    SurvivalArena - Survival arena minigame
    Version: 1.5 alpha

    this is my first plugin, so may contain bugs...
    when playing on a survival server for a while it may become boring, so i thought of a way to keep the survival spirit alive, and came up with this.
    this plugin creates a new world, the arena. people can enter the arena with commands and end up in a place in the top of the arena where they can select their class, and get ready. when all players are ready the game starts, and they have to survive as long as possible. they can build only inside the arena sphere, and there's a height limit so they won't be able to get out or destroy the whole arena.
    when the players die, they're out. when all players are out, the survival game ends and the arena is reset. between the start of the reset and the end of the reset the arena won't be available to anyone.
    when testing the reset functionality it took about 10 seconds to completely rebuild the whole arena.

    please, send a pm when you've found a bug, got and error, or have an idea. i'll try to fix the bugs/errors and will look at the ideas and may add them to the plugin.

    i'll just say them

    - bigger arenas
    - treasures
    - pvp arenas
    - prevent certain monsters from spawning
    - invisible, nopickup, privatechat, nobuild, noaggro and nodrop spectating
    - and that's it (for now)

    just updated to to 1.3
    this update contains somewhat bugfixes, and i forgot to remove some stuff that enabled to take a look at some stuff i planned to add... have a nice time searching for it. [updating from 1.2 means you don't have to replace the config file]

    some stuff i planned for 1.4:
    *rewriting somewhat stuff in the code
    *changing the class system a little to make exchange of classes easier
    *changing the reward system a bit
    *change the way the arena's are used
    *add config settings for each arena [such as pvp, select which monsters spawn, time limit and maybe arena theme]

    I'm really liking this plugin so far. I have a bug/complaint though; arena once built will be removed after I restart or reload the server.

    Says Arena does not exist. Maybe im missing an install thing. So i dropped the plugin in... it loads with my other ones i took out most in case a conflict all i have in now is your plugin, and bukkit permissions, It loaded fine i got in game and tried /sa create arena . .. nothing happens, i tried /survival create default like it said on q&a but i get no such command and please type help... i think that is just bukkits norm. It there supposed to be another world file now? Or maybe like I said i missed an installation part of the setup. Thank you for your time.

    Seems like i found it... in the plugin file next to config there is the arenas.cx file. I opened it and it was blank. I added Survival in the { } area that was blank. Now it created a new world that is Survival. In game i tried /sa join survival and nothing happend. But then i tyrped /sa create Survival, Then it says creating arena survival and now i can join it with /sa join survival. Hope that helps

    @metzrock no, i don't have permissions support yet. i'm having trouble figuring out how the built-in permissions system works :\

    Timothy Graham

    met u can add ur own permissions and then just tell people to use permissions perm bridge... it allows you to say whatever permissions you want. Also one q. Once the survival has started. How as an admin can i stop it? Or is there a way?

    calthor

    never heard of permissions perm bridge :\
    for now there is no way to stop the arena as an admin

You got a donation or paypal link yet? didn't see it u should set one up. Anyway good job ill keep messin with it and see how it works and let u know of any bugs. I got 2 arenas started now. But both times i had to go in that config file first and put in the name of the arena. Then in game say /sa create nameofthatfile.

    /sa create test should change the config file for arenas a little, you don't need to add an extension to it :\

    Bukkitvote
    Essentials (full)
    iConomy
    Lockette
    Log
    LogStopper

    MobileAdmin
    NoExp
    NoOrbs
    NoLagg
    Plugin Manager
