Step by step tutorial​

  1. Make sure you have the required permissions in order to use set-up commands. Type op yourname in console for that.
  2. Now you can set the main lobby using bw setLobby. Now it will restart the server. Join again and continue this tutorial.
  3. Now upload a map on your server, join it and let's set it. Start creating a map with bw setupArena <worldName>. Type the folder name in order to create an arena. The plugin will show you a gui letting you choose the way you want to do the set-up: assisted or advanced. The assisted mode is more easier and faster, the advanced mode instead, provides more commands and takes longer to finish. Use assisted and continue reading. Multiverse plugin it's not required.
  4. Now set the waiting lobby, the place where players will be teleported when they join the arena. Type: bw setWaitingSpawn. It will now search for teams on current map based on colors. If you are satisfied of the found teams, just click on the chat message to auto-create them, else use bw createTeam <name> <color> to create them manually. Example: bw createTeam Tutorial Blue Your location doesn't matter when you type that command. Type bw createTeam to see a list of available colors. Teams are unlimited.
  5. (Optional) If you want your waiting lobby to be removed when the game stars select it like a WorldGuard region using the following commands: bw waitingPos 1 in the top right corner and bw waitingPos 2 in the bottom left corner.
  6. Now go on each island and type bw setSpawn without any team name provided because the plugin will auto-detect it.
  7. Set the shop NPC for each island using bw setShop without any team name provided because the plugin will auto-detect it.
  8. Set the upgrades NPC for each island using bw setUpgrade without any team name provided because the plugin will auto-detect it.
  9. Now it's time to set iron and gold generators for each team. If you want to set the iron and gold generator at the same location go on each island and type bw addGenerator without any others arguments. If you want to set them at different locations, just provide the generator name bw setGenerator iron/ gold.
  10. Now it's time to set the diamond and emerald generators. Use bw addGenerator diamond for creating a new diamond generator and bw addGenerator emerald for adding a new emerald generator.
  11. One more command and it's done! Use bw save to save the world and exiti the setup mode.
  12. If you want to play on your new map enable it using: bw enableArena <mapName>
