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

We just tried this and it was really cool. I have a couple of use questions...
When you have the other team's flag, do you need to cross over your spawn point to get the credit? Or do you have to touch your own spawn point to get the credit?
Should I place a block at the spawn point? Do the flag location and spawn locations need to be in different places?
alkarinn :)
i change TF2 for this plugin, is better :) you can use my sv to test pl jeje
cya :)
@doggant29
i wrote the config badly. I'll update the next jar with the updated default config.
Go into CaptureTheFlagConfig.yml inside of onComplete: add the option "clearInventory"
Until Bukkit releases 1.0.1
Please put in [respawn, clearInventory] inside of onDeath:
That will make sure players respawn when they die.
You will also want to move onStart
to underneath onSpawn:
@GumbyDammit
Woot! the almighty restart. Glad that's not an issue.
@tarahere81
Sure I'll come on.
when you get time alkarin can u come to our server and try to get capture the flag to work for us?
we tried everything =(
sad faces hehe
@.@
We are always getting 1 v 1 capture the flag no matter what we try Then when one person kills the other the game ends ... sooo we tried to put teamSize: 4+ in the config... didnt work if only 2 players que it ends up 1 v 1 =(
@alkarinv
A manual restart fixed it. No more errors. Thanks for your help.
@GumbyDammit
That's just craziness! ok... so it works with everything else, but not ctf. Maybe... I really don't know, does a reload/restart help?
@alkarinv
I knew you were going to ask that ;) I don't know which version of MySQL my host (Elite Hosting) uses, unfortunately. All my other BattleArena / BattleTracker plugins work fine.
@GumbyDammit
Strange, that works on mine. It's a BattleTracker error. What version of MySQL are you using?
I get this on startup:
@Scrayos
Excellent!
@kyledag500
You need to take the enemy flag back to yours. If your flag is being held by the enemy you will need to kill them, and return it back to your base (just killing them and picking up your flag will return it)
I don't know where to put the flag after it's been captured...
Tested by Scrayos! :P
Haven't found any Bug. It's workin' really nice atm. ;)
LOL nice <3 I was just bored and made a arena perfect for this not knowing you just added this plugin. I'll have to set it up tomorrow if I can.. server might be busy
It's been perfect for me, thanks again Alkarinv!
@themine12
It should be up and ready to download. Hopefully, *crosses fingers, there are no issues and it's perfect !!!
But the best thing to test it out is use it, and report any bugs you find so I can squash and kill them.
I can test this plugin out on my server. PM me if u want me to.
Let the fighting begin!
