War

War - Minecraft PVP Arenas (TDM, CTF & more!)
Version: v1.9
War lets you create warzones, arenas that host team deathmatch and capture-the-flag battles.
Features:
As a player, you get a fast-paced PVP experience in SMP.
- Join a battle by entering through the warzone lobby. There is one gate per team (team diamond, gold or iron): step in to join that team.
- Your inventory is saved when you join a battle, and restored when you exit.
- When you die inside a warzone, you get instantly teleported back to your spawn, and one life is taken from your team's life pool. When that pool runs out, the other teams score a point!
- Steal the enemy team flag to score for your team.
- Fight over monuments, control points that, when captured, restore health to your teammates.
- Return the cake home to score a point for your team and refill your life pool.
- Capture the bomb and run for your enemy's spawn to blow it up. Careful! If you get attacked at close range you'll blow up.
As a warzone maker, you have total control.
- Take advantage cool landscape features or existing player-build structures and incorporate them in new warzones.
- Tons of options: friendly-fire, auto-assign, turn off PVP outside warzones, define respawn loadouts specific to each zone, and more!
War lets you keep mayhem contained in the warzones.
- All the blocks in a zone are reset at the end of every battle.
- Players are prevented from entering or leaving a zone - except through the designated warzone lobby - by a magic glass wall.
- A warhub can be created to link all your zones together.

Not using dev build. Using 1.3.2 on the latest build. Not sure why this is in that case. Maybe it's to do with arena size because I have to say, my arena is quite big...

Posted Sep 4, 2012And to you guys who says "It doesn't work" probably it is because you use CB dev but if it's not, check the mc version 1.2.5. I have no idea why it works so good for me.

Posted Sep 1, 2012Hey,
I have been using your plugin for over a year now, and it's truly amazing. I love your idea and the updates that have made it what it is. Nevertheless, I have a complaint.
First of all, why don't you enable the Ticket system via bukkit-dev? It's simple to use, and won't make people spam your comments like I am forced to do.
Now to my real issue, since I can't post a ticket, I'll write it here. I am having difficulty saving creating/saving new Warzones. Whenever I create a new warzone and the zone resets, all torches and signs are deleted, and containers are empty. I assume this is because You have not updated War sufficiently with the release of Minecraft 1.3. I am using War build #87, and bukkit build #2340 (1.3.1 R2.0). Could you please fix this bug ASAP, since It's rather annoying to not be able to expand/improve my server with new Warzones.
Thank you in advance
P.S.: Is your plugin incompatible with any Chest-Locking plugins? I am currently using LWC and I could imagine if Chests conflict, but couldn't find any information on this. P.P.S.: Your forums (The War Room) don't work, and your irc is unoccupied most of the time, so this was the only way I could reach you

Posted Aug 27, 2012Hey,
what do I have to do to enable PVP in Arena? I use Multiverse. If i set PVP in Multiverse and server.properties to true it works fine.
But I don't want to enable PVP outside of the arena.
What do i have to do to enable PVP only in my arena?

Because if everyone knows how War works, and since we're using the Portals for players to get to Arenas, why not have an added method of having a Free-For-All (Which i'm kind of surprised that this wasn't already introduced) or a way for "Last Man Standing".
