MobArena Boss and Wave Thread

Why doesn't it work for me? I already posted in the mobarena thread a few days ago. It just a normal random wave on wave 5!

Code:

        waves:
            recurrent:
                def1:
                    type: default
                    priority: 1
                    frequency: 1
                    monsters:
                        zombies: 10
                        skeletons: 10
                        spiders: 10
                        creepers: 10
                        wolves: 10
                spec1:
                    type: special
                    priority: 2
                    frequency: 4
                    monsters:
                        powered-creepers: 10
                        zombie-pigmen: 10
                        angry-wolves: 10
                        humans: 10
            Single:
                boss1:
                    type: boss
                    wave: 1
                    monster: chicken
                    health: middle
                    abilities: chain-lightning
                    ability-interval: 10
                    ability-announce: true

 

make "Single:" lowercase, so "single:"
also, wave 5 is going to be a normal wave no matter what with that config, your boss is going to be wave 1.

 

Okay. I tried this and it still doesn't work. Now thats my config again. "single" is now written is lowercase letters.

Code:

        waves:
            recurrent:
                def1:
                    type: default
                    priority: 1
                    frequency: 1
                    monsters:
                        zombies: 10
                        skeletons: 10
                        spiders: 10
                        creepers: 10
                        wolves: 10
                spec1:
                    type: special
                    priority: 2
                    frequency: 4
                    monsters:
                        powered-creepers: 10
                        zombie-pigmen: 10
                        angry-wolves: 10
                        humans: 10
            single:
                boss1:
                    type: boss
                    wave: 5
                    monster: chicken
                    health: middle
                    abilities: chain-lightning
                    ability-interval: 10
                    ability-announce: true

I really really want bosses. :/

Wave 5 consists of some creepers and wolves and zombies...

 

change the health to medium. it's probably tossing the wave due to 'bad values'. Check your server log on start up/reload to see if it says "Wave boss1 not used due to X Y Z" or something along those lines.

If that doesn't fix it, please post any continuing questions in the Mob Arena thread, and I'll help you there. I would like to keep help in this thread to a minimum so you can see more created bosses

 

Worked. Thank you. Changed to medium.

 

Any way to make bosses appear at specific waves, but also have a chance to pick a boss randomly out of x amount of bosses?

For example, I want to have the first boss be either an Easy Chicken, Easy Cow, or Easy Sheep. When they get to the boss wave, they get one of those bosses, randomly. Then, as they move on, those bosses don't continue to show up.

 

The Tricky Slime Boss

Made this Boss just to try out some of the skills, its more annoying then difficult because everyone (including the boss) will be warping all over the place.

It makes a good starter or 2nd tier boss.

Code:

                 TrickySlimeBoss:
                    type: boss
                    wave: 10
                    monster: slime_huge
                    health: medium
                    abilities: shuffle-positions, throw-target, fetch-target, warp-to-player
                    ability-interval: 2

 

Wow the interval is very high in speed XD

 

I love this mob! All Fear The Thunder Chicken! I am so putting one in my mob arena...

 

I have one problem - where to set how many waves? I know on 1.8 or even older.. ppl can fight until they die.. but now (im on 1.0) after few waves, boss appear.. and then is end (and they even not get kicked from arena).
I used that default waves setup from tutorial.. + I dont see boss doing any abilities (throwing arrows, rooting target.. just some damage..)

Although I will say this: Your bosses look properly set up, so I'm not sure why their abilities aren't working. I know that MobArena hasn't been built against Minecraft/Bukkit 1.0, so there are bound to be issues. If you're looking for a final wave option, as in once you reach wave X the arena is done, try the latest version of Mob Arena (94.3.24)

 

I had the code on wave ? or I create a new line?

                    ability-interval: 3
                    ability-announce: true
                    abilities: fireballs,lightning-aura,disorient-target,throw-nearby,shuffle-positions

Can someone tell me what I have done wrong?
While doing the mobarena, after I beated the first boss, no new waves are coming.
The pigman also won't use it's abilitys, and he is dead when I hit him 4 times with a diamond sword... :O
Here is the config:

 

The main thing you've done wrong is post in the wrong thread. Granted you've posted bosses and waves in the boss and wave thread, this isn't where you get help for it. Post the same thing in the Mob Arena thread and someone will help you. Also provide the version number of MobArena you're using as well as your craft bukkit version to help expedite the process over there.

 

Annoying Fish:
This little bugger is a nice easy starting boss that can easily avoid being hit.

Code:

CrazyFish:
                    type: boss
                    wave: 5
                    monster: silverfish
                    health: medium
                    abilities: shuffle-positions, flood, root-target, disorient-target, throw-nearby
                    ability-interval: 1

 

A really annoying cave spider. I turned off the ability announcements because of the high interval:

Code:

                CaveSpiderBoss:
                    type: boss
                    wave: 20
                    monster: cave_spider
                    health: low
                    ability-interval: 1
                    abilities: warp-to-player, fetch-distant, throw-target, disorient-target, shuffle-positions
                    ability-announce: false

Is anyone else having trouble getting bosses to work in general? I've made several of my own in the config as well as with the WaveEditor. Also, to even further test, I tried the example setup from the wiki. Non changing ANY setting AND changing settings, either way, I cannot get them to work. The bosses will spawn, not use abilities, and the arena will not go to the next wave. No matter which one I have tested, the arena just.. pauses almost? Is anyone else getting this? I'm running:

CraftBukkit version: 1.0.1 RB
MobArena version: v0.94.3.24

Any help would be great! Thanks!

 

This isn't a thread for help with MobArena boss config issues, it's for posting your currently made boss waves. Please ask this question in the MobArena thread, and someone should answer you there (maybe even me )

 

Code:

boss1:
type: boss
priority: 1
frequency: 15
monsters: slime_huge
health: psycho
abilities: arrows, fireballs, fire-aura, lightning-aura, living-bomb, chain-lightning, shuffle-positions, flood, throw-nearby, throw-distant
ability-announce: true

this is MA BOSS!!! xD

 

a few things things loganla

• First, edit your original post instead of flooding the thread.
• Asking politely is always going to get you a positive helpful response before using caps/begging
• Having patience to wait for someone to reply is always nice too, instead of posting again 4 to 5 minutes after your initial post. Not everyone who uses this plugin that can help you watches the forums 24/7
• Lastly, see this quote from the first post:

Now go find the actual MobArena thread and ask politely there, without tons of caps or implied vulgarity. (Hint: it's linked in the first post)

 

Code:

                fire_demon:
                    type: boss
                    wave: 20
                    monster: blaze
                    health: psycho
                    abilities: warp-to-player, fireballs
                    ability-announce: true
                    ability-interval: 2 

I went for something a little simple.

 

Hey epic plugin i love it.
i am trying to add bosses but for some reason it gives a error telling me
that "villager" and "snowman" are invalid monster types in "arenas.thenest.waves.single.villager_assault" or the name of the wave they are in.
I have not tried any other mobs so far so it may not be just these mobs.

 

if you want to use those monsters, you need to use the dev build, as 94.3.24 isn't able to use them. Also, any further questions should be posted in the MobArena thread, not here
