@Europia79 spleefarena say that it can't find a valid version of worldedit....
@JFischer00
@Drobberz
What are the errors ?
@Europia79
Thanks, I did end up figuring it out, but nice to know I did it right. By the way, I second the request for an ArenaSpleef update that works with WorldEdit 6, WorldGuard 6, and Spigot/CraftBukkit 1.8.
Can please ArenaSpleef be updated to 1.8! :C
win\lose counter is not working on spigot 1.8. Please help(
@CloudeLecaw
i changed the format for the versions... lemme know if you still get that error or it goes away.
BattleArena does not have a duel command, however, it does have a duel sub-command.
What you are seeing is hopefully my next fix for BattleArena... To make sure that custom commands are being registered with Bukkit and working. It appears that you have made your own custom command called duel... You did this via one of the competitions/*.yml files.
Despite the alarming message, the command should still get registered with Bukkit and it should work. Try your custom commands, and lemme know if they work, or don't work. Thanks
@budopey
Interesting idea. Lemme know if it works.
Also, i'm releasing a new version of BombArena tonight... one that will be backwards compatible with older versions of BattleArena.
@JFischer00
For path/node "<arenaName>.onSpawn.options" the value is a list. Add an entry
For the above example, you would have to edit /plugins/BombArena/BombArenaConfig.yml
For most other arenas, you would edit /plugins/BattleArena/competitions/*ArenaConfig.yml
@Europia79
Thanks so much! We're going to give it a shot and I'll give you feedback after we test it
@JFischer00
That should be default behavior.
@JFischer00
Ok...so the economy integration works great! But is there a way I can have players choose a class at first and then get the items for that class every time they respawn? For example, a player enters an arena and the match starts. He/she chooses class X, they get the items for that class. They are playing and die. They respawn and get the items for class X again without having to pay again. Is there a way to do this?

I am actually NOT sure what the distribution method will be for modules.
I kinda want BattleArena to come with some default modules tho... out of the box... Easier on the end user. Then they can enabled the modules that they wanna use, and the ones that they don't want... those simply don't run if not specifically enabled by Admins.
Also, developers can build their own modules. Just compile into a .class file (easy) and drop into the /modules/ folder to further customize BattleArena. And if BattleArena comes with default modules, then they will be examples for developers. (built-in documentation in the JAR).
Like I said: The reason that I want to use them is to allow players to play Paintball in ANY arena type... like BombArena & HostageArena, for example. But I'm sure there are other uses.
@budopey
I will get a tutorial on Module up on the wiki either today or tomorrow. I'll link you to it when it's done :)

http://rainbowcraft.sytes.net/download/BattleArena/v3.9.9.14/
Okay, it's done. Test that out and lemme know if it works. You have to change a config.yml option: "defaultOptions.defaultDuelOptions" and set the value to
That means 5.5%. (Rake is a poker term. It's a percentage of the pot that the house keeps).
@Europia79
Please do I would love to use that as a feature!
@werwew19
That's an awesome idea. I very busy tho, so keep bothering me non-stop until I implement it. Also, i'll have to look at Alkarin's code to see where he has put the current implementation.
@madtomic
What would make you think the plugin was not updated to 1.7.9? BattleArena has worked on 1.7.9 since day one :P
@Europia79
No clue if I am just lackadaisical and missing this stuff. However with the wagering system is it possible to have 5-10% of the prize pot go to the server instead of the player to create a money sink.
@werwew19
http://wiki.battleplugins.org/BattleArena/Dueling http://wiki.battleplugins.org/BattleArena/Permissions http://wiki.battleplugins.org/BattleArena/config.yml
You can already do this. The command is /<arenaType> duel otherPlayer money 100
I linked the perm wiki so that you know what permission nodes to use. Also, you can setup defaultDuelOptions: in the config.yml.
