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.
Spent awhile configurating everything and setting up all the arenas and it works pretty much perfectly! Nice plugin, but one thing. When two people join a 1v1 ffa match, it waits in the queue forever, even after the 60 second countdown and class pick. I have two spawns set and only red and blue slots even allowed, what could be the cause of this?
@macapaca99
it is updated to 1.7.9 ...including all previous Minecraft versions.
However, if anyone wants a 1.8 version that's also compatible with WorldGuard v6.x and WorldEdit v6.x: here it is http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/battlearena2/
can you please update it to the latest version of 1.7.9
I get rated battles not working. I have put the battle tracker plugin and have rated Battle Arena True. http://gyazo.com/ea7625164447c3834b2a29ae6f486810
@Zach443
When he said 'mob arena support', I thought he was talking about hooking into the plugin http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/mobarena/ .And I was thinking to myself: "Why would we hook into MobArena ?" lol.
Me personally, I prefer plugins that focus on something... and do it very well. I don't really like plugins that try to do everything. When a plugin tries to do too much, it has the potential to become bloated & laggy. However, there is a category of plugins that is a happy medium: Modular & Extensible Plugins, like BattleArena.
Eventho, it's my personal opinion that Admins should use MobArena for PVE and BattleArena for PVP... BattleArena does give people the power to create their own types of Arenas: In this case, a mob-arena extension. Altho, creating such an extension seems like a waste of time when you could just use MobArena.

Here is our wiki page on item syntax. The sytax for adding lore to your item will be there :)

@Europia79
He means where mobs spawn and players fight them, instead of each other.
@Junit151
Heya Junit151, can you be very specific about what you mean ? What exactly is 'mob arena support' ? Thanks man! Have a good day!
@Junit151
Yep, as the user below stated, it is totally possible to create a mob arena with BattleArena.
@Junit151
Don't be lazy, you can manage to create a mob arena easily with the tools BA provides, and with other custom mob modifier plugin. You just have to create a new arena where it's won by killing mobs or surviving the time, and add spawns with timers so they activete like 10s after the game started to change it's difficulty, it isn't very hard just try to do it.
After all this time, still no mob arena support? I am going to have to drop this plugin.
@NewtPvP
BattleArena does not need to update to 1.8 because it's already compatible.
However, I will be updating BattleArena to support WorldGuard and WorldEdit v6.0.0
BattleArena v3.9.9 has partial support. I'll finish when I'm not sick anymore.
@NewtPvP
Oh god plz remove that link and send it via message.
@Zach443
Thank you! Estimated time until its updated?

@NewtPvP
Dude, what are you talking about when you say "Its out." ? What is the download link ?
@Zach443
Oh. Ok i got it. But what do i use to replace the placeholders so that just the names show? {winnername} and {losername} ??
@NewtPvP
It will indeed be updated. For a more detailed info about what is going on, see this page:
https://github.com/BattlePluginsDev/BattleArena/issues/3
Will this plugin be updating to 1.8? Its out.
@Done84
Those numbers are statistics from BattleTracker, so if you don't have BattleTracker it will stay default. [1250] would be a players rank on the server, and (0:0) would be their record (Wins:losses) for that arena type.
You can change almost all of the messages in BattleArena in your messages.yml file, located in the BattleArena directory in your plugins folder. If you don't have BattleTracker, you can remove those two fields in that file.
