ArenaCTF
A Capture the Flag plugin where you pick up the wool color representing the other team, shown by visual around the wool. Once you pick it up teams are alerted and you need to bring the flag back to your base while your flag is still there. You can make more than one ctf arena and players will cycle through the different maps.
Installing
- Put the ArenaCTF.jar in your plugins folder, along with BattleArena.jar
Making a ctf arena
- /ctf create <ctf arena name>
- /ctf addFlag <ctf arena name> 1 <- add the flag for team 1
- /ctf alter <ctf arena name> 2 <- setup a second spawn
- /ctf addFlag <ctf arena name> 2 <- add the flag for team 2
- /ctf alter <ctf arena name> waitroom 1 <- add a waitroom (you can take a waitroom out by changing the config)
Joining
- /ctf join
Permission Node
- Players will need the permission node arena.join.capturetheflag
- arena.leave , so they can type /ctf leave
How do I win ?
To capture the flag you need to bring the enemy flag back to your flag at it's home. If your flag is being held by the enemy you will need to kill them and return it back ( just walk over it ).

Requirements
This plugin is made to hook into BattleArena, so you also need to download it as well.
Help
- BattleArena : Wiki that has all the options available for both ArenaCTF and BattleArena
- Adding Signs : support for joining/leaving and status
- You can ask me questions in real time on irc when I'm on. You can usually find me in the rooms battleplugins, or bukkit in irc.esper.net. IRC through a browser
@Baalint04
You have to change the CaptureTheFlag config.

How can I add rewards?
@OrbitalSquadron
This plugin should work from 1.2.5 all the way to 1.7.4, including 1.7.2
@dzyleung
That is just bizarre. Flags always spawn exactly where I set them for me. What's your ip?
@alkarinv
yes, if i am standing on the point the flag must appear, the flag is about 3 blocks away.
@OrbitalSquadron
The one that says version 1.7.4 is comparable with 1.7.2 also. When you click on the version you will see a thing on the right side that says game versions. Those underneath will tell you which versions it is comparable on.
Can you make this plugin for 1.7.2 please :)
@dzyleung
Well you can change the flag location to be wherever you want, so I don't quite understand. Are you saying they aren't appearing where you set them?
can you amke it so that the flag will spawn at the point where you are standing while setting up arena because my flags are on a wrong location
@stealthkitteh6
What's your ip stealth, I know there is some error somewhere on loading but I can't fix if I don't know what's going on. Come catch me on irc and we can figure it out.
@tobster78
The plugin works great. If you have a particular issue let me know.
How about a plugin that works?
I've tried re-installing, and even removing some plugins I thought might be causing issues, but it's still not working..any suggestions?
Do I need to enable something in the config maybe? I'll try completely removing it and re installing.
@Geno2149
You were close Geno, a lot of the options are in the BattleArena wiki as they apply to all games.

That should get you the info you need!
How can I change the rewards the players get? I've been looking through the CTFconfig and could only think that maybe the get item code goes under "winner" or completed. Any thoughts? And if so, what should the code look like?
@stealthkitteh6
That is bizarre. There has to be some error or some explanation. Are you using McMyadmin? sometimes that will hide errors.
Ok I just installed the newest version of BattleArena, but I'm still getting the same problem. I did find an error on startup.
[15:47:27] [Server thread/ERROR]: Error occurred while enabling BattleArena v3.9.5.4 (Is it up to date?)
Yes, it is up to date. That was the only error on startup.

That should lead you through it!
how i add a waitingroom
@stealthkitteh6
Then there should be some sort of error at the loading screen. If you paste that I can get you more details. Potentially it's because bukkit hasn't put up my latest BattleArena, which they should approve very soon.
@fbafaro
use the enchants section of the config and give that to them when they join.
Ok I've put the BattleArena and ArenaCTF jars into my plugins folder, and restarted the server, but when I type and command that begins with /CTF (for example /CTF create) nothing happens at all. No error message. When I type other commands such as /arena, it says 'Problems loading plugins, please send errors on startup to alkarin_v,'
