, but if you wanted you could write in spanish. That looks like a bug, I'll see if I can fix today.
@acrob4ticon
Woah, that just sounds bizarre. Pastebin me your BattleArena/competitions/ArenaConfig.yml. Hopefully I can see something there, or you can hit me up on irc and we can talk.

Posted Mar 30, 2013Ok, some oddness. I've just updated my server to 1.5.1 and updated battlearena to 3.8.3.
For some reason, the arena doesn't work correctly anymore. I've not touched any of the configs, although I have looked at them to make sure the settings were still as required.
When I do arena duel... I don't get teleported to the spawn point. Same goes for arena join too.
And I tried arena duel with a player, nothing happened, about 30 minutes later I got teleported to the spawn point, then immediately back to where I was prior to teleport and got given the reward I set.
With the revamping of configs, will it have overwritten any time delays? From what I can see, they're still all set as they should be.
I'm not sure what the issue is.

Posted Mar 29, 2013Hello, I would like to help me with a problem I have with the arenas . In my server I use two arenas, one for 1vs1 and other for 2vs2 . Well, the problem is that I can not set the amount that players are required to enter. When I put "/arena join", everything works fine,He ask two players to start. But when I put "/arena join 2", says: "You wanted to join with a team of two players. But this match type only supports up to 1 players per team. ". As I can set this?, I want that the players can to enter the arena 2vs2 (4 players) and the same time the other arena works in 1vs1. This is my "arenas.yml": http://pastebin.com/W4rxbAT3 Thank you, and sorry for my language, i speak spanish.

Players need the permission "arena.leave". Otherwise they won't be able to use that command.
I did a big clean up of the configs as of 3.8+. There should only be the following ymls in the folder.
All the "matches" or competitions are now separate in the competitions folder.
If you have something different than that I'm sorry. I tried to automatically update and clean up everything but it might not have done it.
Which 5 configs could be made the same? curious.
If you have bugs, let me know.. obviously constantly trying to fix everything I find.

Posted Mar 29, 2013Plugin seems really glitchy and counter intuitive. Why not clean up some of the mess of configs it generates and clean it up?
For example, players can't leave arenas. I'm not sure if this happens after the server's been on for a bit but, once you join an arena and try to leave it will just return the same command your typed. "/spleef leave"
There are like 5 configs that are made which are all the same.
Can't remember what else..

change "victoryType: LastManStanding" to "HighestKills"
also make sure you add the option "respawn" into onDeath
Arena: onDeath: options: [respawn]-
