Help
You can ask me questions in real time on irc when I'm on. You can usually find me in the room #battleplugins or #battledev in irc.esper.net. IRC through a browser.
I'm using Spigot 1.7.9 build 1527 and have yet to see any issues. I must say, once you take the time to figure out all the ins-and-outs of this plugin, it is simply amazing. Total control on my mini-games now. I'm slowly getting rid of other plugins to just use this one. Congrats to the team of Authors/Devs for an awesome plugin.
i use spigot and all working fine up to 1.7.9.. with 1.7.10 some player lost inventrory (maybe cause of multinv?) and some games get frozen. and player are stuck on queue.
@Sojiro787
I test it out in the latest spigot 1.7.9 version, which was build number #1543 with the ctf plugin and it works for battlearena 3.9.7.8 {/which is the version I use/} The only thing that leave me concerned is that it took a anormal amount of time when using the /ctf join. command. That could be a spigot related plugin or memory usage so maybe your server just can't run the games with a lot of people. (not with the games plugin, the related games that need this plugin) I just tried the ctf game, If you have problems with other type games let me know.
The config and the way is read is essential, maybe your server crashes due to your config.
Other plugins may interfere with this one, there should be a log though, but one never knows
I don't use spigot so just wait for an response.
@Sojiro787
can you pleas give me the spigot project number build?
@Sojiro787
there're some spigot issues, the plugin run smooth in bukkit but in spigot it doesn't, i'm sorry, maybe the autor will create a new version for all tipes of servers. I'll try it today and will see if it can be fix.
@creptor
There is really not much info to give lol.
I use 1.7.9 (the latest 1.7.9 spigot version)
I created a custom game based on Skirmish.
Whenever i try to join my custom game, the server will time out and kick everyone. After the first time out, you will be able to join the game, but, it wont function properly. A lot of players can't get out of the events, they crash constantly when the event is about to start, etc.
This is a nice plugin, but it just has a lot of bugs, at least on my server.
There are really no errors in my console, and i have gone over the config a few times. A few server owners that i know have opt out from using this plugin due to the same reasons.
I haven't tested on 1.7.8 though.
@Wolfie_Waffle
I actually don't know that, just guess that you should have teams of 2+ people
@TehRenderr
preReqs: options: [noInventory]
should do the trick :3
@rwsender
you can't actually limit the max amount of inventories saved from the games you just limit the n* per player, so maybe high values don't do the trick. If that is not the problem, I believe I'm wrong, just go and post a ticket as bug.
@Sojiro787
you actually don't give enough info. :C but if you're using a 1.7.10 version of minecraft that could be the issue
@Xitwid
You're not thinking with portals. The mods do not register the kills so the plugin doesn't work with many of them, but you have to think. If you can't score kills, the you score the deaths! give a n* of lives and go on!
Killing others with the guns in Flan mod, the score can't be increased, how to fix it?
Custom games are completely broken.
You cannot create a GameConfig.yml and use it, it will crash the server (at least with a server of 80-120 people).
Pre-loaded games like, FFA, Skirmish, etc, work perfectly.
If you have a chance to fix the custom games, that would be awesome.
Btw, no errors in console when trying to play custom game, the moment you do /CustomGame Join, you time out and everyone crashes.
Using this alongside Spleef arena, sometimes it does not save/take away a players inventory, and they loose their items, I set the amount of inventories saved to 15, should this be higher(this happens when theirs like 3 people in the game)
@creptor
How would I make it so they need a empty inventory to do /arena join.
Could I make it so when a an opponent disconnects or leaves it does not trigger a win so you can't farm rewards?
@TehRenderr
you have to select a region and save it! use the wand to select the positions and after you have done that use: /arena alter <arenaName> addregion
After that use: /arena alter <arenaName> onFinish wgClearRegion
to add the thing you want, this will clear and only clear (not regenerate the region) the items on the ground.
@BostonBruins3721
there are pre-made colored amours. you just have to add in the config.yml ->
defaults: options: - armorTeams
How would I make it so after they die the items on the ground de-spawn. When the next duel starts the items are still in the ground and they can pick it up?
Thank-You for the help creptor! One more question: how do you set dyed armour in the classes.yml? For example a green leather chest plate.
@StillSwingin
I don't know what you're planning, but you can do it easily by setting slowness effect.
Same page than before....
@PixelPartyTV
I read there something with the football arena. Maybe that plugin is not updated for the new versions. Disable it.
@BostonBruins3721
Yea. You could add them trough commands. They can be added to the classes.yml but the players wont be able to swhitch classes. http:wiki.battleplugins.com/w/index.php/BA_Classes#Example
I have been making custom classes and I was wondering if it is possible to have a custom potion as one of the items for the class. For example: a potion with speed boost power 4 and jump boost power 4 all in one. I know that you need to use a command to get a potion with 2 effects in the game. So is it possible to use a custom potion like the one above as an item in a class and if it is how would you do it using the classes.yml.
Battle Arena is spamming the console with errors and causing lag to some plugins that use battle arena. Can you fix it. Or provide a solution? Console: http://pastie.org/private/9cxkowaszf3lnatitotqg
thanks! And is it possible to freeze players before the game starts? I mean, they are teleported to their spawns, then freezed for 30 seconds and then they start fighting?
@wsavage9
How can you say something like that! so direct :/ you haven't created the plugin. The problems your having are only because of your ignorance. the spawns are design so when you create the arena it creates the first spawn. You must have created the arena on top :/. to change it use: /arena alter <arena-name> 1
players keep their items because you haven't specify in the config the right option. use->
onComplete: options: - teleportOut - clearInventory
@StillSwingin
Remember that you can have enchantments in the game, would be the easier whay. effect -> Saturation config -> http:wiki.battleplugins.com/w/index.php/BA_PotionEffects
