Bowbash
Bowbash Minigame
Mostly being played in stained glass arenas, you'll need to survive grenades/arrows of the enemies and build a fortress out of the glass you harvest or you just use the glass to build a bridge to the enemy and kill everyone.
This is a team game and doesn't work with one player. The ultimate goal is to get the score of the enemy to zero by killing them repeatedly.
Setup
You need to install MinigamesLib for the plugin to work.
Also, you'll need Vault for economy rewards to work.
- /bb setmainlobby set the main lobby where all join signs will be
- /bb setlobby [arena] set the waiting lobby
- /bb setspawn [arena] sets the player spawn, you need to execute this command twice for two different spawns!
- /bb setbounds [arena] low sets the lower left corner of the map
- /bb setbounds [arena] high sets the higher right corner of the map (so that you got a cuboid)
- /bb savearena [arena]
You can now set a join sign (optionally). Lines:
- Bowbash
- [arena]

Config
There are a few config files (config.yml, classes.yml, arenas.yml, messages.yml, stats.yml) which are mostly self explanatory. Be aware that guns.yml is not used in this minigame!
config: default_max_players: 4 # default amount of maximum players that are allowed to join an arena default_min_players: 2 # default amount of minimum players that can join an arena lobby_countdown: 30 # amount of time in seconds to countdown in lobby ingame_countdown: 10 # amount of time in seconds to countdown ingame before the final start rewards: economy: true economy_reward: 10 # You'll need Vault for economy to work item_reward: false item_reward_ids: 264*1;11*1 # 264 being the id, you can specify an amount (the '*1') and enchantments (e.g. 264#DAMAGE_ALL:2*64 would be sharpness 2 on a stack of diamonds) command_reward: false command: pex user <player> add SKILLZ.* global_arenas_size: 30 # not used in this minigame
You can also specify data on a item reward. If you would want 32 enchanted red wool blocks, you'd adjust the config to: 35:14#DAMAGE_ALL:1*32, where :14 is the data for red, 35 the id for wool, and the rest as explained above.
Kits/Classes
There are 3 classes with different bows and grenades.
As always, you can change settings like how much a class costs or if it is vip only or alter the power of the bows in classes.yml.

The current version on bukkitdev is only for MinigamesLib 1.3, the new version is still awaiting approval by the bukkit team, will take a few days. Same for Arcade, I'm also still waiting on the bukkit team here.

Posted Aug 28, 2014Hey mate, I cannot get this to load on my server, I have MinigamesLib and even a few plugins of yours, but for some reason, this one does not load. Any ideas on what should I do?
Thank you!

"Could not find arena file for BowBash", something wrong with your setup. If the countdown goes under 0 it always just means that you forgot something in the setup process.
Edit: Regarding classes not being recognized, just pastebin classes.yml and I can take a look if it's all correct. Also, use Bowbash v1.0.0 as in v1.0.1 the classes sometimes generate wrong.

Yes you can change that in the config, economy, item or command rewards.

You're running MinigamesLib 1.1, update to 1.3. Or did you change anything to classes.yml?

Paste console log on pastebin and link it here, and if you're using an old version of MGLib, update to 1.3 please (file in the mid at the CI).
