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.
@alkarinv
That would be cool, It could be called arena! lol
@kahlilnc
You can always make some match type be 1v1v1v1, like arena/skirmish or battleground. If you want a special name for one, let me know I'll create one for you.
@kahlilnc
That sounds like a legit bug, I'll look into it as soon as I'm back from vacation(monday).
@Archonian
It should work just fine vault, That's all I use for example(havent used register in ages). I'll check it out with Vault and BOSE when I get back from vacation. Shouldn't be a big deal to fix, just don't have a real way to do it at the moment.
Can't get to work with Vault and BOSEconomy. It works fine with Register, however, I have plugins that are dependant on Vault. I did notice upon startup that it says Vault is defaulted, but I can't seem to find a way to change what to use.
[SEVERE] Could not pass event PluginEnableEvent to BattleArena
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at net.milkbowl.vault.economy.plugins.Economy_BOSE7.currencyNameSingular(Economy_BOSE7.java:120)
None of the other plugins I have are having any issues with Vault and Bose. Vault : 1.2.19 BOSEconomy : v0.7.3.1a Bukkit : 1.3.2-R1.0 (Build #02377) BattleArena : v3.6.8.4
Oh and about ffa. I joined then left then tried to join again but it said I was already in it. Then it started and wouldnt end because it said I was in it again. But /ffa status says otherwise. So time had to run out and no one won :(
@alkarinv List: Is a ffa event atm. But would be cool to have it under /arena so players can join any time (1v1v1v1) https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30778573/2012-10-06_09.45.23.png

@c0dpr0ftw
Thanks for responding to cpyle! didnt see that.
I want to add the option to reset an arena, and plan on doing this. To do it though you will need to have worldguard, and specify the region of the arena. But this type of regeneration is exactly why I chose to slog through learning the worldguard api... and I plan to use that knowledge!!
@cpyle0819
So to change the match time for everything you need to change this
if you just want to change the matchTime of a specific match, then add the matchTime: option to whichever one you want. Example:
@cpyle0819
okay first go to plugins->BattleArena->config from there you should see this at the top
configVersion: 1.35
What is the money on this server called moneyName: Gold
default Options (these can be overridden by each match/event type) defaultOptions:
# Match Options secondsTillBegin: 10 secondsTillMatch: 10 secondsToLoot: 5Time after winning to run around and collect loot matchTime: 600
How long do timed matches last, (in seconds) matchUpdateInterval: 30For timed matched, how long between sending players match update
edit the "matchTime: 600
How long do timed matches last, (in seconds)"
600 = 10 mins
hope this helps
also, could you make it so after a arena is over the region of it gets "reset"? I would love for there to be some sort of builder class that i could make.
thanks again
I can't seem to successfully change how long the matches last... I''ll have four people in diamond armor fighting each other and only 1:30sec for the to fight. Would it be possible to get some clear instruction on how to do this?
@alkarinv:
That is excellent news! I will convert our PVP Arena to BattleCraft now and await your release with CTF.
As well, I'd be willing to help out with any testing you made need.
Thanks again.
@alkarinv
thank you :)
@clutchcraft
I can definitely do a CTF, it's already completed but in beta. I'm back on Monday from vacation so give me 2 or 3 days after that and it should be ready to be released.
@Tonysp
Ugh, well I'll mark that down as a bug, see if I can get a fix in when i have some time to code.
@kahlilnc
If you have multiple 1v1 arenas, and others like 2v2 or 1v1v1v1, usually you just get to play the 1v1, (i really need to put in the ability to select an arena (big priority for me)). The reason is when someone joins a queue, it looks through to see if there is an arena that matches. So if 2 people are in the queue, and it finds a 1v1 arena, it will put them in that one. So often times a larger arena never gets used because there is a smaller arena that can fit the players.
If you only have 2v2 arenas then doing /skirmish join should work, and it should queue you for 2v2's.
pastebin me your config, and an image of your arena list. /arena list and I'll see if you can type something different to make it work.
From the looks of the great job you guys have done here, I'd like to run this instead of PVP Arena.
Is there any chance that you would consider a CTF game mode?
@alkarinv
Hm so when ever I set more then 2 teams it doesn't work and says something like Not a valid 1 v 1 arena or something like that. +Plus I set 4 spawns
@alkarinv
Thanks a bunch I will try it out for sure.
@alkarinv
Yep, i am using v3.6.8.3.
@owenftw
Yeah, thats bad. I put up a fix for that right now, in version 3.6.8.4. Now players will need arena.<matchtype>.duel in order for them to duel, or accept a duel.
people can duel each other even when I have gave them no permission to do so and rated duels are disabled in config.
They can also get in a world they don't have permission to? -.-
how do I disable it so people can't send duel requests? I only want /arena join
@c0dpr0ftw Some of these don't work (light night vision) as bukkit hasnt implemented them yet, but here is the list
@Tonysp
So do you want them to get items on when they spawn in the arena? like if they die and respawn they will get these items again. If so put the items here.
If you want to give them items when the lose the match then put them inside of losers:
Oh, and are you using the most recent BattleArena v3.6.8.3+ ? I thought I fixed the counting kills thing.
