@KreatorB
usually its just replacing the old one with the new one and make a reload.
Can yo just tell me the best way to update the jar?
@KreatorB
strange. Please send me the log again
@Aubli
how do I update it as I have allkinda bugs.... kits not working permissions not working
@KreatorB
Thanks for the gameplay videos I am really enjoying it. I just published a new version to fix the join time bug and to disable the standard kits. It will make a kit config in the Kits folder. Where is then an option to disable each kit. There is an pluginlog.info file in the zvp directory. Can you send that over so i can fix the kit bug.
Thanks
Here is little video off game play from one of the server members. WATCH THE ZVP VIDEO ENJOY, thanks ALL Please note the kit error that occurred, I was in first and my kit worked. The other 2 players followed and did not receive nothing but 1 splash potion. Have a look while you mess around with the updates and the kit system please thanks.
@killertunes
Does this issue occur when zvp is enabled but you don't play the actual game?
@Aubli
I use Spigot's Bukkit build, currently 1.8.3. I have been having an issue with Dynmap not updating for a long while now but never had time to look at it. I spent hours last night troubleshooting to find what I posted below.
@killertunes
How is the performance in general? Do you use spigot vor craftbukkit?
Houston I think I have another problem. I'm finding that having this addon enabled causes Dynmap not to update. From what I can tell Dynmap will shutoff its rendering when server ticks drop below 18 tps by default. I changed this setting down to 15 tps and still run into this issue. Whenever I use the /tps command in Minecraft it always says 20 tps. Of course all is well with ZvP disabled.
@KreatorB
Yeah will do that.
interesting update, we where 3 players and we played a game of ZVP and finished the game. Seems that after we finished the game the inventory(armor only) remained on the players. Can you look into the clearing of inventory when game finishes. May also be on my end with world inventory. I will also look into it! Thank you and will post you a few links to game play shortly!
@Aubli
In time i will do an updated version. As alway things take time. thank you for the post. I will also get you footage of some game play soon and even possible map download for it. ;-) thank you once again. keep it coming!
@KreatorB
Just watched it. Its awesome and i will add it to the description.
ZOMBIE VS PLAYER TUTORIAL Link for ZVP tutorial, hope it helps. ;-)
@Aubli
LOL, thank you... LOL you do what you need to do. sorry. I will be working on the tutorial video tomorrow for you. I have the arena going and working well. just minor things left. thanks once again!
@KreatorB
We have a really nice conversation here. Haha :D.
I, of course can do something about it. But i will need some time to add/fix all your ideas.
