ZArena
Source | Bug Reports | Forums
A fun arena based zombie survival game, vaguely based off of Call of Duty Zombies, only taken to a whole new level. Setup an arena in minutes and fight against wave after wave of unique, customizable zombies to see how far you can get before being overrun!

Features
- Fully customizable zombies, skeletons, and wolves. Design your own types using YAML files. You can customize path finding range, speed, damage, equipment, special abilities, damage immunities, special effects, and more!
- Unlimited waves. The only limit is how far you can get without being killed!
- Wolf and skeleton waves.
- Easy to make arenas, with definable spawns, purchase signs, toll signs for doors, and death spawns.
- Games automatically run without maintenance. When a game ends, you have the option (in the config) to start a vote for which map should be run next.
- Different gamemodes to keep the game interesting. Such as, a hardcore gamemode, and a scavenger gamemode. These, like custom zombies, can be created using YAML files.
- Incredibly customizable. Along with customizable zombies, you can also customize the number of zombies per wave, the health of zombies per wave, starting items for players, how often wolf/skeleton waves occur, how much money you get per kill, whether or not the game auto runs, whether or not players auto-join the game, and more!
- Smart zombies with pathfinding, so players can't just hole up on one end of the map and only have to face the zombies that spawn near them.
- Built in kill counter to show who the top killers in the game are.
Spout Features
- You can press the 'o' key to configure personal spout options.
- You can press the ' ~ ' key to view a custom tab screen, with shows the stats of all ingame players.
- Entities can have custom textures.
- A custom voting popup comes up during voting.
Potential Upcoming Features
- Option for zombies to open doors instead of just destroying them.
- Support for World Guard, so that you can set a region for each level. The region will reset after each game back to its original state, and players/zombies will be unable to leave the region. Non-ZArena entities will also be unable to spawn in this region. Having a level have a region will be optional.
- More entity abilities and special effects.

is it possible to move the spout blood of the top-right corner to the top-left corner instead ?
Hi, I've installed the plugin and created an arena but, when I try to CHANGE something in the config.yml and I reload the serveur, the config is reload to default. I mean, I want to set
Game World : IntoTheWorld (not world) Game Leave Location : IntoTheWorld (not world too) Xp bar: true Disable commands : true Wave start delay : 30
But when I reload, it goes to
Game World : world Game Leave Location : world Xp bar: false Disable commands : false Wave start delay : 10
I precise I DO save the config after any change I make so it isnt a save problem
(sry for my poor english, french man are not reputated for their english skills)
@jhs232
Not currently, no.
@kabbx
Ok, thanks for answering :)
EDIT: On the previous post I meant if it was possible for zombies/skeletons to wear enchanted armor. I didn't see that I hadn't written that. Is it possible to do that?
@jhs232
That's already possible, see here.
Is it possible to add enchantments to items/armor? If it is, how do I do it? If it isn't possible could you add it?
Also, it would be nice if we could add color to leather armor worn by skeletons/zombies.

Use the pm feature to send me the crash report.
Or just post it here...it's not like it has anything absurdly important that you need to keep private.
Okay, the problem isnt Lockette.. It still doesnt work, also without Lockette Anyone a idea?
Edit: Ive got these plugins:
Edit 2: Ive deleted Zarena and reinstalled, created a new arena and tried again, the signs doesnt work
@kabbx Well, i tried everything... With caps without, anything haha. But it doesnt work, so now im going to check if the signs does work without lockette (i think its lockette, cause it breaks much plugins with signs). I will post the result!
lol how can i
how can u send the crash report only to you
@detonator23
Not without a crash report.
This Plugin is great i get to round one and then when it hits round 2 its crashes my server CAN ANYONE HELP ME?!
@manpower13
This is intentional so game moderators can stop/start the game quickly without kicking everyone out, which had been a problem on the server I administrate.
This will be fixed in the next update, thanks!
Make sure to use correct capitalization. ZPay/ZBuy, not Zpay, Zbuy.
Very nice plugin, just a few things i want to say: Bugs: I you start a game with /zarena start, after that you do /zarena join and you join a game, you can do /zarena stop and it says: Stopped the game. But youre still in the game, so you have to do /zarena leave before it really ends the game. Perhaps you could make if you joined a game and you type: /zarena stop, it leaves automaticly?
If you make: only Zarena commands possible during the match in the config.yml, it will block the zarena commands like /zarena leave also! So you cant leave anymore, or cant stop, you cant do any command at all.
I have also the problem, if i create a sign: Zpay, 250, -uo, OpenDoor; It doesnt see him, so it doesnt work. Also the sign Zbuy, wood, sword, 60; Doesnt work, whereever i create it, it doesnt see the sign. Does the plugin Lockette break with Zarena? Maybe thats the problem?
I have a good system with wooden doors and world guard. Where i have define a region called barrier and players can only build there so they can replace the doors if they get smashed. And also one more idea lol sorry but a random box where you can config which guns or weapons you want and they buy it and it gives you a random weapon/potion.
@willkiller1234
Not with this plugin, currently, though that's a cool idea. In the meantime, you could probably do something like that with Variable Triggers, though it's a very complicated plugin to use.
Is there a way to make a barrier and have the players be able to rebuild it if it has been broken by a zombie?
@willkiller1234
Make sure you set the doors to only be usable once. People might just be closing them to be annoying.
I'm not sure why that would happen, if they join midgame, they should be treated as dead, unless it's only wave 1.
Also, the timer thing is a good idea, I'll look into adding it.
I also had a problem with doors not staying open that people buy. and people can also type /za leave when your die and then right away type /za join to hop right back in the game. Maybe you can add a way where if they died in the current round they have to wait till next round to hop in the game.
