BattleArena allows you to create your own competitions on a Minecraft server through config files. Nearly all aspects of game logic are configurable, ranging from team sizes, spawn points, maps, game mechanics and many other features.
Active games in BattleArena are referred to as Competitions. BattleArena natively supports two competition types:
A game that is started when a certain condition is met (i.e. number of players), or is always active. These games can be joined at any time, as long as there are available maps. Common examples may include Spleef, SkyWars, Survival Games, or Capture the Flag.
A game that is started based on a certain interval, or when triggered by a server administrator. These games cannot be joined normally unless the event is active. Common examples may include a bracket tournament, deathmatch, or a free for all.
Most all of the configurable features in BattleArena will lie in the respective .yml files located in plugins/BattleArena/arenas. These can be modified, removed, and new ones can be added.
The full user guide for BattleArena can be found at the User Guide on the BattleDocs.
BattleArena is highly extendable and has wide support for creating your own matches, events, and even competition types. It is an event driven framework, meaning external plugins can easily add or modify behavior in numerous ways.
Full documentation for the BattleArena API can be found on the Developer Guide on the BattleDocs.
BattleArena is a framework at heart, meaning that the base plugin comes with a very standard feature set, with the bulk of additional content coming from modules and extensions. The following extensions and modules build on top of BattleArena, and allow you to further extend BattleArena's capability.
These are plugins which add new modes to BattleArena.
Statistics are tracked by our sister plugin BattleTracker. This adds functionality such as leaderboards and ranking to BattleArena. See the BattleTracker page for more information.
These extend on existing BattleArena functionality and can (often) be used in any mode, even custom ones.

Special thanks to alkarin_v for writing the original BattleArena plugin back in 2011. While very little of the original code survives today, this laid the foundation of what would eventually become the BattlePlugins suite and the innovations that followed.
