War
War - Minecraft PVP Arenas (TDM, CTF & more!)
Version: v1.9
War lets you create warzones, arenas that host team deathmatch and capture-the-flag battles.
Features:
As a player, you get a fast-paced PVP experience in SMP.
- Join a battle by entering through the warzone lobby. There is one gate per team (team diamond, gold or iron): step in to join that team.
- Your inventory is saved when you join a battle, and restored when you exit.
- When you die inside a warzone, you get instantly teleported back to your spawn, and one life is taken from your team's life pool. When that pool runs out, the other teams score a point!
- Steal the enemy team flag to score for your team.
- Fight over monuments, control points that, when captured, restore health to your teammates.
- Return the cake home to score a point for your team and refill your life pool.
- Capture the bomb and run for your enemy's spawn to blow it up. Careful! If you get attacked at close range you'll blow up.
As a warzone maker, you have total control.
- Take advantage cool landscape features or existing player-build structures and incorporate them in new warzones.
- Tons of options: friendly-fire, auto-assign, turn off PVP outside warzones, define respawn loadouts specific to each zone, and more!
War lets you keep mayhem contained in the warzones.
- All the blocks in a zone are reset at the end of every battle.
- Players are prevented from entering or leaving a zone - except through the designated warzone lobby - by a magic glass wall.
- A warhub can be created to link all your zones together.

Hello! Great plugin, I have been using this with my friends for quite some time.
I have, however, found an annoying bug. On server reload, all item attributes saved to warzones are erased! Is there any way this could be fixed, or is there some kind of workaround someone knows of?
Can you make it that only certain poeple can access a kit so not everyone can access every kit?

It's a tricky one, what I do is build a replica of how i want it to look (has to be same size and shape), then I move the exisitng lobby it creates onto this, and it seems to take on the blocks. I've had multiple successes/failures with trying to modify the lobby, and find the guide on how to change blocks etc to be inaccurate or just not working. it does need to be more flexible and editable. This is true of the arena's also. I'm not saying my way works, i may just have found a glitch that allows me to transpose the lobby.

Many thanks!
My players still don't teleport back to spawn when they are killed, has anyone figured out how to fix this.
Im using this one: Dropbox link to 1.9 https://www.dropbox.com/s/jfv4bj8f94w7fhg/war-1.9-SNAPSHOT.jar?dl=0
I was wondering how to build on the war lobby

Agreed, mind sharing? MIT License allows for distribution.
@frizzbee30
can you please provide a link for download
I'm actually using war 1.9 snapshot, can't recall where I got it, prob jenkins. Works fine though
@KookieMons7er
I found the issue was I had combatLog installed, and this prevented the player from "teleporting" while in combatlog. I disabled the world that the warzone was in and the player teleported back after death :)
@kugick
Using this version http://kugick.net/downloads/war/war-v1.8.3.jar
the teleport between zone and warhub doesnt work, it puts you back in the same location and says welcome to the zone or welcome to the hub but never teleports you there
@kugick
You guys are awesome!
great :D
THX Youuuu !!!!!! :)
@frizzbee30
@Cldfire
Here last compiled build guys: http://kugick.net/downloads/war/war-v1.8.3.jar
There is maybe some little bugs, but its better than nothing.
For the rest I am working with cmastudios on an update but we don't have much time currently.
I think this has effectively been abandoned, looking at the jenkins and at the main war site and it's forums :(
@frizzbee30
Same... This plugin is one of its kind. I'm going to test 1.8.1 with Spigot 1.8, hopefully it works...
Authors last login May 2014, bit worrying :(
How do I obtain the 1.9 dev build? Like others have stated, I can't get past the login page on Jenkins...
