Kits

Building a kit, giving it contents and an icon, and linking it to an arena

A kit is what a player fights with. It has a display name, a menu icon, a set of contents, and one linked arena. Joining a kit from the fight menu teleports the player into that arena holding that kit.

A kit is built from three pieces: an icon and display name, contents imported from the admin's own inventory, and one linked arena

Creating a kit

/ffa kit create <name>

The name is the kit's identifier everywhere else, arena links, commands, placeholders. Give it contents next:

/ffa kit edit <kit> import contents

This reads whatever the admin is currently holding in their inventory into the kit. There is no in-menu item editor beyond that, build the loadout in your own inventory first, then import it.

Icon and display name

/ffa kit edit <kit> displayname <text>
/ffa kit edit <kit> icon <icon>

The display name is what shows on the fight menu button. The icon is the item that represents the kit there, written the same way any menu item material is.

Linking an arena

A kit does nothing until it is linked to an arena:

/ffa arena edit <arena> link <kit>

The link lives on the arena, not the kit, see Arenas and Regeneration. Joining a kit before it has a linked arena fails, there is nowhere to send the player.

Giving a kit directly

/ffa kit give <kit>
/ffa kit give <kit> to <player>

Hands over the kit's contents without teleporting anyone, useful for testing a loadout or handing it out for a reason outside a normal fight.

Deleting a kit

/ffa kit delete <kit>

This does not touch arenas linked to it, the arena is left with a link pointing at a kit that no longer exists until you link something else.

Inspecting a kit

/ffa kit info <kit>

A kit literally named kit, arena, help, leave, lobby, stats or editkits cannot be joined by typing /ffa <that name>, the command literal wins over the kit name argument. It still works from the fight menu. Avoid those names if players are expected to type the join command directly.

Player layouts

Every player who touches a kit gets their own arrangement of it, see Kit Layout Editor. To wipe every player's saved layout for a kit and fall back to the kit's own default arrangement:

/ffa kit layouts <kit> delete all
