Arena setup

Solar stores arena bounds and spawn points, then uses FAWE to save a schematic and paste copies into the arenas world for matches. Create and configure arenas in the world that contains the arena build.

  1. Stand in the world containing the build and create an arena:

    /arenas create <name>
  2. Stand at the first corner and set edge 1, then stand at the opposite corner and set edge 2:

    /arenas set-edge <name> 1
    /arenas set-edge <name> 2
  3. Stand at each team’s spawn and set both spawn points:

    /arenas set-spawn <name> 1
    /arenas set-spawn <name> 2
  4. For party FFA matches, also set a center spawn:

    /arenas set-center <name>
  5. Save and register the arena:

    /arenas finalize <name>

Finalization requires both edges and both team spawns. The center is needed for FFA; it is not required for ordinary team matches. Solar writes the schematic under its data folder at schem/<name>.schem and records the arena in arenas.yml.

Kits select from their maps list. By default, a kit allows every arena (*). To restrict a kit, use /kit set-flags <kit> --maps <arena1,arena2>; arena names are comma-separated with no spaces. See Kits for the other kit flags.

The arena setup commands are player-only. Their permissions are listed in the command reference.
